Since the founding of New China, my country's textile industry has truly grown from small to large, from weak to strong. Especially in the past ten years or so, the textile industry has thoroughly implemented new development concepts, been down-to-earth, pioneering and innovative, achieved historic breakthroughs, and painted a magnificent new picture.
In the current era of policy-driven, integrated development, and intelligent transformation, digital technology has become the leading force leading industrial change, opening up new and huge growth space for the development and breakthrough of traditional industries, and the textile industry is no exception.
As an enterprise established in 2002, Huansi Smart Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as: Huansi Smart) has always focused on the textile and apparel industry and has become a pioneer and leader in the smart industry in the textile industry.
Huansi Wisdom, Industry Pioneer
In December 2023, the fifth UFIDA Enterprise Cloud Service Developer Competition with the theme of "Intelligent Construction and Unbounded Code" concluded successfully. In this fierce battle among strong players, Huansi Wisdom and its "Textile Industry Industry and Finance Integrated Joint Solution" stood out. After three rounds of trials in the preliminary round, semi-finals and finals, they won the "Lighthouse Case Award" in one fell swoop.
Xiao Ruofa, executive vice president of Huansi Wisdom, said that although Huansi Wisdom was also engaged in ERP in the early days and seemed to overlap with UFIDA’s main business, the products of the two companies are quite different. Huansi Wisdom’s ERP mainly focuses on The production management system of the textile industry does not involve the integration of industry and finance.
Based on long-term practice and in-depth observation in the clothing field, Xiao Ruofa believes that the integration of industry and finance will be an inevitable choice for the sustainable and healthy development of such enterprises. Therefore, Huansi Wisdom needs to join forces with the industry's leading forces to integrate and innovative product solutions. Help enterprises' operations and management to become digital and intelligent in an all-round way.
The shift from product-based ERP to ecological-based UF Business Innovation Platform BIP (Business Innovation Platform) deeply attracted Huansi Wisdom. In 2023, UFIDA further upgraded its ecosystem, adhering to the attitude of co-creation and sharing, continuously strengthening the support of digital intelligence base, leading the innovation of ecological models, and building an industrial ecosystem that is currently second to none in the field of enterprise services.
In Xiao Ruofa's view, the needs of enterprises in the era of digital intelligence vary widely, and the business scenarios are also completely different. This cannot be solved by the form flow and business optimization in the traditional sense of ERP in the past. Platformization is the optimal solution for enterprise digital intelligence upgrades.
By cooperating with partners with different capabilities, platform software can achieve simple and low-cost "expansion" and continuously launch more powerful intelligent functions and tools for specific scenarios, thus improving the digital level of the entire industry.
However, this does not mean that everyone can assume the important role of "centering". On the one hand, the investment funds and resources in the BIP platform are very large, and even large-scale independent software developers cannot afford it; on the other hand, the software companies building the platform should have the ability to cover thousands of industries. In other words, just having money is not enough.
Based on the above considerations, Xiao Ruofa believes that there are actually only a handful of companies that can play the role of platform in China. It can even be said that almost all eyes are focused on UFIDA, which has 35 years of enterprise service experience.
Drive data and wisdom, win-win cooperation
As the world's leading provider of enterprise digital intelligence software and services, UFIDA's digital intelligence strategy and platform evolution did not start in the near future, but can be traced back to nearly 10 years ago. At that time, UFIDA proposed "data-driven enterprise", which actually vaguely pointed out the trend and direction of modern enterprise development.
As far as my country's textile industry is concerned, small, medium and micro enterprises account for more than 90%. As market competition becomes increasingly fierce, these companies have also begun to pursue a shift from the original optimization of local functions to systemic business innovation at the product and business levels in terms of business management concepts.
Xiao Ruofa believes that one of the greatest values of UFIDA’s BIP platform is that it has no unattainable threshold. Due to the aggregation of various ecological partners, the UFIDA BIP platform can achieve precise allocation and efficient docking of resources, and its empowering value for small and medium-sized enterprises is particularly obvious.
"Although we officially signed the agreement in 2023, we and UF have often encountered each other before, and there are hundreds of cases of joint cooperation in the industry." Xiao Ruofa said that because of this, the two companies have made progress after cooperation. Quickly, Huansi & UFIDA joint solutions for the digital and intelligent transformation of the textile industry were launched.
