| To survive and grow in the competition circumstances of information era, certain information instruments for effectively digging and utilizing the information are necessary to the Large-scale Manufacturing Enterprises. As one of the most impartment and effective instruments, the CIS (Competitive Intelligence System) were noticed and put into use by more and more the Large-scale Manufacturing Enterprises. By concerning these circumstances, some competitive intelligence theories were analyzed in this paper by concerning the characteristics of implementation of CIS in industry. Then a series of methods and steps for establishing a CIS in the Large-scale Manufacturing Enterprises were introduced. By evaluating the CIS of an enterprise, some strategies were made to improve it.The research on the CIS in Large-scale Manufacturing Enterprises should be based on the clear analysis of its definition, function, and status quo, which is the beginning of the paper.For establishing the CIS, its basic component and structure were analyzed, and some essentials for CIS as well. Then a seven-step of establishing mechanism of CIS was put forward. The CIS were classified into four stages, and their functions in the enterprises were discussed subsequently.By studying its evaluation methods and their function, principles and flow, the CIS can be divided into two parts of operation and management levels. The operation level can be divided vertically into six parts of information source—information collection—information management—information diffusion—information software—information products and service. The management level can be divided into four parts of decision-making assistant ability, operation pattern, human resource and competitive intelligence mechanism. Then the structure of information project risk in an enterprise was described by using the fish bone method. A five-part index system for Large-scale Manufacturing Enterprises was established on the base of the above analysis. Then the fuzzy evaluation method was chosen to establish the CIS evaluation model of Large-scale Manufacturing Enterprises. And the HanWang Technology Co. Ltd. and its CIS were chosen as an example to be evaluated.The purpose of evaluating the CIS in Large-scale Manufacturing Enterprises is to improve the CIS and benefit the enterprise. So strategies of operation and management levels were made on the base of the above evaluation in order to improve the CIS of the enterprise. |
