Business Services in Raising Abilities to Compete by Enterprises Using Them (Research Findings)

Summary/Abstract: In her article, the author undertook an attempt to answer the question whether business services contribute to raising the level of competitiveness of the companies using them. The so formulated objective was implemented on the grounds of findings of the research carried out by the method of direct interviews on the national sample of 500 economic entities. There were identified both importance of business services in increasing abilities to compete against the background of other tools serving this objective and ways of gaining owing to them competitive advantage. There was also characterised the role of various types of services in increasing competitiveness of the surveyed firms. National enterprises are characterised by a low level of awareness of the possibilities to make use of innovative business services to create competitiveness and they more readily make use of other ways of gaining competitive advantage. At the same time, respondents indicated many benefits gained from purchase of business services (e.g. growth of sales, better recognition of customers’ needs, improvement of company’s image, etc.) which may be an efficient tool of competing.
