The information management level of shoes and clothing enterprises is lagging behind, which also causes many information executives in Quanzhou to rely on "outside brain". These executives may come from consulting companies, IT companies, fast moving consumer goods industries, and so on.

Yang Chao, general manager of CIO development center, told reporters that in the current information age, the higher degree of information technology industry is the automobile industry, and the traditional industries such as shoes and clothing, the degree of information development is relatively slow.

Yang Chao introduced in Quanzhou, like Anta, XTEP,

According to the analysis of the industry, information management is no longer just repairing computers. "More resources are needed to integrate resources, and needs to be understood in many aspects, such as business, process and so on". Therefore, with the development and growth of enterprises, there is a need for information management professionals.

Shi Zhengzhi, Secretary General of Quanzhou textile and garment trade association, told reporters that Quanzhou shoes and clothing enterprises started the information very early, but the initial starting point is relatively low and the development is relatively slow.

"Anta, seven wolves and other brand-name enterprises started early, and have formed the first tier.

Last year, the company established its own data center in Shanghai, bringing the enterprise information system to a new level. The second echelon of the shoe and clothing information enterprise is taking shape.

He said recently the "Quanzhou apparel industry".

Not limited to service sales

"Last year, the degree of information technology of XTEP was already relatively high."

Wu Lianyin, vice president of XTEP (China) Co., Ltd., said that at present XTEP's internal information management has expanded to many aspects, including warehousing, distribution, finance, marketing and so on. Next, even performance management will go to the information process.

Jiang Qidang, deputy manager of Information Department of Quanzhou Haitian material Polytron Technologies Inc fabric department, also told reporters that although the company's information department belongs to the fabric department, in actual work, the scope of business processing also includes information management such as clothing, dyeing and finishing, and other departments.

Yi Yong believes that today's era is an era of explosive growth of data. In the next 10 years, enterprise information will increase by 50 times. This also determines that enterprises must go to the process of information management, and "diversified forms of information management are no longer a single aspect."

The reporter learned from the industry that the new data center, which was launched in January this year, is in addition to the production system database. It also includes more than 40 virtual servers, such as SAP/ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), DRP (Distribution Resource Planning), CRM (Customer Relationship Management), OA (Office Automation) and so on 10 business systems.

Not only is information management being diversified, information management is also gaining more and more attention from traditional enterprises in Quanzhou.

Guo Dongqiang, a professor and director of business administration at Huaqiao University, said information management existed very early.

"But before it was called the application of computers in enterprise management, the word" IT "replaced the computer and upgraded it to the application of information technology, which is inseparable from the current economic globalization, the globalization of competition and the rapid development of information technology.

Guo Dongqiang said, "before the shoes and clothing enterprises learned to develop ERP earlier, they now have their own ERP system even in the tea industry."

Change to "process officer"

Informatization will lead to the pformation of enterprise process.

Wu Lianyin said that the management of information technology is bringing about a variety of business mode changes, "for example, 22 people can install 12000 boxes of goods a day, after the implementation of information management, this link has become 13 people plus 3 warehouse managers can pack 19000 boxes of goods a day, not only the manpower saved most, but the efficiency has increased by more than 50%".

"The CIO of the enterprise will be pformed into" process officer "in the future.

Yang Chao believes that at present, within the enterprise, as CIO involves more and more departments, it is familiar with all departments' businesses, and will become an important designer of business processes in the future.

"Of course, because of the number of departments involved, a very important ability of the Information Supervisor is to coordinate the interpersonal relationship and raise the personal qualities of the Information Supervisor."

Guo Dongqiang said that the trend of enterprise information management has always been the process from single sector to inter departmental integration.

"At present, most enterprises in Quanzhou are doing information management at the enterprise level, and there will be information management at the supply chain level, that is, the information management between the upstream and downstream businesses of the supply chain will be more demanding for CIO."

He said that in the United States, there have been CKO (Chief Knowledge Officer) posts, which are the constant upgrading of the enterprise information management system.
