摘要：We develop a holistic model of governance choice in business process outsourcing (BPO) that represents a highly information-intensive form of outsourcing.

We theorize that firms with a posture-profile misalignment will see diminished returns from IT adoption because they will be less likely to possess (and be less effective at explo...
