碩士 === 開南大學 === 企業與創業管理學系 === 96 === "Outsourcing" is one of the supply chain management strategies which can solve capacity shortage, manufacturing process bottleneck, and high cost. However, the quality of the companies that get subcontract are uneven, so the subcontract performances are not good, and the loss of business and goodwill. Reviewing the studies of subcontract estimation, we can know that most of them suppose that the indexes of checking items are all independent, but they omit that if the indexes are mutual dependent or feedback. This study uses ANP (Analytic Network Process) to decide checking items and priorities, and pick out the best subcontracting companies by VIKOR（VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje）. The case of this study uses panel-industry, which has good supply chain structure, to be an example, and focuses on polarizer, a key component of a panel company. Besides introducing polarizer structure, usage and manufacturing process, it also makes the checking items and priorities that are for subcontracting TAC films (三醋酸纖維素), polarizer processing. Then pick out the subcontracting-companies by using questionnaire analysis. What we know from the study result is: the picked out companies are different between ANP and other general methods. After specialists analyzed, the picked out company A also has the same specialty. From the viewpoint of polarizer supply chain, the upstream and downstream companies have good profits, and the middle companies have worse profits. So polarizer companies have no authority to decide the cost and price. Meanwhile, the material suppliers are very few, so the subcontractors usually focus on "Service (Customer Service and Shipping Rate)" and "Flexibility (Request and Capacity Provision)". This study provides the polarizer companies a good reference when then choose companies to do subcontract jobs. On the other side, it also gives the chosen companies a direction which they have to enhance when they want to get the subcontract.
