Strategic Alliance–Construction
• informal rather than formal relationship,
• promotes improvements and relations rather
than liability and litigation.
• Regulates the contractual relationships between
parties of the SC rather than adding extra terms
to contracts.
• partnership is passive rather than active,
• associated with unfavourable outcomes (conflict
of interests, competition within alliance, and
win–loss relations)

would normally be in competition with one
another.
