Japanese term or phrase: 履行補助者
Title of an article given as a reference to a legal precedent:
「高価品を滅失した運送人とその履行補助者の不法行為責任」

This reference is being given in regards to a case in which the following happened:

1. The consigner(A) and consignee(X) had a business relationship in which X shipped high-value raw materials to A, A processed them, and A shipped the processed goods back to X.
2. A used a transportation company(Y) to ship processed goods to X.
2. The goods were lost in transport.
3. X sued Y and A for damages.

I have 2 questions: 1) What is the proper term for 履行補助者? and 2) What does 履行補助者 refer to? Does it refer to any of these parties (A, X, or Y), or somebody else?

Thanks in advance.
