Abstract

The paper focalizes its attention on the analysis of buyer-seller interactions in facility services enjoyed by public organizations. It aims at examining which are the purchasing models of facility services in public organizations and how emerging paradoxes can impact on the approaches to buyer-seller interactions in business services proposed by specialized literature. The research, based on 15 case studies of Italian Municipalities, shows that outsourcing of facility management services is associated more to transactions than to interactions and that transactions in facility services do not necessary generate efficiency.
