AB  - This study elaborates a conceptual model of partners’ assessment 
  of the performance of their co-partners in a collaborative business relationship. 
  The model’s usefulness has been illustrated through a study of 12 collaborative 
  arrangements between Australian and Malaysian firms. The results show differences 
  or gaps in partners’ expectations and perceived performance of their co-partners. 
  The perceptual gaps have been explained with reference to differences in motives 
  of collaboration, intensity of interaction, cultural differences, as well as 
  the active involvement of a catalyst in the development of the relationship. 
  The study also, draws attention to the policy and strategy implications of the 
  empirical evidence.
