Competitive Side of Cooperation Collaborative customer-supplier activities tend to build trust and subsequently facilitate supplier innovation transfer. However, there are competing activities in every customer-supplier relationship that lead to distrust that negatively impacts such transfers. For example, a company and its suppliers can strengthen trust in each other by working diligently and selflessly to deliver the highest quality end product. But when companies ask the same supplier to cut prices, both parties compete to steer the negotiations in their favor, putting a strain on their working relationships. It is this relationship pressure and its accompanying distrust that leads suppliers to limit the extent to which they can transfer innovation to customers. About the Authors, President.
