| Tiivistelmä: | The article investigates the importance of asset specificity for buyer-supplier exchange relationships in outsourcing decisions. Particular emphasis is placed on the need for buyers to understand pre- and post-contractual risks. The article is divided into three main sections. First, the behavioral context to outsourcing is discussed. Second, the concepts of asset Specificity, uncertainty, and information asymmetry are outlined as they relate to the scope for improvement in supplier power. Finally, a number of case studies are presented about the outsourcing of information technology. These cases serve to illustrate the general problem of post-contractual lock-in for unwary buyers. |
