6 CONCLUSION
6.5 Future research
This empirically focused case study research answered a specific research ques-tion. During the research process, several future research topics were identified.
Generally in strategy implementation and SCM field there are not too many em-pirically case study researches published. Most of the research is academically focused and do not have a strong empirical relation. More empirical case study researches are needed to fulfil business needs and to develop companies opera-tions.
Positivistic strategic management research has been published and that is the main recommendation to future research. Empirical qualitative case study re-search has been published, but positivistic quantitative rere-search seems to be pub-lished in this research area rarely. Strategy management, strategy implementation, SCM, SD are the areas where there are major possibilities to make quantitative empirical research together with companies.
