Currently, the development of China's digital economy has entered the second half, and digital transformation is deeply expanding from the consumer sector to the manufacturing sector. Among them, the digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises is the key to the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry.

Small and medium-sized enterprises account for over 90% of the total number of enterprises in China, with a large quantity and wide coverage. Accelerating the digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises is not only conducive to building a digital ecosystem of the entire manufacturing chain, process, and factors, enhancing the resilience of the industrial chain and supply chain, and improving China's industrial competitiveness, but also helps to hedge the rising cost of labor and other factors, activate the innovation ecosystem, improve production efficiency, and inject new momentum into the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry.

The digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises is an inevitable measure to cope with the digital economy era, but it is also a difficult and hot topic for the development of small and medium-sized enterprises.

Policies and enterprises working together

Building an empowerment system to overcome the difficulties of digital transformation for small and medium-sized enterprises

The digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises is a difficult point that must be overcome in the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry.

At the national level, policies are continuously increasing their support for the digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises. On August 30th, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology held a series of press conferences on "Development of Industry and Information Technology in the New Era", proposing to focus on building a policy system, support system, and empowerment system from both supply and application, and comprehensively promote the acceleration, expansion, quality improvement, and efficiency enhancement of digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises.

At the enterprise level, Huawei recently partnered with ecosystem partners such as SIE Information to launch China's first "828 B2B Enterprise Festival" based on digital empowerment, creating a platform specifically for the digital needs of small and medium-sized enterprises, fully empowering them in terms of technology, experience, and resources.

Many small and medium-sized enterprises are struggling with issues such as funding, technology, talent, and experience, and often feel hesitant to transition to digital transformation. Mr. Zhang Chengkang, Chairman and CEO of SIE, analyzed at the launching ceremony of "828 B2B Enterprise Festival" that the core of SMEs' "dare not transform" is the lack of cost-effective products, platforms and digital transformation professionals.

As a leading enterprise digital enabler in China and a practitioner of industrial management software, SIE Information will seize the pain point of "dare not turn" in the manufacturing industry, provide domestic industrial management software with high cost performance for small and medium-sized enterprises, help 100 small and medium-sized enterprises in the manufacturing industry to build benchmark intelligent factories, and stride into a new journey of intelligent manufacturing.

High cost-effective domestic industrial management software

Helping small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises easily build smart factories

SIE Information has a deep understanding and rich experience in the digital transformation of the whole value chain of manufacturing, supply chain, industrial engineering and other aspects of the manufacturing industry. This is because SIE Information has been deeply involved in the digital transformation and business transformation of more than 20 industries and thousands of enterprises in 17 years.

In the process of accelerating the application of intelligent manufacturing and the construction of intelligent factories in various industries, the support of intelligent manufacturing technologies such as digital systems and industrial software is indispensable.

SIE has independently developed the intelligent manufacturing industry software suite SMOM manufacturing operation management system based on 17 years of experience in enterprise informatization construction, especially the precipitation of digital services in the manufacturing industry. SMOM is a comprehensive solution for manufacturing enterprises, especially for discrete industries, based on the blueprint of intelligent factories and compliant with the ISA95 architecture. Starting from the supply chain end, it covers the operational processes of the manufacturing industry in all directions, including material flow, planning and scheduling, manufacturing execution, quality control, and warehouse management. It can help manufacturing enterprises achieve efficient collaboration both internally and externally, improve product quality, and reduce operating costs through the integration of multiple technologies.

For example, the high-end motor intelligent manufacturing digital factory built by SIE Information for a motor factory, with the SMOM system as the core, has built a lean production management platform that runs through ERP, PLM, WMS, barcode, workstation computer, electronic signage, DNC and other systems and tools, and has realized the improvement of production management capability, product quality, customer demand oriented timely delivery capability, product inspection equipment capability, safety production capability, production equipment capability, workshop informatization construction and workshop logistics capability.

Manufacturing is the lifeline of the national economy and the foundation of a strong country. The digital transformation of manufacturing is crucial to the future of an industrial powerhouse. 90% of SIE's customers are manufacturing enterprises. In the process of serving these enterprises, SIE always stands on the enterprise side and has accumulated rich experience in scenario application and implementation.

Focusing on the all-round needs of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises, SIE Information will continue to provide high-quality digital service products that are "affordable, usable, well used, and cost-effective", and work with ecological partners to promote more enterprises to comprehensively deepen intelligent manufacturing, from building a "digital factory" to realizing a "smart factory", helping China's manufacturing industry move towards an intelligent era.
