There are studies that deduces that the case-study method has many beneficial properties that will help accomplishing this, but the case-study method does also come with some difficulties that should be had in mind when considering the implementing of the method.

In this paper have the current literature been analysed and there been found difficulties in the implementation of the case-study method. These difficulties have therefore been categorised in the purpose the facilitate the conclusions.
