Since Porfit Center had been applied in DuPont Company in 1920, it has become a popular business model which emphasized on elevating employees¡¦ self-commitment by sharing company¡¦s profit and has been adopted by companies around the world. For the construction industry in Taiwan, due to the decline of real estate market, the deflation of national construction plans and the action of joining into WTO, most construction companies are experiencing their difficult time and therefore are eager to make some changes. Profit Center then has been regarded as a helpful construction management tool to achieve higher performance.
This thesis is a case study for a construction company that locates in southern Taiwan and is planning to introduce Profit Center into its system to improve its performance. This thesis follows Habitual Domains¡]HD¡^theory and Analytic Hierarchy Process ¡]AHP¡^method to create the key success factors ¡]KSF¡^for the case company, and a priority list that rankes by the weight index is built at the end of this thesis.
To allocate their resource more efficiently for applying the Profit Center, a construction company is suggested to build its own key success factors based on the perspective of construction industry. That is, unlike emphasizing on hwo to share profit as other industries are used to, this study discovered that because high risks and frequent design¡¦s variation might greatly affect the cost of a construction project, the Profit Center in a construction firm is required to focus on how to keep encouraging its employees if the profit of the project is diminished due to the reasons as aforesaid.
