Abstract

Having identified the research objectives, required to meet the challenges of the design and use of formal MCS in BSRs in practice, relevance of the research project must now be assessed from a theoretical point of view. This can be done in four steps. First, the theoretical starting position needs to be clarified by identifying relevant research streams (chapter 2.1) and research gaps within these areas (chapter 2.2). Then, research questions can be developed and implications for the theoretical relevance can be derived (chapter 2.3).
