Applying the Balanced Scorecard Method to Explore the Value of Enterprise Risk
Management - A Proposed Framework with Turner and Townsend
Research Background
Research Execution
This research had a qualitative research design, and an inductive approach. In other
words, the researcher relied solely on qualitative data, and aimed at answering the
aforementioned research questions, rather than introducing hypotheses.
Data collection and data analysis were conducted in two phases:
Phase one entailed conducting seven one-to-one semi-structured interviews with
project managers in the company; and phase two entailed unstructured interviews /
discussions with the Head of Major Programmes Advisory Group, a Director in the
Major Programmes Advisory Group, and a Senior Project Manager. In the second
phase of the research, the application of Soft Systems Methodology was seen as a
means of bridging the gap between the theory and practice of ERM. In other words,
introducing a ‘generic’ concept of ERM (based on input from Deloach, 2000; COSO
ERM, 2016; and ISO 31000, 2013), enabled a discussion on the value of ERM in
general, rather than a particular ERM framework or standard.
