Summary:碩士 === 大同大學 === 事業經營學系(所) === 99 === In Taiwan, high-tech electronic industry creates a powerful economic development for almost 30 years till now. The supply chain plays an important role that makes the electronic industry develop vigorously. It has established a complete supply chain system from the upstream of raw material purchasing to the downstream of product sales. Especially the raw material purchasing affair is always full of mysteries and lures people to explore the inside thoroughly. Out of this curiosity to purchasing, it is a motive that drives me to study the purchasing decision and want to have a deeper understanding how manufactures choose their raw material suppliers for specialty gas. Past studies are mainly from the perspectives on evaluation of raw material suppliers while this study is from the selected suppliers’ perspective to probe their customers. (the respondents of this questionnaire). When making the suppliers evaluation, the considered and valued principles assist suppliers to know their own pros and cons. This is future improvement on both selling behavior and reference standards of selling determination. The respondents include four types of high-tech upstream manufacturers such as Semiconductor, TFT-LCD, Photovoltaic and LED. Fuzzy Multi-criteria decision making (FMCDM) is proposed as a methodology to solve the supplier selection problem. Six evaluation criteria and four specialty gas suppliers are adopted to do the questionnaire survey and research analysis. The research results of integral and respective industry report that quality is primary in six criteria. Cost is secondary and service is tertiary. The empirical result of supplier selection reports that the fourth supplier (S4) is the best alternative of these four suppliers. According to this analysis result, it shows that a supplier only possesses the cost advantage could not be adopted and selected in these four high technology electronic industries. It still needs to tie in with other criteria such as quality, service, and so on to make supplier to possess much more competitiveness. The research analysis result of this study can be applied into practicing and offer the specialty gas supplier reference information while facing supplier selection among the four types of manufacturers. It makes specialty gas supplier to review its pros and cons and strengthen its own competitiveness and operation performance.
