The primary objective of this research is the analysis of internal environment of textile sector of Pakistan to identify inertial forces that compel organizations to remain on status quo rather than adopting the strategies for change.

Data was collected through self administered questionnaires. More than 500 questionnaires were distributed in different subsectors of textile. After analyzing the data, this research concluded that the numbers of variables existed in internal environment of textile sector are more in numbers and complex in nature than the variables existed in the context of developed countries.
