Full textBid/no-bid decisions in international construction markets are considered difficult, being characterized by its uncertainties and complexities, especially in today’s highly competitive market. Additionally, it is claimed by some authors that many companies still utilize tools and methods that are fragmented, incomplete and rudimentary based on “personal intuition” or “previous-experience-based” (Han and Diekmann 2001a; Han and Diekmann 2001b). On the other hand, other authors emphasize that most of the bid/no-bid models found in the literature ‘remained in academic circles and did not find their way into the practical world’ (Wanous et al, 2000, pp.457). Thus, the focus of this work is to make a contribution towards the reduction of the actual gap between theoretical and practical bidding decision models and contribute to the development of a consistent model that could satisfactorily support the bid/no-bid decision for international construction projects. This way, an investigation of the practical bid/no-bid decision models is performed combined with an evaluation of the degree of applicability of theoretical models in practice. The research is based on a multiple case study analysis. The results suggest that although bidding decisions are still based on subjective judgments, the process applied by companies is formal and highly structured. It is a defined routine with a clear sequence of steps to be followed in which relevant information is analyzed by experienced staff. Additionally, it is designed to be followed by all bids in the companies, including formal presentations for the top management of the companies, who are actively involved in the decision. However, the results also reinforce that although some features of theoretical models can be observed in practice, none of them is being fully employed. Thus, it is possible to affirm that, although the current theoretical models bring some important highlights to bidding situations, they are still not fully suitable for the international construction environment. An important contribution can be done not only to the academic field but also to managerial one if future research focuses on the improvement of the practical models.

Full textO caráter dinâmico dos aspectos econômicos do mundo atual, somado à grande incerteza inerente às decisões futuras, faz com que o conceito de análise de investimentos esteja sofrendo consideráveis alterações. Cada vez mais é observada uma necessidade de inclusão de uma margem de flexibilidade gerencial nos critérios de avaliação de projetos. Justamente por isto, vários autores vêm criticando o tradicional método de análise, baseado no fluxo de caixa descontado (FCD). Ao mesmo tempo, vêm sendo destacadas as vantagens da utilização da teoria das Opções Reais, caracterizada justamente por incluir este tão importante elemento de flexibilidade gerencial, capaz de garantir uma adaptabilidade estratégica aos tomadores de decisão. Dentre os projetos que mais precisam deste novo critério de avaliação estão aqueles relacionados a investimentos na área de petróleo. Isto porque esta é uma área caracterizada por elevada incerteza e que demanda vultosas quantias de investimento, requerendo assim, uma análise mais cuidadosa. Dentro do tema Opções Reais em petróleo, Dias (2005) desenvolveu dois modelos de análise: o Business e o Rigid Cash Flow. A presente dissertação busca fazer uma comparação entre estes dois modelos e tirar conclusões a respeito da melhor decisão de investimento, tanto no que diz respeito ao melhor momento de se investir - a questão do timing - quanto ao que diz respeito à valoração do projeto em si. Para a realização desta análise comparativa, são desenvolvidos gráficos em Excel, com resultados gerados por um programa desenvolvido em VBA (Visual Basic for Aplications).
Nowadays, world´s economic issues are characterized by dynamism and strong uncertainties, especially in questions related to future decisions. As a consequence of this, the theory of investment analysis has been changing a lot. More and more it has been observed a growing necessity to include the concept of managerial flexibility in project valuation. Plenty of authors criticize the currently used investment analysis method, mainly represented by the discounted cash flow. Besides, several researches have been carried out to analyze the advantages of using the Real Options theory, which is characterized exactly by including this managerial flexibility, so important to the investment and project studies. Managerial flexibility is important exactly because it is capable to guarantee strategic adaptability to the decision makers. Among the projects that need most this new valuation criterion, it is important to mention those related to petroleum investments, due to its complexity and to the fact that petroleum projects demand voluminous sums of investment, requiring therefore, a more detailed and careful analysis. Dias (2005), in his studies about Real Option theory in petroleum area, has developed two analysis models: Business and Rigid Cash Flow. The main proposal of this dissertation is to compare these two models and to draw some conclusions about the best investment decision, regarding not only the best moment to invest - timing decisions - but also the valuation projects issues. To make this comparative analysis, some graphs have been developed in Excel. The data used to construct such graphs were generated by a VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) program, also developed by Dias (2005).

