Abstract

This paper will try to analyze the impact of relational network characteristics on the absorption capacity and the external resources of contractors. The originality of our approach lies in the choice of the context in which our empirical analysis is applied, and relative to the Tunisian context. In addition, a range of theoretical approaches are integrated that have examined the links between absorption capacity and relational network.
