By minimizing costs and have the required staff members at any given time ensures that you get the required findings in the organization.
For a researcher, both qualitative and quantitative researches are important in understanding the dynamics of the research. Qualitative studies may focus specific on case studies in organisations providing a frame work i.e. to judge the effectiveness of flexible resourcing in another organisations. However, this approach may be biased since organisations have different corporate cultures; there are no two organisations that are completely alike.

Qualitative research may help to identify factors that enhance or impede findings across various organizations through individual case studies.
Most researches focus on literature review at their initial stages so as to understand how a particular topic relates to similar works.
