3 Theoretical model for the analysis outsourcing of the Procurement

3.1.4 Basic model and main statements

After the basic model of the transaction cost theory a given transaction under the behavior acceptance mentioned can be organized and completed the more efficiently, the correspond themselves better the characteristics of the institutional arrangement the requirements resulting in from the dimensions of the transaction which can be completed. 55
Illustration 3 illustrates that the transaction cost theory underlying basic model.

From the connection between independent and dependent variables the main statement of the transaction cost theory results: The market represents the most favourable organization form due to its strong incentives and the effectiveness of the competition mechanism, which opportunistic behavior makes limited and economical autonomous adjustment processes possible, if transactions are not connected with special uncertainty or transaction specific investments. 57
With increasing transaction specific investments and increasing uncertainty first long-term, contingents of contracts with safeguards become favourable.
With very high extent of transaction specific investments the organization-internal achievement production is preferred.
"heavy and more expensively it per will to consider all circumstances of the exchange relationship in neoclassical contracts and the more largely the potential profits are the more attractive, which could obtain the transaction partners due to uncertainty and transaction specific investments from opportunistischem behavior, will it to provide the property or the achievement organization-internally.
In particular with large uncertainty and high transaction specific investments the organization-internal achievement production represents the relatively most favorable institutional arrangement." 58
The following illustration illustrates the cost process of the three institutional arrangements as a function of the extent of transaction specific investments under uncertainty.59
