Is a single-organization case study enough for a doctorate?

It can be, and many DBAs are exactly that. What makes it work is being clear about what the case is a case of, so the contribution is about a phenomenon rather than only about one firm. That framing is what answers the generalizability question.

This comes up on DBA Dissertation Support, where it is answered in the context of the work itself.