Full textTakeover is a business activity which really started in the beginning of the eighties and which still takes a strong part in the business and financial area all over the world. According to our studies as the desire for further acknowledgements and the desire of building a career around financial activities, this study has been naturally conducted in the banking area.
Regarding the steady use of acquisition like a powerful process with some positive and negative sides, we decided to implement a comparison of different mergers and acquisitions in the banking industry in the United States and Europe. This comparison has been supported and based on the third main topic of our study: performance.
These large and complex subjects combined together lead to the following hypotheses:
Hypothesis 1: Performance is not improved after takeover in the banking industry.
Hypothesis 2: The level of post takeover performance is the same in the U.S. as in the European bank acquisitions.
Based on the historical data and knowledge, the United States was the pioneer in the development of such gathers in the banking sector. Considering the United States as a reference, a first purpose was to compare them with the bank mergers and acquisitions in Europe. Stating on some possible differences as increasing our own knowledge have been some others purposes which have supported our work.
A first large part of our work was focused, through a large literature review, on the enhancement of our knowledge as the statements of the basis and support for the analysis.
To illustrate and to try to answer our research question, we have conducted our study based on a sample of 20 acquisitions which were achieved in the banking industry between March 1998 and May 2004. 10 of these acquisitions had been achieved in the United States as the 10 remaining acquisitions had been executed in Europe.
The analysis has been achieved by collecting data in Thomson Datastream Advance.
Based on a quantitative method, we applied two financial models: The Market Model (MM) and the Market-Adjusted Returns Model (MAR) supported by the Cumulative Abnormal Returns Method (CARs).
The post-takeover study has been delimited on a period of 42 months after the public announcement.
The study and the comparison between the United States and Europe have shown some differences between the two areas. Nevertheless it seems that negative abnormal returns are usually the case after such takeovers on the whole period studied. Some positive abnormal returns have been recorded at different points in the time into the studying period.
According to the models we applied, the US banks results seem to be better than the ones of European banks: the differences range from 5,58 to 16,65 points under the MM, and from 1,66 to 18,08 points under the MAR model.

Full textTo find an appropriate balance between centralization and localization is a key factor for a successful international company. From a company perspective, this thesis tries to figure out if the different aspects such as organizational culture, national culture and industry sector determine the standardization or adaptation of companies' websites and which website features are affected. The internationalization typology of Barlett and Ghoshal has been used to classify 12 companies from 3 industry sector according to their international strategy. Then their websites in United States, Germany and Taiwan will be analysed to compare if the internationalization types among their websites correspond to the expected. The results show that the three aspects impact the appearence of their websites.

Full textWithin the specific context of India, a comparison of motivation level between traditional and virtual project teams in Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) firms to retain employees is so far not a widely-observed phenomenon. Therefore, in order to investigate this comparison between the traditional and virtual project teams and its consequences, we have attempted to explore with the help of motivation level how human resource in BPO firms in India can be retained. An attempt has been made to compare the level of motivation between the Traditional (collocated) project team members and the Virtual project team members of the BPO firms in this environment. We have attempted to explain this phenomenon by way of three management variables, namely: Nature of Work, Rewards, and Communication, which may be considered as decisive. In order to achieve this, on the basis of a large literature review, a qualitative and quantitative study has been carried out through in-depth interviews with nine carefully selected BPO firms in India

