After doing a gap analysis, it has been observed that in our local context, we need to start our research from scratch. Hence, the objectives and question are set to know the present state of Asset Integrity Management in Medium Scale Manufacturing Industry of Karachi. Followed by the knowledge of globally established AIM frameworks through secondary research, the objectives include attaining quantitative ratings against relevant AIM aspects (also referred to as AIM tools in this study. This data should also be accompanying by insights of underlying obstacles and possible remedies. This need is fulfilled by semi-structured interviews as these factors are better answered by open ended questions.

There are multiple types of assets in possession of subject organizations such as Financial assets, Information Assets etc. but AIM focuses on Physical Assets primarily and views other assets in supporting role.
