Our research work is based on long-term cooperation and development work with our industrial partners. We examine - through a management accounting lens - diverse topics relevant and current for our business partners. Cost and profitability management in one form or another is a common factor in every research project conducted by CMC. Close cooperation with real-life companies guarantees the practical relevancy of research findings and at the same time helps to identify new and interesting research questions. Practical research work based on industrial needs provides new and interesting information also for the scientific community.
Current research topics at CMC are for example:
In addition to the above-mentioned development research, interviews, surveys, and literature research methods belong to our toolbox as well. Furthermore, in order to improve our research work, we are constantly developing our methodological knowledge and tools related to research work itself.
