  1. 1. Organising Purchasing and Supply Management Across Company Boundaries

    Author : Ingrid Hessel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; boundaries; Purchasing; organising; relationships; supply management;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the organising of purchasing and supply management. Many researchers claim that organising is an important determinant of purchasing and supply management performance. However, previous research focuses more on other aspects than on organisational arrangements. Existing organising research adopts a mainly firm internal focus. READ MORE
