“…In strategic alliances, relational risk is defined as the probability and consequences of not having satisfactory cooperation [34] or as the probability and consequence of experiencing opportunistic behavior by the partner [27,35]. The potential competitive relationship in supply chains can lead to relational risk behaviors by a partner.…”

This research explores how inter-organizational relationship interacts with factors affecting the development and implementation of information sharing. On the basis of the resource-based view and relational risk perspective, we developed a model which comprises three research hypotheses with three constructs, including relational benefits, relational risk, and information sharing. The constructs are measured by well-supported measures in the literature. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze survey data collected from 528 manufacturing firms that were among the top 1,000 Taiwanese manufacturing firms of 2011 listed by Business Weekly. The results of the empirical study suggest that relational benefits are critical in ensuring information sharing and mitigate relational risk in the process. The findings of the study provide useful insights into how supply chain members can reinforce their relational benefits and mitigate probable risks so as to improve their collaborative behaviors and in turn enhance information sharing for the supply chain as a whole.

“…However, TCE has been critisised for understating the role of social interactions and trust (Geyskens, Steenkamp, and Kumar 2006;Poppo and Zenger 2002). The TCE's assertion that trust is a redundant concept insofar as it does not promote calculative behavior of exchange parties (Williamson 1993) is dismissed by other scholars (Nooteboom, Berger, and Noorderhaven 1997;McNeil 1980). The notion of trust goes beyond coercive action and self-interest and results from relationship-specific norms and social bonds.…”

The logistics outsourcing literature emphasises relational governance mechanisms and has underplayed the role of formal contractual provisions. This paper empirically examines the multiple functions that contracts perform in service exchange governance. Codification, safeguarding, coordination, and adaptation functions are linked to contract specification schedules, payment mechanisms, (early) termination rights, performance review and communication provisions, service variations clauses, and renegotiation provisions. Contracts may also embody exchange-or partner-specific learning, albeit to a limited extent. Overall, the empirical findings lend support to the functional view of contracting. The functionality of contracts extends beyond safeguarding against opportunism and financial losses. In addition to offering economic and legal safeguards, contracts are used to coordinate and adapt service exchanges in the face of complexity and uncertainty.