Full textObjectives: Continuing pharmacy education (CPE) programs are required for pharmacists to maintain licensure and necessary to maintain current clinical knowledge. This study attempts to compare the quality of CPE programs from industry sponsored versus non-industry sponsored sources. Methods: Three CE programs were analyzed by comparison to an established guideline source. Diabetes mellitus was selected as the disease state because there was a recently published and widely accepted guideline document available. Two CPE programs were industry sponsored and one was independent of industry. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) guideline document on the management of type 2 diabetes was used to develop a scoring tool. Each CPE program was evaluated for consistency with the ADA guideline, using the scoring tool. The results were analyzed using the Fisher’s exact test. Also, the number of times that a drug name was mentioned in each program was recorded. Results: There was some discordance between the content of the three CPE programs and the ADA guidelines, but no discernible pattern was seen. There was a statistically significant difference between the non-industry sponsored programs. There were some inconsistencies among the three programs relative to “mentions” of drug names, but again no consistent pattern. Conclusions: This work does not provide convincing evidence of bias among industry-sponsored CPE programs. In retrospect, the choice of the specific CPE programs may have been inappropriate considering the nature of the guideline document and the evaluation tool that was developed from it.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: This Study Project is entitled: "An Investigation Into The Industry Attractiveness Of The. Management Consulting Industry In South Africa". The management consulting industry is by no means a new or fledgling industry, with its roots dating back to the early 1900's where it had a strong engineering orientation. The global consulting industry experienced a massive growth phase during the late 1980's and during the 1990's, and was not only enormously lucrative, but also a highly attractive industry. It now appears that the management consulting industry has been negatively affected by global economic factors (such as recession, globalisation, technology, terrorism) over the last few years, particularly in 2000 to 2002, where is has now reached a stage of maturity and is in a period of major consolidation. This global industry trend has been increasingly evident in South Africa (SA), and judging from the way consulting firms have been restructuring, consolidating and revising their recruitment policies (on a global scale) in the last few years, it appears that the industry could be becoming less attractive than it has been in the past. An important objective of this Study Project was to investigate the key issues and problems facing the consulting industry, largely from the perspective of the clients who ultimately make the decision to bring in a consultant. By conducting a strategic assessment of the management consulting industry in South Africa, the ultimate objective was to determine the fundamental attractiveness of the consulting industry at present. To achieve the above objectives, it was determined that qualitative, investigative research would be conducted, rather than a quantitative, numerative approach to data gathering. The research methodology used in this Study Project was a combination of secondary and primary - research. Firstly, secondary research, in the form of an in-depth, global literature review was conducted on the topic. Having established the key themes and issues facing the consulting industry, primary research could then be conducted. This was achieved by conducting indepth, personal interviews with key decision makers across client industries in South Africa, to determine the current industry attractiveness of the management consulting industry. The current down phase in both global and South African general economic business cycles, has dictated that cost and value-added issues are top of mind in organisations where clients are no longer content to pay high fees, and not see meaningful results. And so, whilst management consulting plays a definite role in a client organisation, a large gap has been created for the small to medium specialist firms to grow, particularly in the local marketplace. Clients feel that the small specialist firms are able to offer better value for money, more personalised service, lower fees (as a result of lower overheads) and build a more sustainable long-term relationship with them. Clients are also relying less on consultants to solve all their problems, and are realising the excellence of their own internal resources. Overall, the management consulting industry, both globally and particularly in South Africa, is only averagely attractive at this present moment. It has definite attractions and uses to clients, whilst simultaneously drawing serious concerns from the client firms who require their services. Being in a mature phase of its life cycle, and given the current down phase in the global economic cycle, the consulting industry is poised to either go into decline or experience a resurgence of growth. Thus, it is how the consulting firms respond to the new economic challenges placed upon them and how they respond to the criticisms which have been brought to light, that will dictate which firms survive and which will not. Finally, it is recommended that the relative attractiveness of the management consulting industry (as conducted in this Study Project) be re-evaluated on a fairly regular basis in order to understand the next stage in the life cycle of the industry, to provide clients and industry players with insight into the factors influencing the consulting industry. And to provide an independent resource to the consulting industry, to guide them in shaping their future strategies for survival.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie Studieprojek is getiteld: "'n Ondersoek Na Die Aantreklikheid Van Die Bestuurskonsultasie-industrie In Suid-Afrika". Die bestuurskonsultasie-industrie is geensins 'n jong, nuwe industrie nie. Sy wortels dateer terug na die vroeë 1900's waar dit 'n sterk ingenieurs-oriëntasie gehad het. Die internasionale konsultasie-industrie het in die laat 1980's en gedurende die 1990's 'n enorme groeifase beleef en was nie net geweldig winsgewend nie, maar ook uiters aantreklik. Dit blyk egter nou dat die bestuurskonsultasie-industrie oor die laaste paar jaar negatief beïnvloed word deur internasionale ekonomiese faktore (soos resessie, globalisering, tegnologie, terrorisme). Dit is veral die geval in die tydperk 2000- 2002, waar dit nou 'n fase van volwassenheid bereik het en 'n tyd van konsolidasie beleef. Hierdie internasionale industrie tendens word al meer in Suid-Afrika gemerk. Dit blyk, veral uit die wyse waarop konsultasie firmas die afgelope paar jaar herstruktureer, konsolideer en hul aanstellingsbeleid (op 'n internasionale skaal) in heroorweging neem, dat die industrie minder aantreklik is as in die verlede. 'n Belangrike doelwit van hierdie Studieprojek was om die sleutelfaktore en probleme wat die konsultasie-industrie in die gesig staar, te ondersoek - grootliks vanuit die perspektief van die klant wat uiteindelik die besluit neem om 'n konsultant te raadpleeg. Deur 'n strategiese ondersoek na die bestuurskonsultasie-industrie in Suid-Afrika te doen, was die hoofdoelwit om die huidige fundamentele aantreklikheid van die konsultasie-industrie te ondersoek. Om bogenoemde doelwitte te bereik, is kwalitatiewe, ondersoekende navorsing gedoen in plaas van 'n kwantitatiewe, numeriese benadering van dataversameling. Die navorsingsmetodologie wat in hierdie Studieprojek gevolg is, is 'n kombinasie van sekondêre en primêre navorsing. Eerstens is sekondêre navorsing in die vorm van 'n indiepte, internasionale literatuurstudie oor die onderwerp gedoen. Na bepaling van die sleuteltemas wat die industrie in die gesig staar kon primêre navorsing aangepak word. Dit is gedoen deur indiepte, persoonlike onderhoude met sleutelbesluitnemers in die Suid-Afrikaanse klantesektor om sodoende die huidige aantreklikheid van die bestuurskonsultasie-industrie te bepaal. Die huidige afwaartse neiging in beide die internasionale en Suid-Afrikaanse algemene ekonomie en sakesektor, het dikteer dat koste en waardetoevoeging prioriteit het in organisasies waar klante nie meer geneë is om hoë fooie te betaal terwyl hulle nie betekenisvolle resultate sien nie. En dus, terwyl bestuurskonsultasie 'n besliste rol speel in klante-organisasies, is daar 'n groot gaping vir klein tot medium spesialiste om te groei, veral in die plaaslike mark. Klante voel dat die klein spesialis-firmas beter waarde vir geld bied, 'n meer persoonlike diens lewer, laer fooie (weens laer lopende koste) het en 'n langtermyn-verhouding met hulle bou. Klante steun ook al minder op konsultante om al hul probleme op te los en besef die uitnemendheid van hulle eie interne bronne. In die algemeen kan gesê word dat die aantreklikheid van die bestuurskonsultasie-industrie, beide internasionaal en veral Suid-Afrika, net gemiddeld is. Dit het besliste waarde en gebruik vir klante, terwyl dit gelyktydig bekommernis bring vir die firmas wat die dienste benodig. Die konsultasie-industrie, gegewe die volwasse fase van sy lewensiklus en die huidige afwaartse fase van die internasionale ekonomiese siklus, kan óf 'n afname beleef óf 'n oplewing wat kan lei tot groei. Dus, dit is hoe konsultasie-firmas reageer op die nuwe ekonomiese uitdagings wat aan hulle gestel word en hoe hulle reageer op die kritiek wat tans uitgewys word, wat sal bepaal watter firmas sal oorleef en watter nie. Dit word aanbeveel dat die relatiewe aantreklikheid van die bestuurskonsultasie-industrie (soos in hierdie Studieprojek gemeet) gereeld herevalueer word om die volgende fase in die lewensiklus van die industrie te verstaan. Sodoende sal klante en rolspelers in die industrie se aandag gevestig kan word op faktore wat die konsultasie-industrie beïnvloed. Dit sal ook 'n onafhanklike bron bied om die industrie te lei in die bepaling van 'n toekomsstrategie om oorlewing te verseker.

