This analysis explores service delivery environments through the lens of solid-state vertical integration and hollow-state networked supply chains. Utilizing data from the International City/County Management Association (ICMA), it tracks changes in service delivery modes from 1992 to 2002, highlighting shifts in nonprofit, private firm, and government participation. Key participants include clients, suppliers, and regulators. The dynamics of competition, collaboration, and change are examined along with governance recommendations focused on principal-agent relationships and the importance of long-term partnerships to achieve desired outcomes.

Network Governance Recommendations (Milward and Provan, 2000) • Clear principal-agent relationships • Principals should be producers as well as purchasers • Relationships should be long-term (e.g. long-term contracts) • Resources are often necessary, but insufficient to guarantee desired outcomes
Mission and Goals • Stakeholders • Dynamics (Threats and Opportunities)
Stakeholders • Players • Context Setters • Subjects • Crowd
Matching Governance Mechanisms with Stakeholders / Dynamics • Public vs. Private? • Clear Accountability Relationships? • Long Term Relationships? • Resources?
