摘要

本研究之目的在於根據不同使用程度的先進製造技術與電子商務，定義在供應鏈作業環境中形成各種連結策略，並驗證各種連結策略對供應鏈協調的影響結果。基於驗證結果，我們可以證明能夠增進供應鏈協調的最佳連結策略。樣本方面，本研究使用國際製造策略調查資料庫(International Manufacturing Strategy Survey IMSS)之資料進行驗證。我們由IMSS中選出497個樣本來進行分析，並根據不同使用程度的先進製造技術與電子商務去歸類出七種連結策略。驗證結果指出若先進製造技術與電子商務的使用程度高且完全擴散於供應鏈作業環境中其能有效影響夥伴廠商之間的協調，並增進供應鏈作業績效。此外，我們也發現電子商務在連結策略中扮演相當重要的角色。

The objective of this study is to empirically identify various alignments strategies through various adoption levels between advanced manufacturing technology (AMT) applications and e-commerce settings in supply chain context, and then test what alignment strategies hat will have significant influence on supply-chain coordination outcomes. Based on the test result, we can justify the optimal alignment strategy for the improvement of coordination activities. Using the data from the International Manufacturing Strategy Survey (IMSS) database, we analyzed 497 samples and classified seven types of alignment strategies by different adoption level of AMT and e-commerce. The test results indicated that alignment of broad adoption level of AMT and the equivalent broad adoption level of e-commerce can certainly influence the coordination efforts among partner firms and make improvement in supply chain efficiency. We also found that, e-commerce plays a more important key role in he alignment process.
