This research is to do a study on the technology sourcing strategy for the information technology or the technology of information products while the high-tech domestic corporations are choosing to develop the information system technology. These three strategies are: the way of technology sourcing, the characteristics of technology, and the factors that are beyond the products. To discuss the strategic affected factors while choosing the technology sourcing strategy is the main thesis.The information electronic industry is the main object in this research. Each corporation discusses for the mode of information system technology sourcing. The result shows that ¡§the in-housing R&D ¡¨ is the priority to be considered while high-tech domestic corporations are thinking about information system technology sourcing. But the result also shows that professional knowledge in cost and in the information system technology personnel is insufficient. The studied corporations used the way of ¡§in-housing R&D¡¨ at the beginning, and then they get the technology via outsourcing. The main reason for that is to shorten the period of research time and make the cost lower.
In the affected factors among the decided ways of information system technology, the most conspicuous way is the ¡§availability of licensing-in¡¨. The author through deeply interviewing with studied corporations found out that the technology sourcing strategies of information system are multi-channel. The ¡§technology outsourcing¡¨ and ¡§in-house R&D¡¨ are not substitute, however, are complementary. Among the technology sourcing strategies, ¡§the availability and urgency of licensing-in¡¨ plays an important role, that is, the main part of transaction cost items of each cost. As a whole, transaction cost theory could explain the evaluation while the corporations are making the information system strategy.
