隨著供應鏈管理觀念的受到重視，企業的競爭也從單打獨鬥進入了集體作戰的時代。自1980 年代起，企業為了獲得競爭上的優勢，致力於尋求上下游間更緊密的合作，集中有限資源於提升自身的核心競爭力，同時經由資訊分享與協同合作，建立長期的夥伴關係。這樣的虛擬垂直整合方式，使得規模小的企業，也能夠透過合作所帶來的高能見度，而降低成本與提高反應速度，進而獲得競爭上的優勢。台灣的製造業一直是世界工廠上游相當重要的一環，在面對全球化的競爭時，如何夠透過夥伴關係的建立，以及具有競爭力的能力，獲得成功，是本研究所要探討的主要課題。本研究從交易成本理論出發，分析企業在建立夥伴關係時所投入的特用性資產，是否有助於上下游的資訊分享與供應鏈流程整合能力？接著再以資源基礎觀點，探討企業所擁有的供應鏈流程整合能力與資訊科技能力，對企業在策略面與作業面效益的影響。最後，對供應鏈中長期合作的夥伴而言，信任一直扮演著不可或缺的角色，本研究也將以信任作為調節變數，進一步了解信任如何能強化現有的夥伴關係。 ; As the concept of supply chain management is getting more attention, the arm-length relationships between organizations are extended to supply chain collaboration. Since 1980s, organizations attempted to build tight integration with partners so that they can focus on strengthen selves’ core competence. Information sharing and collaboration are components of inter-organizational relationships. Organizations manage information from their partners is another kind of vertical integration – virtual vertical integration. Virtual vertical integration is a way enables smaller organizations to gain competitive advantages without integrating upstream or downstream physically. It is because high visibility reduces transaction costs and response time. So that organizations can meet customers’ requirements effectively with lower cost. Taiwan’s manufacturing industry plays a critical role in global supply chain. How the partnerships and related capabilities can be helpful in the intense global competition is the major issue in this research. At first, transaction cost economics is used to analyze if the specific asset investment can improve information sharing between partners and the focal firm’s supply chain process integration capability. Resource-based view is then used to discuss the relationship between the focal firm’s capabilities and its performance. Supply chain process integration capability and information technology competence are taken into account in this research. Finally, trust is essential to long-term relationships in a supply chain. In this study, we view knowledge-based trust as a moderator that can reinforce an existed relationship. ; 研究期間 9708 ~ 9807
