Recently, the equipment manufacturing industry has landed another blockbuster new regulations! The State Administration for Market Regulation and other five departments jointly issued the first (set) of new regulations for the testing and evaluation of major technical equipment - "China's first (set) of major technical equipment testing and evaluation management measures (trial)". The new regulations not only standardize the evaluation process of the first (set) product, but also put forward relevant regulatory requirements for the institutions responsible for testing and review.
What is the first (set) major technical equipment?
The first (set) of major technical equipment refers to equipment products that have achieved major technological breakthroughs and have intellectual property rights, but have not yet achieved obvious market performance, including complete equipment, core systems and key components. According to the company's knowledge of science and technology GPT, in order to encourage the independence, localization and industrialization of major domestic technical equipment, and enhance the ability of independent research and development and innovation, the state has formulated and introduced a series of support policies related to the first (set) major technical equipment, covering capital subsidies, tax incentives, financial support and insurance protection.
Although the first (set) of major technical equipment has reached the domestic or international leading level in terms of technology, and some products are even better than foreign products of the same type in terms of price and industrial chain safety, it is difficult to obtain customer trust due to the lack of sales performance and authoritative certification endorsement, resulting in market promotion failure and wasting enterprise R&D investment.
The five departments jointly issued the first (set) testing and evaluation management measures, which not only standardized the product evaluation conditions and procedures, but also clarified the selection criteria and supervision and management requirements of the testing and evaluation institutions, greatly improved the professionalism and authority of the first (set) testing and evaluation, and further strengthened the technical endorsement of the product, which is conducive to alleviating the market's doubts about the product and helping the product to quickly open the market.
In addition to marketing support, enterprises that have obtained the first (set) certification can also enjoy a series of special fund support policies such as sales subsidies, procurement subsidies, premium subsidies, tax exemptions, etc., and direct financial subsidies can effectively reduce the cost of R&D and innovation of enterprises.
For example, Shenzhen will give up to 10 million yuan of subsidy to the first (set) recognized enterprise, and Zhejiang Province will give an annual insurance subsidy of up to 5 million yuan to the first (set) recognized product, in addition, the National Development and Reform Commission also proposed that the first (set) product can enjoy preferential tax policies such as pre-tax additional deduction and accelerated depreciation of fixed assets.
How to apply for the assessment of the first (set) of major technical equipment?
According to the new regulations, the State Administration for Market Regulation will carry out the first (set) major technical equipment testing and evaluation once a year, if the enterprise independent research and development equipment products belong to the scope of the "first (set) major technical equipment promotion and application guidance catalog", have independent intellectual property rights, and have not yet achieved major market performance, you can participate in the application for China's first (set) major technical equipment testing and assessment, the specific application and evaluation process is divided into five links: application, acceptance, evaluation, publicity, and release, and the specific assessment process is as follows:
With the rapid development of the equipment manufacturing industry, how can enterprises grasp the development opportunities?
With the acceleration of new industrialization, the equipment manufacturing industry has entered a critical period of transformation and development. The first (set) of new regulations landed, for the equipment manufacturing enterprises is both an opportunity and a challenge, the opportunity lies in the innovation and development of more security, the challenge is that there will be more high-quality equipment products into the market, the industry competition will be more intense. In this regard, how should enterprises grasp the policy opportunities to meet the challenges?
According to the enterprise policy database, up to now, nearly 1,000 subsidy policies related to equipment manufacturing have been introduced in various provinces, municipalities and regions across the country, and the support direction covers R&D subsidies, honorary qualifications, management improvement, financing loans and other aspects.
For example, Shenzhen has proposed a technological transformation support plan for the intelligent improvement of technology and equipment, and will give a maximum of 30 million yuan of funding for the completion of intelligent transformation projects; the Sichuan Provincial Department of Economy and Information Technology has publicly solicited a recommended catalogue of green and low-carbon technology and equipment in the industrial field, and has carried out key promotion and market resource matching for the selected equipment.
Relevant enterprises can grasp the opportunity of industrial development, pay attention to the latest equipment development policies in their regions, accelerate the R&D and innovation of major technical equipment with the help of preferential policies, and promote the transformation and development of enterprises.
