Service Outsourcing with Observable but Non-verifiable Outcome Performance

' '&' ' ' '&' ' ' '&' ' Service Outsourcing is unable to achieve cost savings without assurance of quality. The advanced technologies have allowed client firms to control outsourced service process using varied mechanisms including traditional outcome contracting and real-time behavior intervention. However, there is lack of studies that focus on the mechanism of what factors drives different control modes and the outcome performance. Based on our observations from field studies, we develop an analytical model to investigate how different quality verification cost structures drive different outcome performance through a sequential game between a client and a single vendor. We further discuss the impacts of real-time behavior control on improving the quality and the moderating effects of process codifiability.
