Does anyone know of examples of private companies that do research hiring "science of science" people or "meta scientists" to do research to improve their internal processes?

What kind of internal processes? In general there's one group of people per internal process, but not that many "general" practices.

I'm thinking specifically of people who do research with the instrumental goal of improving an org's own research processes/efficiency/etc.

I do. We have some internally and more externally (hired consultants). It's really valuable.

Really need to seriously include the organization and management sciences, here. There are literally decades of investment in research on these exact questions outside of economics. And that doesn’t begin to address the ton of relevant research in adjacent areas.
