Nevertheless, the academic research on phenomena such as offshoring, international purchasing and the sourcing of certain specific categories is still scarce. Lydia Bals provides terminological clarity regarding the field of offshoring. She identifies different types of offshoring, concluding that the buy option of offshore outsourcing versus hybrid or make options is directly related to purchasing. Her in-depth analysis specifically focuses on the sourcing of marketing services. In this context, the investigations of purchasing/marketing integration provide a conceptual model of barriers to purchasing involvement in sourcing of services. Moreover, the author seeks to shed light on issues of providing incentives for advertising agencies from an agency theory perspective. The case study illustrates that the measures taken against an initially problematic situation in the purchase of advertising agency services correspond with the theoretically identified solution mechanisms. 410 0$aEinkauf, Logistik und Supply Chain Management 606 $aContracting out 606 $aOffshore outsourcing 606 $aInternational business enterprises$xManagement 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aContracting out. 615 0$aOffshore outsourcing. 615 0$aInternational business enterprises$xManagement. 676 $a658.4058 700 $aBals$b Lydia$0877781 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453399603321 996 $aSourcing of services$91959878 997 $aUNINA
