Academic discourse emphasises the need for more customer-oriented approach.

For organisations in the industrial and geographical setting covered in this study, the insights from this study ofer relevant cues for optimising customer accounting operationalisation and maximising the organisational performance impact. The limitations of this study have been acknowledged and critical directions for further knowledge development fagged. |