Full textThe business environment has become more risky over the past decades. How do the companies prepare for the competitive environment and how are they working with risk identification and risk management, early warning system and blindspots in order to strengthen their positions on the market? In order to sufficiently investigate the subject, the following two problems function as the base of the thesis. What change drivers affect the industry, and what are the risks that these changes generate for the companies on a strategic, operative and financial level? How does the Swedish broadcasting industry work with business intelligence in order to strengthen their position towards their competitors as well as preparing for future changes in the environment in which they operate? The purpose of the thesis is to examine and identify the main factors affecting the broadcasting industry in Sweden, using TV3, TV4 and Kanal5 as reference points and how Business Intelligence is conducted and applied within these companies in order to strengthen their position. The method approach used is of an explorative kind since no previous studies were found on the subject. The information gathered is mainly of a qualitative kind using some quantitative data. The thesis has been conducted as case studies of the three companies. Several interviews with relevant personal within the organizations studied were conducted. In our final discussion we have concluded that the companies are efficiently identifying their risks and management action is taken rapidly when necessary. In contrast, the intelligence monitoring within the studied companies is rather weak according to Gilad’s theories of the Early Warning Triangle. The industry change drivers strongly affect the development of the industry and must be carefully observed in order to react proactively to the many risks the companies are exposed to.

