For a number of enterprise groups adopting the operation mode of collaboration, multi-factory and multi-site of business, how to implement effective Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) on the top of existing different legal systems, staff managements, social cultures and mental diversities has been the issue of corporate E-planning that needs to be overcome for this moment, because the success factors of general information system implementation are usually not applicable to the system development in such a heterogeneous environment. Therefore, this research, made primarily for the purpose of discussing the management in the cross-strait enterprises and by means of in-depth interview, practical observation and studies on documents and literatures, suggests a successful mode of information system implementation. Then, we analyze the ERP implementation of a representative company as a case study, modify the previously suggested mode and then make conclusion on the reference mode applicable to the cross-strait enterprise businesses in the course of implementing the ERP so as to assist the enterprises to successfully manage the corporate operation using the EPR in such a context. The valuable experience and conclusion acquired by this research can also serve the general international enterprises for reference while implementing their information systems.
