I've heard it a lot in spoken language when a Boss says:
We object to get improved the quality of our products.
But, I think it should be:
We object to getting improved the quality our products.

As RichF mentions in his comment, neither is correct. There is a difference between "I (or someone) objects to something" (using "object" as a verb), and saying something is the object (short for objective) of something like a task or a job (which is what I think you are trying to say).
Again, here "object" can be used interchangeably with "objective", so if you are worried about causing confusion with the verb "to object" (or other meanings of "object), just use "objective". For example:

'We object to getting improved' is perfectly fine because 'object to + gerund' is a fixed structure, but it's never followed by an infinitive. E.g. • Tom objected to being in agreement with me last night because he is was radicalizing someone else. |