The Internet is a communications network that connects computers around the world. It has been around since 1960's. The Internet Phenomena - the recent upsurge in business use of the Internet can be attributed to the World Wide Web or the web. The web uses universally accepted communication protocol and presentation language (i.e. Internet Protocol and Hyper Text Markup Language) that makes it a standard interface - a ubiquitous interface. Businesses are leveraging the Internet to obtain a variety of business benefits. Based on an extensive literature review, this thesis presents a catalogue of 35 distinct business benefits. To obtain these benefits, businesses are undertaking a variety of projects and initiatives. The projects and initiatives, termed as E-business apply the Internet technologies for improving existing business processes, removing barriers within a business, and or among businesses in the supply chain. This thesis organized E-business projects into eight different areas. This thesis explores the Internet Phenomena - it attempts to understand the potential Impacts of the Internet on the supply chain, and proposes some guidelines for management teams interested in choosing E-business projects. By mapping E-business benefits along a typical supply chain, this thesis observes that the Internet is creating structural and operational impacts in the supply chain. The structural impacts appear to result from (a) the growth of a direct channel (b) the presence of new economic agents and (c) new marketplaces. The operational impacts appear to be that (a) the scope of supply chain operations change (b) the scale of supply chain operations are enhanced and (c) the speed of supply chain operations increase. The thesis suggests ten perspectives that may help a management team choose E-business projects. It examines one perspective in detail - the Industry perspective. The industry perspective suggests that differences in industry structures should lead to differences in business needs and requirements, and therefore lead to different e-business opportunities. A hypothesis, based on an industry classification system (proposed by Charles Fine of MIT), was developed. The Internet is a communications network that connects computers around the world.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: South Africa has been integrated into the global economy since the abolishment of the apartheid era in 1994 through a rapid programme of trade liberalisation. Its footwear industry illustrates the effects of these policies on companies and their real output, employment and wage payments, which are among the most important channels through which the market forces (supply and demand) affect poverty in a developing economy. Exporting has been driven by trade liberalisation, but the restructuring of companies to keep up with technology and the effect of cheaper imports from the East have been the main reasons for a substantial fall in total employment, while manufacturing has stagnated. Labour productivity has increased with better production methods and some innovation, which had a positive effect on wage payments to workers in this labour-intensive industry. South Africa has not been isolated from the world recession that began in 2008, therefore manufacturing – the second biggest sector in SA – has been in free-fall this year, sliding by double digits on a year-on-year basis. The footwear industry’s attractiveness is therefore seen as moderate, but with potential once the economy starts growing again. A factor that needs to be taken into account is the exchange rate of the South African rand, which has gained more than 20 per cent to the dollar so far this year. This has been the main reason why the fall in exports has been larger than that of imports. These lower imports also highlighted weak consumer demand.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Vanaf 1994, met die beëindiging van die apartheidsera, het Suid-Afrika se toetrede tot die wêreldekonomie voortgesnel danksy handelsintegrasie. Die Suid-Afrikaanse skoenbedryf is ’n tipiese voorbeeld hiervan, en maatskappye in die bedryf getuig daarvan deur werklike uitsette, werkverskaffing en loonbetalings wat die belangrikste vorme is om markewewigte (vraag en aanbod) in a onderontwikkelde ekonomie te bevredig. Uitvoere is die gevolg van hierdie handelsintegrasie, maar vele maatskappye het agterweë gebly om tegnologies vooruit te gaan. Tesame met goedkoper invoere uit die Ooste, was dit die vernaamste rede vir werkloosheid in die skoenbedryf terwyl produksie gestagneer het. In sekere gevalle het werkers se produktiwiteit verhoog as gevolg van beter produksiemetodes en innovasie, wat ’n positiewe effek op die salarisse en lone van werkers in die bedryf gehad het. Die wêreldresessie in 2008 het Suid-Afrika ook negatief beïnvloed, veral die tweede grootste sektor, naamlik vervaardiging, wat tot dubbelsyfers gedaal het op ’n jaar-op-jaar basis. Die skoenbedryf word gesien as ’n gematigde bedryf om in besigheid te doen, maar met heelwat potensiaal wanneer die Suid-Afrikaanse ekonomie weer begin groei. ’n Belangrike faktor is die wisselkoers van die Suid-Afrikaanse rand teenoor die Amerikaanse dollar, wat met meer as 20 persent toegeneem het. Dit is die hoofrede vir ’n groter daling in uitvoere as invoere. Laer invoere beklemtoon ook die swak verbruikersvraag.

