Strategic Information System (5/2010)

Abstract:

在企業面對經營環境嚴峻挑戰並進行 國內外多角化發展中,所面對的是與世界級企業展開全球化的競爭。台商企業陸續在大南亞等國進陸及東行產銷運作與佈局,以求發揮集團綜效,所要面對的挑戰還是持續降低成本、提高產品及服 務的品質、和快速反應客戶需求,現在的企業必須具 有的競爭力是品質、速度、創新和全球化。緣此,面對不斷變化的環境,企業需要檢視現行策略做全面的改變和調整,對於執行策略上凝聚共識、組織整合、齊一步調,來面對全球競爭。

With harshest challenges and diversified business developments, enterprises encountering today are global competitions against multi-nations companies. The globalization toward southeastern countries of Asia originated by Taiwanese companies demands regiment synergy and still challenged by continuously lowering down cost, raise the quality of products and services and quick responses to customers requirements. The competitions, enterprises now days should possess, are quality, speed, innovation and globalization. Hence, with environment changing continuously, enterprise need to change, adjust and adapt through inspecting current strategies and consolidate common consensus, integrate organizations and synchronize processes to confront global competitions in regard to strategy execution.

改變的方法中資訊策略是導引競爭優勢的一環,用資訊科技與功能發掘企業價值提供解決方案去創造出商 業價值,企業透過應用資訊系統,強化全球運籌與供應鍊 管 理來提高獲利能力、整合組織力量、提升營運效率、降低作業成本。資訊策略的投資是企業無形資產,最終會反應在財務績效,資訊策略必須結合公司經營策略做出最適方案及架 構建立,成為貫徹企業文化及企業目標的共同執行平台,主導企業日常管理機制,執行變革管 理中回凍的流程再造工程。

Among the methods of changing, information strategy is one of the way leading to competitive advantage that provides solutions to create business value by applying Information Technology to discover business values. By applying Information System to strengthen global logistic and supply chain management, enterprises will raise the capability to profit, integrate the power of organization, increase operation efficiency and lower operation costs. The investment of information strategy is an invisible asset for enterprise but eventually will result in performance in financial reports. Information Strategy should be united with operation strategy to layout the infrastructure and orchestrate the best-fit solutions that will carry through enterprise culture and vision, guide the mechanism of daily operations and implement business processes re-engineering in change management.

本研究探討資 訊系統導入過程中,闡述策略性資訊系統對經營策略的重要性,並且說明其間的方案決策過程和系統實際的運作模式。

發現企業資訊策略考量的重點,是透過引進資訊科技的機會完成無形的企業流程變革,進而讓企業發展藍圖更有遠景 與具體化,為企業的利害關係人創造更高的價值。

從個案研究後發現,全球化企業發展資訊策略的主要方向如下:

1.重整企業內部營運流程。2.提供管理者決策支援資訊。3.提昇對顧客的回應速度。

4.建立全球化運作之資訊平台。5.改造企業組織結構。

關鍵字:資訊策略、企業策略、資訊系統

The research depicts the cruciality of strategic information toward management strategy and its decisions of adapting alternative solutions and its practical business operation models through exploring the implementation of information system. We discover that information strategy heavily emphasizes on introducing the opportunity of Information Technology to invisibly conquer enterprise change management and furthermore realize business blueprint to create more values for stakeholders. Through cases study, we discover primary directions of strategic information for global enterprise are: 1. re-organize enterprise internal business processes. 2. provide decision support information for management. 3. expedite quick response to customers. 4. establish information platform for global operations. 5. overhaul enterprise organization structures.

Key words: information strategy, enterprise strategy, information system.

Using SCOR to Evaluate the Business Value of RFID Implementation in Packaging and Retailing Industry

(RFID導入的效益衡量 -- 使用供應鏈營運參考模式(SCOR), 2/1/2007)

Abstract:

With the help of SCOR, we plan to sketch out the Enterprise Logistic Infrastructure with our customers, apply RFID current best practices and evaluate the business value of RFID Implementation in Packaging and Retailing Industry.

Research Industry: paper, footwear, electronics and retailing.

Research Processes:

1. Find out where customers’ RFID adoption statuses are at now? Where can we break into?

2. The current business processes with customers in term of design, planning, source, make, delivery and return.

3. Introduce our four collaborative design processes: RFID Carton Design, RFID Carton Integrated Test, RFID Carton Quality Information and RFID System Integration. Find the way to tap these services into SCOR model with customers.

4. Follow SCOR Level 1, 2, 3 processes map with KPI, sketch out to-be processes through Business Processes Reengineering, locate business values in term of quantity and quality.

5. Do cost benefit analysis; find a niche point to draft first version of proposal for initiating pilot run with customers.

6. Present proposal to customers, get feedback, find-tune directions and go to 1.
