Seven Improvements In The Basic Environment And Platform Of Supply Chain Management

Compared with other industries, logistics informatization started late, but developed very fast, giving people a sense of gradual improvement.

Looking back on the progress of logistics informatization in recent years, there are at least seven aspects that give prominence to people.

First, the basic environment of logistics informatization has been significantly improved.

Represented by the nine ministries' opinions on promoting the development of China's modern logistics industry, governments at all levels have taken logistics informatization as a basic building into planning.

In the medium and long term science and technology planning research of the country

Information technology and standardization are listed as the two major key technologies of logistics technology.

Second, the construction of logistics public information platform has made new progress.

For example, the construction of the three major platforms of the Ministry of Communications: networking charges, security monitoring (building quality and safety monitoring and water pport safety monitoring), and public information services have made new progress.

In the 10 intelligent pportation system demonstration cities designated by the Ministry of science and technology during the "fifteen" period, almost all the research and development of pportation integrated information platform is an important part of the demonstration project. At present, various cities have made some progress, and some cities are beginning to enter the implementation stage.

In addition to logistics, such as customs clearance,

New Baiyun Airport "

Third,

Fourth, the new technology represented by RFID shows strong impact.

This year, RFID may be a technology hotspot unanimously recognized at home and abroad. In particular, strong enterprises such as WAL-MART and METRO have asked their suppliers to start using RFID since 2005, which makes the application prospect of this technology more and more concerned.

China also has successful application cases such as Haier group's automated warehouse management system and railway ministry's vehicle scheduling system. However, for the whole country, the lack of successful application cases is still the primary factor affecting this technology promotion.

Fifth, the application of information system in supply chain management is faster than expected.

Two years ago, when we were collecting logistics information application cases, there was a statistics showing that the information system that belonged to supply chain management at that time did not exceed 5%.

The supply chain management system has two obvious characteristics, one is the business scope is broader, not only logistics, but also business flow or even capital flow, service content is expanded according to the customer's request, the personalization characteristic is also more prominent; two, it requests the information system to be more open, must link up with the customer's system, conformity, realizes the business cooperation.

Leading enterprises in various industries, such as Xinhua Pharmaceutical, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Chunlan, Shanghai tobacco group, YOUNGOR group, have implemented SCM management applications.

Galanz's supply chain management system established on the basis of integrated distribution channels further improves market reaction speed, accurately predicts customer demand, scientifically arranges production and marketing plans, speeds up inventory turnover and avoids sluggish inventories.

Shandong Luneng fan Mao logistics company successfully established the supply chain in the coal field. From the coal being dug up, pportation to the recovery and utilization of cinder, and the deep burial of waste, the integrated information management has been realized from coal mine procurement logistics to distribution logistics.

Sixth, the development of E-government has promoted the promotion of logistics information.

Public services and government regulation have become the focus of e-government since this year.

The opening of Beijing Shenyang Expressway Network Toll collection has realized the pformation of expressway from segmented construction, split management to integrated management and network management, providing experience for exploring and perfecting the expressway management system and new operation mode; the "green channel" customs information system established by Jiangsu Province, and the export of high-tech enterprises can enjoy six major facilitation, such as advance declaration, networking declaration, quick pfer, on-site check and release, urgent clearance and security check and release.

In addition, the accumulation of these data also contributes to the construction of social credit system.

Seventh, competition among suppliers of logistics systems has intensified, and the profit model has not yet been mature.

Domestic and foreign famous logistics systems suppliers have begun to pay attention to the middle and low end markets in China, such as ORACLE, SAP and other companies, which have launched simplified version of logistics or supply chain management software systems, marching into the middle and low end markets; in addition, new IT companies have entered the domestic logistics market, such as the US Unicorn remote creation and China Aerospace Group.

But on the other hand, many logistics providers are losing money or even closing down, leaving the market.

Even profitable enterprises are exploring how big the logistics information market is.

What is the profit model?

A number of enterprises have begun to pform from simple information system providers to participate in logistics operations and become service providers.