Textbook industry is a new and special industry. It operates in a closed market and the consumers are almost just students in the period of their education. It is different from ordinary publication industry and has to deliver more aspects such as political, social, cultural, economic, military, geographical and scientific. As the textbook industry has its special mission so it cannot be valued in views of ordinary commodities. Due to consumers’ demand, the service frequency and locations of textbook industry are dramatically increasing and the market is getting more and more competitive. What’s more, the product in this industry has similar product characteristics and easy to be substituted so that value conflict happens all the time, profit margin is getting lower and lower so as to result in business crisis. In order to keep competitive, it is necessary to build a product brand or a channel brand value-network in this special industry network. This research took Kang Hsuan Educational Publishing Group as its research object. The researcher studied textbook industry environment, current business status, business process and its value network. Besides above, the researcher also studied the business difficulties that textbook industry is facing and tries to find the difference in value chain, confirm the comparative positioning then compare product brand and channel brand network strategies. In the conclusion, the researcher offered some suggestions so that the business managers in textbook industry can take them as reference in developing their appropriate product brand or channel brand network strategy and business process.

Due to high volatility of the prices and demand/supply conditions of the electronic component industry, inventory losses could be a serious issue in the PC industry. However, Dell adopts the direct model, selling products to end users without any intermediate, to reduce inventory risks and gain a higher gross margin. Relying on its unique MIS to implement the direct model, Dell successfully establishes incredible flexibility, cost advantage and capability of rent appropriation. While everyone thinks that Dell’s business model is the only way to reduce inventory risks, Acer’s recent rising performance denies the argument. On the one hand Acer cooperates with OEM, ODM and EMS partners to accelerate turnover rate. On the other hand Acer uses of distributors and agents to fast penetrate local markets without any direct sales. Actually Acer owns nothing but the brand, and, therefore, Acer can reduce fixed cost to compete with Dell. The two business models are proven by the markets that both can work, but face some challenges. Even though Dell still gets ahead in American and European PC markets, the growth rate in the markets is not high enough to support Dell’s stock price. To make matters worse, Dell doesn’t have obvious advantages in server, NB and IT services areas. Acer’s growth rate is very high; nevertheless, Acer’s business model can be imitated by other competitors easily. To sum up, low inventory can’t promise to succeed anymore in the PC industry. After Acer solved their inventory problems, the next issue is to how expand the business model to a great extent. In conclusion, we show that different business models can achieve the same level of success in the PC industry.

In recent years, the issue of corporate social responsibility (CSR) has gradually been concerned by public. When enterprises pursue their profit, whether they could give their profit to the society as feedback in the same time. There is a relationship between corporate governance and corporate social responsibility, if we construct a sound corporate governance mechanism that can help enterprises to implement social responsibility. When the enterprise takes corporate social responsibility, not only can create a better image, but also to enhance the corporate’s business performance. However, the financial industry plays an important role of a country's economy, and it is related to economic development and social stability. The companies that selected by the commonwealth magazine as excellence in Corporate Social Responsibility Award, the financial services relevant firms are selected year by year. Thus it can be seen, the financial industry pays more attention to CSR. Therefore, the implementation of CSR for the corporate’s performance is worthy in-depth to discuss this issue. In view of the past literatures that study the impact of corporate social responsibility on performance, with the inconsistent conclusions, or with rare researches of the determinants of CSR. Besides, most of the literatures do not comparison the efficiency and productivity with or without CSR, and related researches are either with shorter period, or only consider specific industries. Therefore, this study constructs empirical data of financial and non-financial industry in Taiwan from 2007 to 2016. First, we use the commonwealth magazine “Corporate Citizenship Award TOP50” listed on the OTC Company’s four indicators and the total score for the cross-industry analysis. Second, we construction the panel data model of the impacts of CSR and corporate governance on operating performance, and adopt other multi-variable considerations. Then, we divide into financial and non-financial industry with or without CSR enterprises, and use data envelopment analysis (DEA) and Malmquist productivity index (MPI) to analyze the differences of efficiency and productivity. Finally, we will further examine the factors that affect the willingness of enterprises to invest in CSR. We hope that the empirical results of this study will provide reference for follow-up research, government policy formulation, business decision making and suggestions for investor investment strategies. The empirical results show that with the determinants of business performance, in ROA, ROE and EPS models, CSR is significant in non-financial industry samples, but not significant in financial industry. In respect of corporate governance, chairman of the board and owned general manager are negative significant in ROA model, the shareholding of major shareholders is significant in the EPS model. It can be seen that corporate governance helps to improve business performance. The DEA results show that CSR companies have better performance in both financial and non-financial industry. The MPI results show that CSR companies also have better performance in both financial and non-financial industry. Finally, the results of enterprises willing to invest in CSR show that, there are significant differences between financial and non-financial industry. In financial industry, the longer the company's years of establishment, the more willingness to invest in CSR. In non-financial industry the larger size of the company, the more willingness to invest in CSR.

