中山科學研究院(以下簡稱中科院)自2004年起執行經濟部技術處「軍品釋商科技專案計畫」,將國防科技轉化與整合,引導產業界參與軍品研製與技術應用開發,建立國防科研與民生產業的價值轉化機制。傳統的績效評估忽略考量外部效益,然對中科院此類非營利組織而言,外部效益是相當重要的產出。本研究採用資料包絡分析法,評估軍品釋商科技專案計畫第一期專案的效率。投入項有研發經費、研究人力、研發時程;產出項則將經濟學的外部性理論納入考量,分成內部效益(技術移轉授權金收入金額)、外部效益(合作廠商獲得訂單金額),以及非金錢效益(建立合格廠商數、專利數、論文數與研究報告)。研究主要結論爲:(1)軍品釋商科技專案之內涵是軍品研製技術釋商,由各專案的整體技術效率值分析證實研發專案具有外部性,故對此類專案的績效評估應從社會整體效益來考量,避免缺乏效度。(2)建議管理者的可針對不同效益之取向,於後續軍品釋商科技專案之選商、選題採行不同策略。
Since 2004, the Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology (CSIST) has been conducting the Technology Development Program for Outsourcing Defense Products (TDP), which is a program under the Ministry of Economic Affairs and purports to release the national defense technologies to civilian enterprises. The program is designed to encourage local firms to join defense technology research in order to create commercial application values. Traditional performance evaluation often neglects external benefits of a program. However, for a non-profit organization such as CSIST, the external benefits are important outputs. This research utilizes data envelopment analysis (DEA) to evaluate the efficiency of TDP projects. With the help of Dual-use Technology Cooperation Program of CSIST, the official data (2004-2006) were obtained from MOEA. There are three inputs in the model: funds, manpower and time span. The six outputs include royalty revenue derived from CSIST technology transfers, sales order from cooperated parties, qualified vendors, patents, papers and research reports. All nominal variables are transformed into real variables at the price level of 2004. The results suggest that: (1) Taking into account the external benefits in evaluating process gives a better insight into the efficiency of TDP projects. (2) The TDP managers may apply different strategies to collect desirable technology and qualified companions.
