Since TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacture Company) foundation in 1987, the "fabless"business model has been also introduced to semiconductor industry. TSMC was the first foundry service company globally and has successfully created a global competitive advantage with prosperity in Taiwan semiconductor industry. Taiwan has been developing into a unique business model that also brings many other competitors worldwide to compete in the same field. Currently, Mainland China showers her interested in semiconductor industry, especially in IC foundry. China can be one of the most important manufacturing centers globally in recent years.
The primary purpose of this research is to understand the present stage of foundry play companies as well as the future trends of semiconductor industry across Taiwan Strait .Moreover, this research will focus on the competitive
advantages that Taiwan should have to strengthen the dominant position in the mainland China. Recommendations and suggestions will be stated in the conclusion for the future reference of Taiwan foundry industries and official
authorities.
The research model composes five factors each as Input Conditions,Demand Conditions, Firm Strategy and Rivalry, Related and Supporting Industries, and Government, which are referred to the Diamond Analysis created by Michael Porter. Secondly, collect and analyze the information
about manufacturing capacity, market opportunities, and supply & demand relations of major companies between China and Taiwan. After that, this research goes through five kinds of analysis models¡BDiamond Analysis to find out the strength, weakness, opportunity, and threat to Taiwan¡¦s foundry industry.
This research reveals that Taiwan¡¦s foundry industry should focus on major competition strategies - technology improvement, service enhancement ¡Bindustry cluster advantage and excellent supply chain management . China is expected to be the next crucial nation by having
advantages of big market, low cost on labor and materials, high goverment efficiency, package incentive for foreign investment and etc. Taiwanese foundry play companies must strategically utilize the advantagies from the two sides to implement the division of operating to optimize the allocation in capital,technology, human resource and risk diversification. Meanwhile, the official authorities should provide more supports to the industry under the laws
legislation, industrial regulation & planning. In addition, the authorities should use advance view to making policy to assist Taiwan¡¦s foundry industry
remaining the leadership in the global competition.