By creating standardized applications in the textile industry, this solution provides digital and trusted manufacturing for factories in the textile industry chain, digitizes life cycle processes such as product design, production, testing and certification, management, circulation and post-service, and helps companies establish standard operations. , operations, processes, inspection processes, and complete the trustworthy data uploading of production, logistics, transactions and other processes to help enterprises reduce costs, increase efficiency and improve quality.
"Through the overall solution jointly created with UFIDA, Huansi Intelligence has effectively improved the integrity of the solution, and the improvements it has brought to customers are huge. We have greater confidence when we go out to promote our products." Xiao Ruofa said.
Not only that, there are many intelligent application scenarios on the UFIDA BIP platform. Based on its own understanding of the textile industry, Huansi Wisdom is also evaluating and considering these intelligent applications, hoping to effectively improve the development level of the textile industry.
In addition to joint innovation of product solutions, Huansi Wisdom and UFIDA will also conduct close and effective cooperation on the market side such as joint marketing and joint customer service. In fact, this is also one of the core ecological mechanisms of UFIDA BIP. A large number of partners A wide range of business opportunities and a large number of orders have been harvested from this, and the platform’s dividends far exceeded many people’s expectations.
Under the ecological strategy of "professionalization, industryization, and scale" and relying on the powerful vertical and horizontal integration capabilities of the BIP platform, UFIDA has joined hands with many industry segment partners to deliver digital intelligence capabilities to more front-line scenarios of production and operation. , enhance the core competitiveness of thousands of enterprises.
2024, born with the wisdom of numbers
Unlike "digital native" companies such as finance and telecommunications, the textile industry is labor-intensive, and there are obvious gaps in conceptual understanding, talent reserves, and material resources regarding digital transformation.
Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Commerce, and the State Administration for Market Regulation jointly issued the "Implementation Plan for Quality Improvement and Upgrading of the Textile Industry (2023-2025)" , which made clear requirements in terms of intelligent manufacturing, digitization, and networking. Support the textile industry to carry out pilot demonstrations for the integrated development of new generation information technology and manufacturing.
Undoubtedly, this round of national-level policy support will definitely bring about comprehensive improvements to China’s textile industry and enhance the profitability and development vitality of small, medium and micro enterprises in the industrial cluster. It will also benefit UFIDA BIP, as well as platforms like Huansi Wisdom Such industry ecological partners provide a broader space for development.
As we said before, since my country's textile industry has a high proportion of small, medium and micro enterprises, the development of clusters is essential. On the one hand, it can reduce vicious competition between enterprises, and on the other hand, it can achieve "group heating" .
Facing the cluster development of the textile industry, Huansi Wisdom is also thinking about how to carry out more in-depth cooperation with the UFIDA BIP platform to improve the overall digitalization of the industrial cluster. Xiao Ruofa's idea is to jointly launch digital tools for the textile industry in the SaaS model with UFIDA. This ready-to-use annual fee model will help the majority of small, medium and micro enterprises to achieve high-quality digital intelligence in specific application scenarios.
In the textile industry, from a piece of silk to a piece of cloth to ready-made clothes, and finally to the hands of consumers, it needs to pass through many upstream and downstream companies. Therefore, the leading companies in the textile industry will need a more refined, complete and solid supply chain. Solution, this is also an opportunity for UFIDA BIP platform and Huansi Wisdom.
"For giant companies, if they want to obtain higher profits or greater development in the future, two prerequisites are indispensable. One is a joint ecosystem , and the other is digital intelligence empowerment ." Xiao Ruofa said.
Another major layout of Huansi Wisdom in 2024 will definitely be overseas.
Xiao Ruofa said that due to the normal changes and transfers of the industrial chain, a large number of domestic textile OEM companies have moved to Southeast Asia. How to empower these enterprises is one of the propositions that Huansi Wisdom is currently thinking about.
In 2023, UFIDA upgraded its global business system from Globalization 1.0 to Globalization 2.0. UF hopes to achieve service coverage in more than 100 countries and regions within three years based on the UF BIP platform.
We noticed that at an important juncture in my country's industrial development, the two sides once again coincided with each other. It is believed that on the basis of previous joint innovation plans, UFIDA and Huansi Intelligence will face overseas, especially Southeast Asian textile enterprises' digital intelligence empowerment, and new results will soon emerge.
The digital transformation of the textile industry requires long-term precipitation and cannot be achieved overnight. Facing the future, Huansi Wisdom will continue to increase cooperation with UFIDA BIP, form greater synergy with governments, associations and enterprises, and effectively promote the digital transformation and high-quality development of the textile industry.
