Abstract

The provision of airport services results in a web of contractual relationships between the main contractor and other firms. The existence of multiple services offered in airports allows several contractual alternatives to be chosen. In particular, the main contractor may choose to carry out these under his own management or alternatively transfer them so they are under the control of another firm. The adventages of either alternatives depends on a host of factors.
This paper analyzes the impact in vertical integration of: a) difficulties in controlling labor and b) the need for specialized knowledge on specific business processes. The paper shows that, in general, the decision to integrate a process is inversely related to the aboce two factors.
