While the client-vendor relationship has been mainly examined from the service receiver's perspective in IS outsourcing literature, the vendor's factors have seldom been explored. To address this issue, our study adopts interaction process theory and develops the model focusing on the competence of the vendor as a key antecedent of the client-vendor relationship intensity and outsourcing success. Results from empirical data gathered from Korean firms indicate that the vendor competence factors identified in this paper positively impacts the client-vendor relationship and outsourcing success. The findings have significant implications for IS outsourcing practices and further research.

This study develops a contingency fit between client IT capability and vendor competence in IS outsourcing relationship by integrating both the contingency theory in organization and the relationship theory in IS outsourcing. By adopting a fit as a moderation, the relationship intensity of IS outsourcing is hypothesized to be influenced by the fit between client IT capability and vendor competence, thereby leading to the success of outsourcing. The testing data was obtained from 20 IS outsourcing projects from both clients and vendors in Korea. The research model proposed in this study was then tested using the structural equation model (SEM). As expected, the result shows that when there is a fit between client IT capability and vendor competence, higher level of relationship intensity and outsourcing success exhibits. The findings have significant impactions for further research and practice.
