許多學者已廣泛研究有關生態系統(Ecosystem)的議題，當中涵蓋了各個不同領域。不論是由Adner (2017)以組織關係和活動系統的角度探討生態系統，或是Jacobides、Cennamo和Gawer (2018)將生態系統區分為平台生態系統、商業生態系統和創新生態系統等主要類型。其中，生態系統的生殖力(Generativity)觀點也受到越來越多學者的關注，本研究通過整理和總結學者對生殖力的理解和討論，將採用Thomas & Tee針對生殖力所提出之社會技術性的概念框架進行論述。然而，近年來大多數針對生態系統之生殖力的研究仍以量化研究方法為主，並以大型企業或集團作為供應商或客戶的角色為研究對象，鮮少提及身為中小型企業的生態系統指揮者(Orchestrator)，在有限資源的情況之下如何有效運用生態系統的生殖力，讓總體生態系統及其內部利害關係人都能獲益的同時，持續為其創造新價值並維持生態系統的競爭優勢，以實現永續發展的長期目標。本研究以生態系統和生殖力的理論觀點為基礎，選擇在台灣軟體資訊產業的中小型企業「一等一科技」作為研究對象，並運用質性研究方法中的個案研究法，對個案實務現象的情境脈絡進行深入分析，試圖探討作為生態系統中擔任指揮者(Orchestrator)角色何以連結各利害關係人，透過彼此之間持續的交流互動、協作和創新，推動生態系統以促進其永續發展。
根據本研究結論，作為生態系統的指揮者，透過建立一個具有生殖性潛能的生殖性架構，提供利害關係人自由串接各自技術或產品的平台，並促進內部發表建議和交流互動，在提高利害關係人之間的異質性的同時，降低限制內部互動的因素，提升內部溝通和聯絡的便利性，最終透過不斷改進和優化生殖性架構，加速生態系統實現永續發展。

The topic of Ecosystems has been extensively studied by many scholars, covering a wide range of fields. Among them, the view of ecosystem's generativity has received more and more attention. This research adopts the socio-technical conceptual framework proposed by Thomas & Tee. However, in recent years, most of the studies on ecosystem generativity still focus on quantitative research methods and use the role of large enterprises as suppliers or customers as the target of research, but seldom mention how to effectively utilize the ecosystem generativity as an ecosystem orchestrator of small and medium-sized enterprises with limited resources, so that the total ecosystem and its internal stakeholders can achieve the long-term goal of sustainability.

Based on the theoretical perspectives of ecosystem and generativity, this research selects E-Excellence Incorporation as a study case and uses the case study method of qualitative research to conduct an in-depth analysis of the context of the case practical phenomenon. Then, further analyzes how the case uses its ecosystem’s generativity to connect the stakeholders of value creation activities and keep generating innovation. Finally, those created solutions to solve practical problems and promote the development of ecosystem’s generativity.

According to the conclusion of this research, as the orchestrator of the ecosystem, by establishing a generative architecture with high generative potential, providing a platform for stakeholders to freely link their respective technologies or products, and facilitating internal suggestions and interactions, we can enhance the heterogeneity among stakeholders, reduce the factors that limit internal interactions, and enhance the convenience of internal communication and liaison. In the end, through continuous improvement and optimization of the generativity framework, we will accelerate the ecosystem to achieve the overall goal of sustainability.
