The scope of your research is determined by what you want to achieve (your objectives) and the types of decisions it needs to help you make.

Before you get started it is essential to define your objectives. This is the most important part of the process and will avoid wasting time and effort in later stages.
Ask yourself these three questions:
  1. What is the purpose of the research?.
  2. What information is being sought?.
  3. How will the information be used?
