Further delimitations of this study

Further delimitations of this study are that only a small fraction of the identified problems was analyzed and that no measures of results of the proposed solution took place. During interviews, there are several problem areas discovered, major and minor. Once the scope is narrowed down further, the observations and employee questionnaire provides a lot of different areas within the smaller scope that could have been further studied. However, in order to generate accurate and thorough solutions, only a few aspects are dealt with. It cannot nevertheless be excluded that some of the proposed solutions may deal with more than the intended areas, having a whiplash effect on other departments than the manufacturing. As for the measurement of the proposed solution and the outcome, there was no time to implement, let alone measure. Changes takes time and some effects might not be observed until first after a few years of persistent work from the management team. This is unfortunate because the scholarly value, as well as the value created for Rolls-Royce and other organizations, would be greatly increased if measurements were feasible.
