Editorial

Abstract

This is the third G&P issue with all articles in English and Portuguese according to the editorial policy presented in 2005. We thus initiate a globalization process of our journal that also includes international associated editors, whose along with national associated editors will proceed coordinating the articles submission process and also the quality improvement of our scientific journal in all areas-work strategy and organization, operational research and quantitative methods, quality, production planning and control and logistic. Therefore, the G&P journal intend to advance the projection of its author's publications worldwide. The periodic electronic publication in English will facilitate our goal. However, G&P will not change the submission process; it will accept works in Portuguese and, for those approved, will request a posterior translation to English.
