Findings – If appropriately integrated and executed, collaboration provides a valuable business model and enhanced performance. The adoption of a standard – BS 11000 – provides the foundation against which organisations can develop the right strategy and encourage sustainable relationships that can deliver value‐based performance. The BS 11000 standard provides consistency in developing a collaborative approach. Originality/value – This paper explores the interdependence between operational practices and the behaviours that underpin performance and outcomes.
