The APCs support the open-access dissemination of research findings and cover various administrative and editorial costs associated with the management and publication of manuscripts. Upon acceptance of an article, either the authors or their affiliated institutions are expected to cover this fee. The fee provides for:
    • Standard publication of manuscripts up to twelve (12) pages. An additional charge of $10 per page will be applied for manuscripts exceeding this length.
    • DOI registration for each article.

Fee Waiver Policy: The Editor holds the discretion to grant a full or partial waiver of the author fees under specific circumstances, such as financial constraints, unusually long manuscripts, or other valid reasons presented by the author at the time of submission. Authors seeking a waiver should indicate their request in the "comments to the Editor" section during submission. It's essential to request a waiver at this stage, as late requests are more likely to be declined. Importantly, the decision to grant a waiver will not influence the outcome of the manuscript review process.

Waiver Policy

Policy Overview: APTISI Transactions on Management (ATM) acknowledges that certain circumstances may warrant a waiver or reduction of author fees. The journal is committed to ensuring that financial constraints or other challenges do not hinder the publication of valuable research.

  • Financial limitations faced by the author or their institution.
