Computers, communications and consumer electronics (the so-called 3C industry) has rapidly become one of the fasted growing in the world. In recent years,aided by governmental and industrial promotion,Taiwan’s information electronics industry has assumed world wide importance as a producer and supplier, another economic miracle. This has helped to spur on the development of second tier electronic component producers as well upper tier raw and unfinished material suppliers. Printed circuit boards are the most indispensable and important components within the 3C industry. Their production and marketing, supply and demand are a good representation of the flourishing and withering, ups and downs, and technological standards of the 3C industry. Printed circuit boards are essential electronic component and replacement parts. In recent years,to keep up with the ever-changing manufacturing environment and fierce global market competition, enterprises have had to improve their competitiveness, and lower basic production costs as well as operational risks. They have to continue to progress, to improve, and learn to utilize different production strategies. Among these, outsourcing is one of the most common. The current trend is to take advantage of systematic contract worker management to stimulate competitiveness. More and more reputable businesses utilize outside contract workers. A well-considered organizational structure can strengthen the company’s own existing professional strength by means of desirable outsourcing and can even offer it a new lease on life. A successful model can at the same time improve client relationships. An enterprise’s limited resources can be preserved and skills focused on core superiorities,while outsourcing less important parts of the process to reduce net costs and risks, bring about more effective management. In future outsourcing, which has already become an important trend in the industry, will play an even more major role in the business world. In this research we focus on a case analysis of one printed circuit board manufacturer, Company A. We enquire in depth about this company’s long term cooperation with high standard outside contract factories, as well analyze and arrange other related documentation, to find out what are the more significant indicators for selecting outside contractors. We first, from macroscopic factors, formulate five important theoretical basic constructs. These are utilized to inquire into and evaluate the structural features of a business. These include large economies of scale, risk management, personnel relations, work type, and effective structure. Then we use four important microscopic elements: product quality, production price, service and time constraints, and tech support and logistic capability, to evaluate the degree of success at which printed circuit board producers utilize outsourcing to meet their goals. We hope this research can give directions for improvement in how such manufacturers design suitable outsourcing strategies as well as serve as an example for the Taiwan printed circuit board manufacturing community, to enter into contracting out structures, manifest their practicality and effectiveness, and to act as a reference channel for outsourcing enterprises,or to strengthen already existing effective management channels. Although Company A has found outsourcing quite effective, there are some areas that sill need improvement. For example contract outsourcing operations can become a mere formality, established outsourcing strategies can become fossilized and unresponsive. There have been uncertainties about contract and net costs. Insufficient importance has been attached to skilled contract workers, maintaining confidentiality agreements, the evaluation of effects and strategies, and new product outsourcing. Worker authentication and quality standards for outsource concessionaires need to be strengthened (in Eastern and Southern China areas)whether or not they are already participating in this plan. These are serious issues which this company must face up to and ponder over. We offer five practical and concrete suggestions related to Company A’s outside contract worker policy: to thoroughly distinguish and discuss outsourcing policies, to strengthen the product quality recognition standard of the labor suppliers, to im a timely manner evaluate and select important technological skill suppliers, to establish long-term stable collaborative partnership strategies, to speed up the authentication of integrated circuit board processes, so as to promote the economic scale of contract and labor outsourcing.
