A large part of the agricultural products that are sold in Sweden are imported because Sweden cannot meet the consumers agriculture products demand all year around. One problem that can occur and become problematic when trading across boarders is if there are errors in the delivered agricultural products. What must the Swedish buyer do, for example, make for it to be considered complained fault in the goods against the seller? Another problem in international trade is that the buyer may need to apply complaint rules they have not previously been in contact with since their domestic law is not always applicable to the contract. To avoid getting into this situation, the buyer should try to negotiate with the seller that the contracting parties shall use compensation claim rules that the buyer is familiar with, or which is even more advantageous than to the seller.

En rad förändringar i de kommunala verksamheterna kan hänföras till tankarna kring behovet av ett nytt tänkande och åtgärder för modernisering av offentlig verksamhet, en förändringsvåg som ofta beskrivs med samlingsbegreppet New Public Management (NPM). Offentlig styrning har blivit allt mer lik den privata och med NPM har offentliga verksamheter tagit mer sikte på marknadskrafterna. En konsekvens av detta tänkande är att medborgarnas synpunkter på verksamheten tilldelas en allt större vikt.Klagomålshantering har för många privata företag under en längre tid varit ett naturligt sätt att hantera kundernas synpunkter på verksamheten. I företag som är inne i en satsning på total kvalitet (TQM) betraktas klagomålshantering ofta som ett del- eller följdmoment till dessa ansträngningar. TQM, ett koncept med grunderna i den japanska tillverkningsindustrin, har som centrala ledord att kunden ska stå i centrum, arbeta med processer och basera beslut på fakta.Idag används TQM som ett uttryck för organisationens syn på kvalitet även av många offentliga organisationer.Hur klagomålshantering ska betraktas i den kommunala verksamheten är dock inte självklart.
