Abstract—This paper focuses mainly on the inter-organizational type of network relations. Three models based on this aspect of network organizations are proposed, with the aspects of insider information concerns and the innovation behavior. It is suggested that, as a type of networking organization, outsourcing companies engage in innovation behavior from a different perspective, in that they are assumed to share the innovation with their contractors. On the other hand, as for all organizations, insider information builds up an important concern for outsourcing companies, as their business consists intense relations with third parties.
