Case company side thought one reason is the fact that company have learned to develop new suppliers effectively. Also, both par- ties agreed that there is no significant difference in from what country delivered goods are, Finland was not mentioned in terms of better quality. And all this was same in component level. • Supplier side mentioned that in general communication has gone slightly more in unfriendly direction. And there are mild signs that the lack of clarity of com- munication is causing some quality issues. Case company side feels this issue can be seen even between case company departments. This, plus the increased re- quirement for documentation can cause misunderstandings which can be seen in quality of final products. And the line between supplier and case company quality can be blurred for the lack of clear communication. • Both sides are somewhat satisfied in quality resource situation.
