2.1.5 專業化策略
專業化策略為全球化競爭下之趨勢,符合「最佳的競爭即不存在有競爭者」
之競爭思維(Prestowitz, 2005)48,惟對高科技製造業而言,欲發展出成功的專業化 策略,乃建構於自身核心能力與市場需求,再考量產業競爭結構,進而整合產業 鏈內、外資源(Zook, 2004)49,並非任意擇施或單打獨鬥即能逕行為之;因此,在 製造業建構專業化策略的過程中,服務業平台即為一必要整合機制(Chen and Shyu,2004)[],可針對廠商不同核心能力及市場資訊,整合適切外部資源而提升 廠商創新,進而由此創新差異化發展為市場客製化,終而達至最適之策略專業化。
2.1.5.1 專業化策略的基本理論
產業專業化之趨勢起自於全球競爭環境的改變,由於高科技製造業正發展為 競爭者眾且供過於求之產業結構,產業驅動力由供給面逐步轉為需求面(Uiardot, 1998)50,資訊流通再無界線,各國產業之比較競爭優勢已成全球化架構下產業競 爭的關鍵成功要素(Christensen, 2001)51,而專業化策略正為各企業在衡量比較競 爭優勢下,選取最低機會成本與最具利基的產業定位方法。

過去學者分別從產業競爭趨勢演進與比較競爭優勢之角度,探討專業化之定 義與模式(Derek, 198052, Kotler, 199453, Slywotzky, 199654, Trout, 200455, You, Tu and Shyu, 200656);其後,逐漸發展出多種不同的專業化策略,從供給面觀之,
產品專業化係最常被學者提出的企業層級專業化策略(Jeff and Lawrence, 198757, Steven and Dean, 199658, Lundvall, 199859, Hamid, 200260),廠商可依據針對特定產 品的優勢,取得市場利基,其中,Allen 與 Kendall(1992)61則針對不同廠商資料,
進行實證分析。此外,多位學者亦提出聚焦於產業中特定關鍵技術發展的特定技 術專業化策略(Malerba, Orsenigo, and Peretto, 199762, Phene, Madhok, and Liu, 200563),其中,Tsang(1999)64則以全球電腦產業零組件為例,說明技術專業化策 略之運行。製造或系統設計之專業化策略在全球分工的趨勢下,亦逐漸成為重要 的研究課題,包括OEM 策略的發展與執行,均有大量實證研究成果(Christer, 199265, Gephen and Rothanberg, 200066, Chang, 200267),Paul 與 Bradley(1994)68則 從產業發展趨勢之角度,探討製造專業化的未來發展策略;對全球分工明顯的電 子產業而言,製造專業化已行之多年,

相關實證研究也極為廣泛(Hunt and Jones, 199869, Meller and DeShazo, 200170)。
就需求面而言,最常被提及的正為聚焦於品牌、通路發展或特定市場需求的 市場專業化(Capon, Hulbert, Farley, and Martin, 198871, Gael and Christopher, 199272, Frost & Sullivan, 200673);與此概念相反的是,利用市場多角化策略,取 得範疇經濟與成本優勢的多角化專業化策略(Peter, 1996, Sheth, Sisodia and Sharma., 200074, Tanner, 200175);此外,隨著產業群聚於全球各地的產生,透過 產業聚落所發展之資源整合,亦逐漸成為廠商發展過程中所追求的定位策略之一 (Feldman and Audretsch, 199976, Fujita and Thisse, 200277, Roy and Mohapatra, 200278, Desrochers and Sautet, 200479, Roland-Holst, Verbiest and Zhai, 200580),此 地緣策略可稱之為另一種區域集群之專業化,例如針對美國矽谷(Saxenian, 199481)、生技產業(Feldman, 200382)與中國大陸產業聚落(Bai, Du, Tao and Tong, 200483)等研究,均提出類似的論點。
