description Customer relationship management (CRM) appears to be gaining significant importance as businesses continually seek for efficient ways to manage their relationship with customers.

A mixed method research was adopted in presenting and analysing data. The thematic analytical method was used to analyse the qualitative elements of the research while charts and the Pearson’s correlation coefficient analysis, was used to establish a strong relationship between CRM projects and gaining competitive advantage. The project ended with proposing an area for further research, around customer centricity and CRM.
