| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中興大學 === 高階經理人碩士在職專班 === 97 === TP Company-TC Thermal Power Plant is a fossil (coal- fired) power plant. The installation capacity is the biggest one in Taiwan. Now it is also the biggest one of the world for single thermal power plant. TC thermal power plant was set up on July 18 1989, for almost 20 years till now. The building process of this thermal power plant, going through dredging sand to reclaim new land, building infrastructure, installing power engineering facilities, test running, to operating commercially formally, was a tremendously hard one. Due to its main contribution to the power supply of the whole country, TC power station plays a very important role in facilitating Taiwan’s economic growth between 1990 and 2000.
Since the implementation of the liberalization policy of the power industry, TP company is no more a monopoly. The percentage of power supply from the independent power producers is increasing more and more. Beside this, TP company itself may be privatized in the near future. Therefore, TP company needs to consider the pressure of competition and does the organization reengineering, which may be the best way to improve the operating performance. Before the organization reengineering, TC coal yard, the supplier of the coal, and TC power plant, the consumer of the coal, were two independent business units. There existed a barrier between these two units and therefore caused some management problems. However, after the merge of these two units, it creates a new phenomenon that makes the operation between these two units more efficient. This research is trying to study the process how TC coal yard is merged into TC thermal power plant, and trying to find out the successful factors that facilitate the successful merge of these two units.
Basically organization change in the public sector is not an easy process. Most of the time there exist some employees against the policy and the labor union would create some difficult scenarios for the management, etc. This research is trying to find out the successful factors from the complicated change process, including the force of facilitator and resistance, organizational culture, communication and the style of leadership.
The main purpose of this research is to find out the successful factors in the organizational change process by looking back into the TP-TC merge process. The obtained conclusions can be considered for the future possible organizational reengineering process. In addition to that, what an ideal organization should be if a new power plant is added in is also discussed in the final section.
