ABSTRACT
With quickly development of the internet, it brings lots of profit to the corpora-tions and the convenience of e-business system. E-business links to interaction of man-ufactures, suppliers and customers. The corporations used e-transaction to make B2B e-business transact more often, enhance the reliance on each other, and create the com-petitive advantage.
After the government promoted “The electronic planning among the corporations” the TAMInet Value-Added Solution (TAMIvas) implemented in 2006. The project al-lows corporations to use electronic procurement directly through the internet and there has been already accumulated over 200 suppliers. The research aims to discuss elec-tronic procurement effectiveness, suppliers’ performance impact and future develop-ment for those suppliers using TAMIvas. The result provides government and corpora-tions the direction of future development to promote e-industrialization.
This research mainly takes the machinery industry supplier as the object of study. After related literature discussion, questionnaire survey and statistical analysis, the con-clusion is as follows:
(1) Compared with traditional platform, the purchase work flow of TAMIvas is better for suppliers.
(2) Compared with traditional platform, the information conformity of TAMIvas is bet-ter for suppliers.
(3) Compared with traditional platform, the cost and the delivery date of TAMIvas are better for suppliers.
(4) Compared with traditional platform, the customer service of TAMIvas is better for suppliers.
(5) Compared with traditional platform, the elasticity and the innovation of TAMIvas are better for suppliers.
It is suggested to continuously integrate different industries and strengthen the platform function from three aspects of information flow, logistic process, and cash flow, so as to provide enterprises a smoother value-added service and increase suppliers’ fre-quency of using TAMIvas.
