Abstract :
IT outsourcing is making relationship marketing more special for vendors as partnership has turned up to be a trend, which is becoming the core activity. Based on typical analysis of its risk and business character, the management elements and partnership quality are discussed. Then the index system is put forward and the model is founded for evaluation. The Hopfield neural network system (HNNS) technique is introduced with analytic hierarchy process (AHP) as a creative method for vendors to master the quality and make decisions. The model is characterized by being practically effective and functionally modular. On discussing the merits and deficiencies, the future study and its value for enterprise strategy are indicated.
