Abstract: Given that the literature indicates a lack of cooperation and outdated supply chains in construction, which are based mainly on short-term relationships and coordination through price, hybrid organisations between major contractors and subcontractors in construction in Croatia were investigated. The study aimed to define the determinants of collaborative hybrid organisations in the construction industry of the Republic of Croatia, and to investigate the motives and obstacles to their emergence as well as their differences with respect to control variables. Determinants, motives and obstacles are defined by detailed secondary research of theoretical works, while the differences between them are determined by the results of variance analysis. The research indicates that construction companies do not organise their upstream parts of supply chains only on the authority and position of power, but also use other management mechanisms, especially collaboration based on trust.
