Abstract

Using 122 dyadic data collected from customers and suppliers of industrial air conditioning systems, the authors examined the role of relationship quality and supplier’s competence in a business network context. The findings suggest that business network connection is an antecedent to relationship commitment and relationship outcomes (i.e., repurchase intention and value creation). The present study also indicates that sales planning competence is a mediator between relationship quality and relationship outcomes.
