1. Information construction - national beverage brands join hands with enterprises to drive digital and intelligent transformation through digital procurement
Jianlibao was founded in 1984, after 40 years, Jianlibao has grown into a beverage production as the leading industry, with a well-known beverage brand that is well-known throughout the country. The company has a series of well-known brands such as Jianlibao, 5th Season, Micro Sparkling Water, Love Sports, Chaodeeng, Pop Fruit Steam, etc., among which the core brand "Jianlibao" is the first sports drink containing electrolytes in mainland China, and has the reputation of "China's electrolyte beverage pioneer".

With the multi-dimensional same frequency resonance of manufacturing, products, brands, teams, marketing, and terminals, Jianlibao has been deeply cultivated in the fields of health, sports and food, and has created a stable and reliable user reputation. As of now, Jianlibao has established a series of internal management digital matrices such as SAP, OA, ERP, HR, etc., to help enterprises reduce costs and increase efficiency through efficient collaboration between systems.
At the same time, behind the growing Jianlibao beverage business, there is an urgent need for a powerful and targeted digital system to improve the efficiency of procurement management. Therefore, after many market research and comparisons, Jianlibao chose to work together with Qiqitong to build a digital procurement supply chain management system through the SRM project to enhance the core competitiveness of the enterprise.
2. Construction goal - to create a full-process, multi-category, multi-mode procurement management platform
In the preliminary investigation, Qiqitong learned that Jianlibao faced many troubles in the procurement management process - the procurement process was cumbersome and redundant, and the efficiency was low; There is a lack of coordination between functional departments within the company, and the daily workload of procurement personnel is gradually increasing; It is difficult to precipitate procurement process data, and it is difficult to analyze and share process data; The lack of unified tool support restricts the development of Jianlibao.
In response to the core demands of the enterprise, Qiqitong will assist it in establishing a management system that meets the needs of Jianlibao Group Enterprise with multiple organizations and multiple structures, and supports the centralized procurement of enterprises, taking into account the mode of decentralized procurement, and the construction goals are mainly as follows:
●Whole process: The whole process of supplier access, classification, evaluation and elimination of the whole life cycle operation from demand, sourcing and pricing to order to payment, and the whole process of electronic procurement;
● Multi-category: Meet the management of material categories such as enterprise production procurement, non-biological material procurement, and non-biological service procurement, and expand other categories;
● Multi-mode: Meet the transaction management mode, mall-based management mode, ecological platform management mode and other modes;
● Unified platform: build internal and external system integration, data traceability and precipitation, realize data-based decision-making, and create an integrated management platform;
●Cost reduction and efficiency increase: Effectively implement the flexible configuration of the target business scenario of centralized procurement, which is convenient and easy to use, and intelligently reminds to reduce costs and increase efficiency.
3. Project Initiation - Jointly build a benchmark for the digital application of SRM in the field of retail consumption
For this cooperation, the senior management of both Qiqitong and Jianlibao have paid great attention to it. Mr. Zhao, executive vice president of Jianlibao, said that the construction of SRM system is one of the core business systems of Jianlibao's digital transformation, and the cooperation between Jianlibao and Qiqitong hopes that Jianlibao SRM project is the best practice for Qiqitong to promote and introduce projects to other companies in the future; On the other hand, it is hoped that after the project is launched, the real link between enterprises will be completed and long-term development will be promoted. Finally, I hope that the SRM journey of Jianlibao and Qiqitong is pleasant, and I wish the project a successful launch.
Mr. Li, CIO of Jianlibao, mentioned that Jianlibao's positioning itself is to promote business change with the help of new technical means and new systems. As one of the leading partners in the field of SRM in China, Qiqitong hopes that the two sides can achieve the same team, the same goal, symmetrical information and sufficient communication between the two sides, so as to realize the overall digital transformation of Jianlibao as the ultimate goal, promote the smooth progress of the project, and help Jianlibao reduce costs and improve efficiency.
Mr. Yang, director of Jianlibao Purchasing Headquarters, said that the construction of SRM system is not a choice question, but a mandatory question. SRM system has been quite mature today, and Jianlibao's SRM is from scratch, there are many learning opportunities in the future, for the future of cooperation, the two sides should actively communicate, learn from each other, high-quality and efficient completion of SRM smart procurement system construction, I hope SRM is just the first step of Jianlibao reform, the future is looking forward to using SRM system to explore more opportunities for change.
Mr. Xiong, Vice President & Head of Solution Center of Qiqitong, said: "Thank you very much to Jianlibao for choosing Qiqitong as a partner to complete the SRM project, Qiqitong will rely on its own mature SRM implementation methodology to provide Jianlibao with an efficient and collaborative, cost-reducing and efficiency-increasing digital procurement system, and open up the complete link of Jianlibao from suppliers to customers. Next, we will complete the various stages of future project research and launch according to the rhythm, and jointly create a digital application benchmark for SRM projects in the consumer field. ”
4. SRM value - to create a safe, compliant, efficient and reliable procurement supply chain management system
At the kick-off meeting, the person in charge of the SRM project of Qiqitong gave a detailed introduction to the overall informatization blueprint, planning suggestions, resource guarantee, organizational structure, and responsibilities of project team members of the Jianlibao SRM project.
