However, a considerable number of outsourcing deals fail to produce expected outcomes, resulting in significant losses for both client and vendor. The research reported in this book examines the client-vendor relationship in outsourcing to gain a better understanding of the impact of the relationship on the outcome of the outsourcing project. The \"social capital\" framework used in this work provides an in-depth understanding of the management of outsourcing relationships. While past outsourcing research has held that the client-vendor relationship is important in outsourcing, this theoretical framework clarifies the nature and content of the relationship and its role in ensuring the success of an outsourcing arrangement. Through a close examination of several outsourcing relationships, the book offers outsourcing practitioners and others interested in the topic insights on what works and what does not.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47586890219671,"sku":"9783639018608","price":7311.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783639018608.webp?v=1774965604","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/exploring-information-systems-outsourcing-the-role-of-social-capital-9783639018608","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
