Summary:碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 工業管理研究所在職專班 === 106 === Enterprise value comes from the execution of business processes to meet consumer demand. Due to internal and external environmental changes, business processes should not be static, but need timely and appropriate adjustments. Because of the advancement of cloud technology, the food industry has also started to use cloud database to manage product formulas and the derived product information to strengthen information transparency and food traceability in their supply chains. A major customer of case studied company also adopted the cloud database of products. This study focus on business process improvement to improve existing NPD process, to ensure consistency of internal and external product information. Limited by the existing information system, the system can only provide the function of information publishing, and the information can’t be converted to other documents effectively. Therefore, the process improvement can only correct the combination of related processes and the improvement of paperwork. For continuous improvement, to face of changes in the external environment and advances in information technology, companies should adopt a positive attitude to study and select appropriate information system tools that are suitable for the company itself to improve management efficiency. As the food industry is a relatively conservative industry with weak information capabilities, the industry is also not familiar with the new information system with low acceptance. Taking the example of Product Lifecycle Management promoted by Taiwan Food Industry Foundation in 2014, there are still no significant achievements. Herein suggested that the follow-up study can further explore the difficulties faced by the food industry in adopting the relevant systems, the introduction methodology and the analysis of the effects of the system, in order to improve the operation efficiency of implement food safety.