Though both firms had high earning profit records, they differ significantly in their enterprise values currently. Hence, this study tries to explore the relation between business model and value creation of internet industry by examining the cases of Google and Yahoo!. This study first compares the differences between Google’s and Yahoo!’s business models in terms of revenue streams, cost streams, investments, and critical successful factors. Next, it uses sensitivity analysis to find out the two firms’ cirstical success factors of value creation. The findings of this study are as follows. The business model chosen by Google and Yahoo! indeed affected the value the companies. The two firms differ in target customers and customer value propositions. In the internet era, customers’ demands shift as the internet technology changes. An internet company could create value only if they would clearly understand the need of their customers and the company’s customer value proposition satisfies her customers’ demand. From the perspective of value creation, Google’s business model is better suited for the costomers’ demand than Yahoo!’s.

Because of the successful mode in the semi-conductor industry development in Taiwan, make to also have certain reputation and success in the whole world, but also brought the manufacturer of the other counties to also want to come to divide into a cup of thick soup, so, to my country manufacturer's threat also the day increases more. In light of this, the government expands the chip system a science and technology project in 2000, its main target is to become Taiwan from the global IC manufacturing center increase to have the high and additional and worth SoC design center, however have the IC design servicing business of the Silicon intellectual property (SIP) development and system on chip (SoC) design to become the government point development namely of industry. The Taiwanese SIP industry is much concentrated Be designing servicing business, and it is successful the key factor lies in the establishment, SIP of the SIP database to obtain an ability and identifies the accuracy and time limited efficacy and cooperates with an industrial to trade mode etc. factor is vitally related. The IP really is the important key factor of "the semi-conductor can continue to maintain high growth in 21 centuries", however the newly arisen silicon intellectual property industry's have no can avoid ground also wanting to face some obstacles and challenge, for example, almost have no an IC company to own the well-found Silicon intellectual property, as a result develop of does the problem include how to obtain a Silicon intellectual property outwardly? How is business Silicon intellectual property? How obtain an enough Silicon intellectual property? How insure the compatibility of the Silicon intellectual property manufacturing process?

Abstract In the dynamic world of today, modern financial institutions are increasingly more competitive and their services more versatile. In order to survive the ever-changing business environment, most major financial institutions have followed the prevalent trend of merger and acquisition to strengthen their competitiveness. Even so, financial institutions around the world have parted their cross-business structure into two main models: Universal Bank of the European region, and the Financial Holding Company of the US and Japan. This paper will first discuss related publications and the quantitative aspect of selected financial institutions for a general performance evaluation of cross-business structure of both Universal Bank and Financial Holding; and then analyze the various qualitative aspects of Universal Bank and Financial Holding Company, through the eyes of industry professionals, to provide additional statistics to the compatibility of both cross-business structures with added scale and scope as the basis of a intensive examination of the advantages and disadvantages of Universal Bank and Financial Holding Company. Research findings: 1. Currently available studies and publicly obtained financial information of the industry tend to rate Universal Banks slightly more advantageous than Financial Holding Companies. 2. Data obtained from an exclusively designed survey for this paper, which materialized financial industry professionals’ insight on six intangible aspects of the differences between UB and FHC, reveals a preference for Financial Holding Companies. Policy implication: 1. This research concluds that both Financial Holding Company and Universal Bank have their strong points. Therefore it is suggested that the government develop a multi-axles policy in which to allow each financial institution to choose its most advantageous cross-business structure. At present, the discussion of a new “Financial Service Law" is hoped to give Taiwan financial industry more choice and freedome as suggested.

