In the rapidly changing market competition environment, small and medium-sized enterprises are facing many challenges. Digital transformation is the key to their sustainable development, which can not only improve efficiency, optimize management, improve product quality, but also stimulate existing market demand and promote industrial technological innovation and model change.
The current state of digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises
According to the "Survey Report on the Digital Transformation of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises" released by the China Association of Small and Medium Enterprises in September this year, 87% of enterprises invest 1%-6% of their operating income in digitalization, while 8% even invest more than 6% of their operating income in digitalization. Of these companies, 62% have already digitally transformed at least part of their business, and 25% are preparing for digital transformation.
Moreover, the purpose of digital transformation is very clear: 51.76% of enterprises aim to improve service quality and customer experience; 47.36% of enterprises hope to enhance their innovation capabilities, promote innovation activities and new product development through digital transformation; 46.7% of enterprises want to improve the efficiency of enterprise operations, optimize business processes and management models.
In terms of digital requirements, 68.94% of enterprise requirements are concentrated on processes, 67.18% of enterprise requirements are concentrated on security services, and 51.32% of enterprise requirements are concentrated on digital transformation requirements diagnosis services. In terms of investment in digital transformation, 69% of enterprises mainly introduce digital talents, and 60% of enterprises are used for technology research and development.
However, enterprises also face challenges in implementing digital transformation. The two key factors influencing the implementation of digital transformation are mainly concerns about data security (55.29%) and lack of suitable transformation solutions (53.3%).
It is not difficult to see from this research report that although limited by the impact of funds, talents and data security, many small and medium-sized enterprises still have certain difficulties in the process of digital transformation. However, the awareness of digital transformation has formed a very broad consensus among small and medium-sized enterprises, and many enterprises that have taken the lead in completing digital transformation have really tasted the sweetness of digitalization and intelligence.
Cloud intelligent control makes China's manufacturing intelligent and green
Mushroom IoT is an enterprise that focuses on manufacturing plants and provides digital intelligence energy saving and carbon reduction solutions for factory public support scenarios. This work is not simple, in order to achieve digital intelligence and carbon reduction, it is necessary to equip factories with "AI brains". To this end, Mushroom IoT has separated the public and auxiliary energy workshops that supply comprehensive energy such as water, electricity, gas, cold, and heat to the production workshops, injected HUAWEI CLOUD technology and AI capabilities into the most common parts of the entire industrial production value chain, and provided the majority of manufacturing enterprises with AI digital intelligence energy saving and carbon reduction solution - cloud intelligent control.
In the Guangqi Honda manufacturing plant where Mushroom IoT was renovated, in the past, the normal operation of its air compressor station required engineers to endure loud noise for inspection and maintenance, and inspections were carried out every two hours, each time taking one hour. Now, the cloud intelligent control of Mushroom IoT can allow engineers to complete patrol inspections on mobile phones, which greatly improves operation and maintenance efficiency, liberates operation and maintenance workers, greatly reduces their time in workshops with harsh environment and huge noise, and is a kind of protection for workers. Engineers from Guangqi Honda said: "Through AI intelligent control, the energy consumption of our workshop has decreased by about 10.3%. ”
So far, the Mushroom IoT cloud intelligent control solution has been applied in more than 1,500 industrial enterprises and more than 60 industries, helping industrial enterprises save nearly 1 billion kWh of electricity and reduce 800,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
Wuzheng will not only build agricultural machinery, but also "raise cattle"
People who have lived in rural areas probably do not know about Wuzheng, but this brand of agricultural machinery and agricultural vehicles, which is almost a household name among farmers, actually helped farmers raise cattle "without doing business" and achieved scientific management.
The biggest pain point of traditional cattle breeding is the cost of feed, and material money can account for 60%-70% of the total breeding cost. How to achieve scientific feeding of cattle has become the key to "improving quality and efficiency" in cattle breeding. If you want to feed scientifically, you must first know the weight of the cow, but it is not easy to let the cow "obediently" go on the scale, and if the cow loses its "temper" there is still a certain danger. Now, Wuzheng Group has installed electronic scales on the daily road of cattle, and the cow can quickly obtain information such as its weight as soon as it walks, and the breeder no longer has to compete with the cow.
The collected data is uploaded to HUAWEI CLOUD servers in real time for management and analysis, and then presented through the cattle and sheep health management platform. Breeders only need to sit in the office and look at the data on the screen, they can clearly know the weight changes, health conditions, feed utilization of cattle, and then feed accurately according to these data, and feed waste is greatly reduced.
Abundant, selective, preferential 828 to create a one-stop shopping platform for enterprise applications
There are many companies such as Mushroom IoT and Wuzheng Group that have gained a sense of development achievement from digital transformation, but with the deepening of digitalization, the demand for digital resources and services is growing rapidly. How to easily, efficiently and reliably obtain the digital products and solutions required for enterprise development is still a difficult problem.
In response to the difficulties of SMEs in digitalization, HUAWEI CLOUD and tens of thousands of partners jointly launched the 2nd 828 B2B Enterprise Festival, aiming to provide comprehensive digital solutions for SMEs. During the 828 B2B Enterprise Festival, HUAWEI CLOUD and its partners jointly launched B2BGO, a one-stop shopping platform for enterprise applications, providing more than 10,000 enterprise digital products and solutions, becoming a "granary" to meet the digital needs of enterprises.
The one-stop shopping platform for enterprise applications can not only provide customers with one-stop shopping services including consulting, purchase, after-sales, etc., but also provide merchants with one-stop operation services including listing, promotion, operation, marketing, etc., and provide one-stop services to complete the business closed loop by accurately connecting the supply and demand sides. It makes it easier for enterprises to acquire digital capabilities and meet various digital transformation requirements.
In addition, during the 828 B2B Enterprise Festival, HUAWEI CLOUD and more than 10,000 partners held five themed weeks and 500 enterprise thematic days, covering more than 100 cities across the country and benefiting 200,000 small and medium-sized enterprises.
Digital transformation is an important path for SMEs to achieve long-term development. HUAWEI CLOUD and tens of thousands of partners jointly built the 828 B2B Enterprise Festival and the one-stop shopping platform, which has become an important force to help small and medium-sized enterprises in mainland China transform digital transformation and promote the high-quality development of the digital economy. Through diversified solutions, professional empowerment, and clear strategic planning, HUAWEI CLOUD and its partners will continue to provide strong support for the digital transformation of SMEs in mainland China, and promote the sustainable development and competitiveness of SMEs in mainland China.
