A study of the association between business competitiveness and endogenous factors was carried out: quality assurance and information systems in plastics recycling companies in the Colombian Caribbean region in 2016. The population studied was 158 companies that recycle waste from plastics of the Colombian Caribbean coast. The instrument for gathering information was the IDB's Competitiveness Map. The project was carried out in three (3) phases: In the first two phases, endogenous factors (quality assurance and information systems) were evaluated through a survey in each of the participating companies (micro and small enterprises). In the third, the endogenous independent variables were crossed with the dependent one (business competitiveness) by constructing the bar diagrams of the relationship analysis. The results showed statistical significance at a level of confidence of 95% between business competitiveness and endogenous factors quality assurance and information systems.