A simple assembly processing mode is no longer lasting for Taiwan manufacturing industry. Due to pricing dominance, Taiwan NB manufacturers have gradually transformed to be providers having both of ODM and OBM business modes. With the rapidly innovated progress of advanced technology, NB product is getting a shorter life cycle in the more and more mature NB market. Only by adopting manufacture service concept into NPD procedure can the enterprise introduce differentiated products when facing a variety of fierce competition of industry globalization. Therefore, integrating manufacture service project into NPD activity causes a lot of conflict types from different task goals, different recognitions, different procedures, and different interest among project crews and stakeholders. However, the study focuses on what the roles PM shall act to help enterprise popping out of the bygone thinking frame, coordinate internal organization resources reducing the conflict of integrating MSP into NPD process. The research, by means of two business types, carries out 6 cases of deep interview to analyze the effect of PM roles in the face of conflict. From the study results, PM is in the face of no procedure conflict, under ODM business type, but mostly acts “disseminator” in the face of the goal conflict, mostly does “communicator” in the face of the cognitive conflict and interests conflict. Under OBM own brand business type, PM needs to act 4 multiple roles as “controller”, “disseminator”, “communicator”, and “negotiator” when facing the goal conflict, mostly does “communicator” and “negotiator” when facing the cognitive conflict, mostly does as “negotiator” when facing the procedure conflict and mostly does 4 multiple roles as “liaison”, “controller”, “disseminator” and “allocator” when facing interests conflict.

The purpose of study aims to investigate the configuration patterns when firms are in the need of transformation and the factors leading the firms to transform successfully. Employing two leading notebook manufacturers as samples and the business model canvas proposed by Alexander Osterwalder, this research has compared the strategic actions of the two firms during their strategic transformation to figure out what can make a firm perform better than the other. The results show that two sample firms conducted different strategic actions during transformation, including resource allocation and timing to enter new industries, to fit with the firms’ size and complexity of product lines. However, some common actions have been also found partly because they are in the same industry and face similar risks given in the industry. Beyond business models, firms are also suggested to focus on the strategic goal and management as well as the fitness between business models and environmental conditions.

A digital network economy is emerging where enterprise integrate virtual and physical operation model. In order to promote company performance, enterprises and with their trading partner effective electric and integration operate process is the key of success. However, at the same time, enterprises adopt electronic company and electronic commerce software and service, they find that new and legacy system have such problem: data heterogeneity、system heterogeneity. The problems cause higher the cost of integration and lower percent of success. Therefore, how to up application system and process integration success percentage is the key point of traditional enterprise to transform into electronic enterprise. The purpose of the research focus on the impact of Business-to-business application integration and bring up total model. At the same time, we focus on IT industry and Chemical Industry empirical case study. To construct the model, we identified and organized the factors that we found to be influential in the factor of open system environment B2B application integration research. All these factors together in technical organization environment B2Bi total model, we are able to investigate their relative contributions to B2B integration level. In technical construct, confer to B2Bi perceived benefit. In organization construct, confer to IT Infrastructure flexibility. In environment construct, confer to initiators exercise power and promote EC Standards in the process of B2B integration. The research conclusion as follow: (1) Technical aspect-perceived benefit: The study found that the enterprise in IT Industry adopted B2Bi focus on indirect benefit. Enterprise in Chemical industry focused on B2Bi direct benefit. Therefore, enterprise have different perceived benefit will lead to different level of B2B application integration. (2) Organization aspect-IT infrastructure flexibility: enterprise should readiness in IT infrastructure, then they have ability to initiate EC Standards. Enterprise will transform their ERP to ERPII with time. (3)Environment aspect- initiator’s power and promote EC Standards. Besides initiator exercise power to trading partner, they should use Supply Chain Management profession and resource to help their trading partner.

Despite of the offshore migration of many fastener companies to China over the past 25 years, Taiwan still ranks top five in fastener supply with a total exporting value of $4.2 billion in 2012 after 60-year development of the industry. However, in recent years, Taiwan''s fastener industry is facing international competition, the deterioration of the business environment and the international financial market volatility and other factors, so the industry is facing serious challenges. Therefore, how Taiwan companies face these challenges, by scanning the environment, self – positioning, and changing their business strategy, are the prior issues of this study. This study use environment factors, industry cluster, business ecosystem, and business strategy to analyze Taiwan fastener industry. Through these dimensions, we aim to find the key factors that affect the business strategy. This study received 141 questionnaires and use SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) for statistical analysis. The result shows that: (1) Environment factors have an impact on industry clusters. (2) Environment factors have an impact on business ecosystem. (3) Industry clusters have an impact on business ecosystem. (4) Business ecosystem has an impact on business strategy. Based on the above, this study ultimately proposes some suggestions for fastener companies break through current difficulties, and help them to make a suitable business strategy.
