1.2. Delimitations of the Study

The main limitation of this study was context, mostly respondents filled the questionnaire as they
had the first hand information about the industrial processes and techniques that result in either
cutting edge or poor performance. Results were totally based on the respondent’s opinions and
their sincerity in filling the questionnaire can’t be assessed. The study only covered one sector,
there was no comparison with other sectors in the same region, where the results could be
different. It was a cross-sectional study and results were concluded based on cross-sectional data.
