Abstract

With the rapid growth of economy in China, automotive industry is promptly expanding. Following the trend, there is a boom that Taiwanese automotive manufacturers start to set up plants in China. Therefore, some of Taiwanese automotive industry clusters which consist of vehicle component suppliers moving to China as well. Under the background of supply chain’s migration of automotive industry, this paper analyzes the significant differences in supplier selection of automotive manufacturers between China and Taiwan; and explore whether there is a consistency between automotive manufacturers and vehicle component suppliers on key factors. Analytic Network Process approach is applied to identify the key factors on supplier selection of automotive manufacturers. The results demonstrated that Taiwanese automotive manufacturers focus on Product Cost, followed by Quality Consistency and Payment Terms; and automotive manufacturers from China do as well; Taiwanese automotive suppliers also prioritize to Product Cost, followed by Payment Terms and Correct Delivery; suppliers from China pay much attention to Product Cost, in particular Quality Consistency and Deployment Capability of Mixed Product followed by. Based on the theory of business ecosystem, a novel view of “two places (Taiwan and China) - two parties (manufacturers and suppliers)” is presented. With the perspective of supply chains’ transferring and duplication from Taiwan to China, automotive manufacturers and parts suppliers should make some significant adjustments to differences caused by the change of key factors, which is to better meet the demand on both parties in new ecosystems.
