The security of the global ** chain has once again become the focus.

Since the new round of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the maritime security situation in the Red Sea region has been tense, and in the past few days, there have been frequent attacks on cargo ships in the Red Sea, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, and nearby waters, resulting in four international shipping giants, namely Hapag-Lloyd of Germany, Maersk Line of Denmark, Mediterranean Shipping Company, and CMA CGM of France, to announce the suspension of navigation in the Red Sea one after another.

With the uncertain international situation such as weakening demand, the continuation of wars, anti-globalization, and the confrontation and grouping of major powers, various changes in the external environment may affect the first chain of enterprises, and then affect the normal production and development of enterprises.

How to build a "resilient" chain is crucial.

On December 19, Tiger Sniff Think Tank held an online seminar with the theme of "Case Analysis of Resilience Chain in Manufacturing".The meeting focused on the analysis of important contents such as multi-terminal chain collaboration and multi-level business management such as quality management, procurement, inventory and bookkeeping managementExperts from Yuanshu Technology, Yonyou Network, Qiqitong and other enterprises were invited to share case practices and views.

The following is a summary of the guests' views:

The quality management of the chain is key

In the process of globalization, improving the quality of the first chain is a key factor, which requires interoperability between enterprises, including order design, capital, financial services and logistics. With the acceleration of R&D in the industrial chain, the product iteration cycle is shortened, resulting in an increase in product complexity and an increase in quality risks. In order to solve the problem of product quality, upstream and downstream enterprises need to cooperate. Enterprises should look for new means or business models to promote the improvement of the quality of the first chain.

The quality digital collaboration of the entire industrial chain needs to realize the quality standards of the main enterprise and brand owners of the chain through the Internet of Things, big data and interconnected technology, and run through the top businesses at all levels. At the same time, reduce the cost of quality inspection and supervision, enhance the credibility of enterprises, and eliminate quality risks. Taking the consumer electronics industry as an example, the first-class chain quality engineer of the main chain enterprise can participate in the upstream quality control process and promote the first-class supplier to inspect at the level of parts and components standards. Through the Internet of Things technology, the key equipment on the production line is connected to ensure that the data is true and reliable, and the best business can collect and analyze data to improve quality.

Quality management no longer serves a single enterprise, but is oriented to the digital transformation of the industrial chain of the first chain. Through the whole process of quality traceability, the quality of all links at all levels from grade to front end can be quickly corrected. At the same time, the construction of a cross-enterprise multi-level management platform requires the joint efforts of chain owners and leading merchants.

Procurement, inventory, bookkeeping and other multi-terminal collaboration and efficiency improvement play an important role

In the process of digital transformation of enterprises, it is necessary to form a good collaboration model with upstream and downstream to reduce the cost of the chain and give full play to real value. The categories and capabilities that the core enterprises have advantages in the procurement process can be exported to other first-class merchants to realize the interconnection of the industrial chain. In order to achieve this goal, it is necessary to break down the resource barriers between enterprises, revitalize enterprise data assets, and realize the interconnection of the industrial chain.

For the collaboration between the top businessmen, it will become the ecological synergy relationship of the first chain, and everyone will be for each other's customers and businessmen. In this process, it is necessary to collaborate with the basic data of the enterprise, and at the same time, it is necessary to coordinate the demand planning, purchase order execution, external output categories and even sales orders, which is non-one-way, is a network-like form, and there is a business intersection between each other.

In the process of procurement execution of a customer in the electric drive industry, the demand information is mastered through the operation platform to realize the coordination of order execution, reconciliation and quality problems. Through information collaboration, it helps to reduce costs and improve value. At the same time, through the application behind the best process nodes, procurement personnel can deal with anomalies and data observation in real time. Taking material linkage pricing as an example, by grasping the cost of materials, the price is combined.

Based on the four core management change directions of design collaboration, procurement collaboration, planning collaboration, and supervision and supervision of the entire procurement execution process, the transformation from reactive centralized procurement to strategic procurement is carried out. Through the system-level program architecture, the efficiency of procurement execution is improved, and the difficulty of communication between the business side is reduced. At the same time, all the business processes on the buyer's side are online, including demand management, bidding management, virtual price, bidding and procurement contract planning, etc., covering all the main businesses in the daily process of procurement.

The construction of digital construction and the construction of the first chain of smart enterprises involves many aspects

In order to help modern enterprises cope with the challenges in many fields and build the unique core competitiveness of enterprises, more requirements are put forward for the depth and breadth of enterprise chain management. In order to realize the intelligent management of the first chain, it is necessary to carry out the construction of the strategic organization, capacity support, standard system, and personnel support of the first chain.

The construction of a digital chain is to help enterprises connect equipment, monitor data, and optimize production capacity. By building an intelligent chain, it will give business risks and the ability to automatically adapt and adjust, and also give stronger flexibility and resilience to the enterprise chain facing many challenges. The three dimensions of the chain system: internal chain system, external business collaboration and business collaboration. First of all, the internal **chain system needs to carry out data sharing and information transfer to improve efficiency. Secondly, collaboration and data sharing with external suppliers are also an important part. Thirdly, collaboration between business units and collaboration between departments is also key. Finally, group-based procurement can be divided into various types, such as centralized procurement, direct procurement, and indirect procurement.

A large electrical appliance manufacturing enterprise has formed a high degree of cooperation with external suppliers by standardizing the procurement business process, opening up the cooperation link between supply and procurement, and building a unified and standardized first-chain management platform. On the one hand, we should do a good job in the management of the whole life cycle of the first business, and establish a complete mechanism from the aspects of business sourcing, cooperation process, risk monitoring and performance evaluation. First of all, through professional data screening, and then through the third-party credit information platform to export basic information, create a file. In the process of cooperation, conduct in-depth investigation of the best businessmen, generate distribution reports, and different categories of business can distinguish different processes for management. After the completion of the cooperation, the first business is evaluated, divided into production and non-production, and based on objective and subjective indicators. In the process of cooperating with the best businessmen, multi-dimensional risk monitoring is carried out.

At the same time, the enterprise has achieved complete process management in the procurement business collaboration and business collaboration, accelerating the flow of information flow in the first chain. Including procurement**, order collaboration, receipt planning, quality control and other aspects. First of all, the Chamber of Commerce makes a commitment based on the demand, and the purchaser can receive feedback in a timely manner. Secondly, the complex business process relationship of subsidiaries within the group is semi-automatic order conversion and distribution through the SRM system. The system then records the quality of the arrival and the receipt of the goods, among other things. In addition, the chain master enterprise and the first business have also carried out in-depth cooperation in quality, unified and centralized management of the quality report pool, opened up the quality report of multiple business links between the first business business and the procurement enterprise, and improved the quality of materials.

The audience of this event includes researchers from Peking University, China Industrial Internet Research Institute, Zhejiang University School of Economics and other universities and research institutes, executives and leaders of well-known enterprises such as Alibaba, LONGi Green Energy, Hongta Tobacco Group, Meituan, Geely, etc., as well as investors from well-known investment institutions. At the meeting, everyone had in-depth exchanges on how to do a good job in business management at different levels, how to do a good job in the quality coordination of the industrial chain and other details, and the guests also gave corresponding suggestions and thoughts. After in-depth exchanges between the guests and the audience, the event ended successfully.
