One important reason is the “network relationship” that connects each company and divides the job among firms. Most enterprises must develop new managerial skills to efficiently use their internal resources, Hence, outsourcing becomes the best choice that firms outsource non-core operations, and concentrate on core-competitiveness with vital resources, hereby reducing the overall running costs. Additionally, the quality, delivery, production procedures of outsourcing plants may impact the operation of the parent companies.
In the earlier studies, the focus was commonly highlighted in the strategic meaning of outsourcing, outsourcing the service, or outsourcing the information system. Because each industry has various types of outsourcing activities, this study attempts to discuss the key successful factors focusing on small and medium manufacturing enterprises, which have relatively less resources. The objectives of this study include: “what are the successful factors for manufacturing outsourcing on small and medium enterprises? What are the relationships between these factors? And what are the relative importance of these factors?”
To explore the key successful factors for manufacturing outsourcing on small and medium enterprises, this study examined the literatures and extracted some important factors. Then, this study applied the decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) to build the network relationship between factors and calculate the importance of the factors. Through a real case study, this study has derived some important conclusions. as follows: Critical factors are Managerial, Technological Abilities and Company Reputation.
