Quantitative Management Theory is realized through measurable data and mathematical models. The theories are worked out through mathematical games and problem solving. The results are then acted upon for decision making. During World War II‚ mathematicians‚ physicists‚ and other scientists joined together to solve military problems. The quantitative school of management is a result of the research conducted during World War II. The quantitative approachto management involves the use of quantitative
