What is a Partnership?

What is a Partnership?

• Traditional Definition:– A relationship between individuals or groups that is characterized by

mutual cooperation and responsibility, for the achievement of a specified goal

(How) does it differ from these other relationships?- A limited partnership company- A supplier- A service provider- A colleague in a different department or institution

What is an ideal partner for Ancillary Services?

• Focus on value-added partnership• a platform for independent organizations (partners) based on a common

purpose, a long term relationship and a common vision (an agreed upon strategy and an organization form) that lets each partner benefit and/or profit based on their individual competencies, and generate more added value (Value Added) than the partners could ever generate individually.

• a collaboration which results in a surplus of value for the organizations involved.

Why do we look for/need value-added partners?

• Reconstruct and/or reorganize a service• Change up how we offer the service or product• To see what the options or possibilities are to create

a new , unique or better concept?• To be able to do/offer something we otherwise

couldn’t do

Strategic: partnership advantages

• Not only re-engineering the process

• Assigning of resources• As an individual

organization

but also regeneration of strategies

to leverage of resources to as a coalition of

organizations

Value-Added Partnership

• General Example:– Producers of bread and producers of sandwich filling– Buying one creates need for the other– Producers of bread could focus value- add only on bread.

Same for sandwich filling– Partnership with each other could supply those needs +

surplus of worth ie catering or a restaurant or?

Examples of non value-added partnerships in Ancillary Services

• Telecommunication site leases• Facility rental agreements• Service contracts, such as parking

management, custodial, vending• On-line product affiliate programs
