DISSERTATION TOPIC: Determinants of trust among supply chain partners: an Empirical study to

identify antecedents of trust

DISSERTATION ABSTRACT: Reacting to increased competition, companies are adopting inter-

organizational information systems (IOS) that share information across the supply chain partners. This sharing

requires trust. Trust, an implicit requirement of an effective inter -organizational information system, can be

explained by four major environmental factors: transaction cost economics, power of the organization in the

channel, institutionalization and the level of integration. We have developed a framework to understand the

environmental explanations to the level of trust between partners on the basis of the above four factors.
