Abstract
For recent years, enterprises in Taiwan face the challenges of global competition. Most of Taiwan companies cannot compete with international companies on capital or scale. Thus cooperation with competitors or formation of strategic alliance become one of the best policy of reducing management and sales cost of entering new market and business risks. For the small-and-medium size enterprises which own unique skills but are lack of resources and new technologies, it could be the niche of entering global market to obtain transfer of technologies and management skill from superior internationalized enterprises.

Through technology breakthrough and industrial revolution, it gradually turns into a mass production industry. Like most of the other industry, in recent years, Taiwan was developed to be an important manufacturing base of the global door lock industry.
