Abstract

This article presents the statistical results of a questionnaire survey sent to a sample of 2,500 automotive suppliers around the world. The purpose of this research is to identify factors that allow a supplier to find a favourable issue within a co-development partnership with a powerful client (i.e., a car manufacturer). Based on three theoretical propositions (transaction costs theory, resource based view and resource dependence theory), hypotheses are tested. Results show that an intense co-development partnership can be an opportunity for a supplier to balance its dependence position and to build a "force of proposition" vis-a-vis its client.
