Breaking the Personal Tie: On the formalization of the procurement of management consulting services

• As illustrated by the previous chapter studying the purchase of management consultants in the public sector, where purchasing is subject to the public procurement act, there is an inherent tension between organizational efforts to ensure an efficient and effective purchasing process and the preferred practices of the managers and consultants wanting to come together to strike a deal.
