碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 工業工程與管理系所 === 104 === From inputing raw materials into manufacturing to distributing them to customers, the procedure involves raw material suppliers, manufacturers, distributers, retailers and customers. We call the whole network connected from upstream to downstream supply chain. With the development of economiy and the progress of both transportation and communication techniques, competition among national companies intensifies rapidly. Under the stress of global competition, how to manage the supply chain well has been an required course for each company. However, while the supply chain became more and more complex, many companies still didn’t well recognized this fact and still used the traditional way to manage the supply chain, leading to the imbalance of supply chain. To resolve this problem, Cecere proposed the supply chain index and orbit charts to help managers analyze the development of their companies. In this research, I modify the supply chain index defined by Cecere to make it evalue the performance of supply chain management more precisely and apply this modified version and orbit charts proposed by Cecere to semiconductor industry in Taiwan. I hope this research could provide managers in Taiwan a new way to analyze the performance of their companies, helping them to manage their companies better.
