Abstract
Abstract:Because of the growth of internationalisation of the
world's markets, in recent years Danish companies, as other
countries industries, have noticed, a sharper international
competitiveness and faster technological developments, integrated
into manufacturing.After the opening of the former east European
block and the saturation of present markets in the west, industry
in the west has taken an aggressive stance towards the new markets
presenting themselves. If we consider the establishment of
production in this country from the "ground up", or by buying in
to existing companies, (as a total ownership or joint venture).
This will give similar problems and possibilities with the
transfer, acceptance and application of production and economic
principles and practicalities. Based on the hypothesis that the
transfer of production and technology is effected by the various
factors and relationships, it is proposed that various theories ie
Porter and other relevant theories (PEST analyses) be applied in
the course of this investigation.It is proposed to describe
specific examples of companies that have or will transfer
production to Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) and make an
analysis of their findings, taking all relevant factors into
account. There will be an evaluation of the implementation of the
local technological resources, natural resources, workforce,
infrastructure and an analysis of the problem areas.One of the
further aims of the paper is to investigate, how this "country
analysis" can be integrated within the company's structure when
transferring production. The analysis will also try and prove the
interrelationship between the various factors, (material,
communication, organisation, culture, judicial and economic) to
form a homogenous entity, when considering the problems
involved.The paper will be written using a combination of
literature study and empirical analysis, within the organisation
of the chosen Danish companies.
