I'd like to get feedback on the following proposition:

It's to the advantage of both a vendor and customer to create and
maintain a relationship of openness and trust.

When would this proposition be true, and when false? Assuming that it's
true in a particular situation, how would you make the case to a vendor's
or customer's management that they should try to create such relationships
with their customers/vendors? Do you have any references to successful or
unsuccessful attempts at this?
