Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 管理學院碩士在職專班管理科學組 === 96 === IC foundry industry is developing point in our country.It predicts total output value in global IC total sales volume will reach 14% and total capacity in global manufacture capacity will reach 30% in the year of 2010.As to the cost of IC mask increasing with process change,the mask supply chain stands a key role in the industry.This research collect and summary the inferiority information,then use the “Comprehensive Make-or-Buy Decision Tree”,“Efficiency Tradeoff Model” and “Resource Sourcing Strategy” to confer the competition advantage of mask supply-chain Management and strategy-vertical integration or outsourcing of T and U company. Semiconductor industry is critical to Taiwan’s economy.Sophisticated and complete industry structure has been developed over the past 20 years.Now,semiconductor is one of the “flagship” industries in Taiwan,and represents a significant role to Taiwan’s economy.This case study showed the related mask supply chain management experience of both international IC foundry.Taiwan’s IC companies can benchmark with them,and also find out their advantageous resource strategy. This research reveals that mask supply strategy – vertical integration in T company adapted to take tapered integration strategy and strategy allicance with international IDM company to develop new mask technology.T company is the largest decicated semiconductor foundry in the world,providing the industry’s leading process technology and other leading-edge foundry services,such as mask making.So both of T company and his customers can take the competitive advantage.The mask supply strategy – outsourcing in U company adapted to take long term contract,strategy alliance and parallel sourcing policy.By establish and manage strategic partner relationship with mask supply chain members,and the strategic resource of successful mask supply chain management to develop competitive advantage and leverage of outsourcing.
