Quality improvement activities in companies with foreign capital operating in Poland

Abstract

Foreign direct investment in Poland is feared in some political and economic circles, in others it is accepted too enthusiastically. The intention of this paper is not to show which side seems to be right but to attract the attention of Polish economic organisations to the fact that companies with foreign capital give much consideration to quality improvement aspects. Achievements of companies with foreign capital on the Polish market, especially in the field of acquiring competitive advantages, do not result from easy access to cheap credits or tax relief but, probably, first of all, from applied management methods including total quality management.
