About International Foundation for Production Research (IFPR)

Interest in production research intensified in the 1960s. Professor Norman Dudley, former Head of the Production Engineering Department at The University of Birmingham in England, founded the International Journal for Production Research. The first issue of IJPR was published in November 1961 by Taylor and Francis. The journal grew, but Editor Dudley struggled to locate appropriate manuscripts for his fledgling journal. He and the faculty at the University of Birmingham decided that a conference was needed to attract more manuscripts for the journal. The first International Conference on Production Research, ICPR was founded as a result.
