The Strategic Research on Integrating Service Model for SMEs Cloud Supply Chain in Taiwan

The small and medium enterprises (SMEs) play important roles since the economic development increase in Taiwan. SMEs and Micro-business are one of the main important industries subsidized by the government actively in recent year. Most management software of cloud computing focus on internal management such as procurement, sales & stock system, CRM system and bill management system. The SMEs in Taiwan usually retain conservative attitude at the infancy stage of cloud computing technology. The proprietors have doubt to place financial data on the remote site and believe the clouding storage style is not fully mature nowadays. Our research will discuss the feasibility and market requirement on integrating service model for cloud supply chain. The preliminary conclusions are as follows： 1. The model for cloud supply chain should focus on the internal management and synchronous communication of external information to enhance the efficiency and competition ability of industries. 2. Cloud computing technology applies on supply chain system will lead the evolution of industries such as SMEs and Micro-business. 3. The charge way of integrating service model for cloud supply chain could be calculated by the amount of data records to reduce the loading cost of industry and raise the intension of implementation simultaneously 4. To establish the integrating service system for cloud supply chain on the clouding client, data and information of industries can be obtained all the time. The efficiency and quality of decision will be elevated and enhance competition of industries. To build the integrating system for cloud supply chain via the connection and integration between cloud and client (desktop/notebook, smart phone) can transfer all kinds of information to the backend on time. The further processing and analyzing will be provided for users to combine the software and hardware at any time or any place. This information not only reduces the labor cost of traditional communication way but improves the efficiency and quality of management decision. It will enhance competition ability of the whole industry and construct the core competition step by step that cannot be replaced by competitors.
