Primary data was collected through key informants and focus groups interviews and secondary data through internal documents analysis. The researcher used non-probability quota sampling in order to select 24 participants for the 4 focus groups. Senior managers were also interviewed as key informants. The data gathered was analysed against literature reviewed. The study identified various challenges and key factors that were negatively impacting on the successful implementation of PMS.
