Industrial informatization platforms and software are numerous, with different directions and functions
For different industry categories, production processes, plant location and even the entire factory business management processes, there are different software service providers, how to understand their own situation to choose the corresponding appropriate software products and implementation of the program, for the lack of expertise and personnel reserves of the enterprise, is a very difficult thing.
This also makes a lot of manufacturing companies, although the digitalization of the early start, but not long after the stagnation, or even progress backwards. For example, system incompatibility, duplication of construction, front-line employees are difficult to implement .... The emergence of many problems, resulting in business managers in the process of launching the digitalization is always in a weak position.
It is difficult to assess the benefits brought by digitization. Many factories have just gotten on the fast track of positive development due to business expansion, and tend to put their energy into adding new production lines or sub-factories. However, due to the rapid expansion of scale and the urgent need for a systematic management system to support, so the procurement of information technology systems are likely to distract the resources of business expansion.
It is often difficult for managers to choose between the visible immediate benefits and the uncertain long-term benefits.
Digitization involves many departments, many positions, and long processes, and is difficult to realize. Digitalization is a systematic project, to achieve sales, R & D, design, procurement, production, assembly, transportation, each link has its own digital system and business processes, then involves so many departments and positions to provide training, guidance will be a very difficult and difficult task.
Recommendations for digital transformation
First, the choice of their own industry has a deep knowledge of the service provider, the early bad judgment, you can choose more than a few, multi-faceted comparison of judgment, such as the size of the service provider, technical strength, product maturity, the choice of service providers is one aspect, but also pay special attention to the implementation of each digitalization project is not the key to the success of the service provider, but rather, service providers of the project manager or pre-sales consultants, their level directly Their level directly determines the success or failure of the project.
Second, as the decision-making level of the enterprise to have the right decision. First of all, we must realize that the enterprise to achieve stable development and expansion, to be able to maintain an advantage in the fierce competition in the market, and even to meet the downstream customer lean production and traceability requirements, the digital system is not a question of whether or not to do, but should be how to do the problem. The system does not solve the enterprise's management problems, but to assist business managers to develop management standards, improve the management process, so as to achieve the overall production efficiency and product quality improvement.
Third, the enterprise implementation of digital systems is a long process. Must not be a simple software system on a smooth, the system in the end is just a tool, the business logic behind the system to solve the problem is the key, the architecture of the system is a major innovation in the enterprise's entire management model, which will affect many people's work habits and interests, if the leadership does not pay attention to, do not personally promote, and do not formulate a number of incentives or incentives, then, the probability of success of the implementation of the system will also be greatly reduced.
