One-page Management System
The one-page management system (OPMS) is a set of methods to help people generate ideas through systematic brainstorming and to structure (or organize) ideas as needed for effective resolution of problems. G. S. Chandy invented OPMS, based on John N. Warfield's "interactive management" and "structural approach to system design".

OPMS aims to enable 'people-at-large' as well as experts to create and implement usable systems of all kinds—individual, organisational or societal.
