Jinjiang Textile Enterprises Strengthen Information Management

　 Recently, Jinjiang Huayu Weaving Co., Ltd. has frequently seen many software technology companies in the province. "Now that enterprises should step into information management gradually, we are looking for excellent partners to help build an information system." Yan Wenming, vice general manager of Huayu, told reporters that Huayu's goal is not only to build a website, but also to establish a perfect information system within the company.

Reporters learned from a number of software technology companies in Jinjiang. Since this year, they have been in close contact with a number of medium-sized textile enterprises in Jinjiang. "It seems like we are all thinking of us." Ceng Zhichang, director of Jinjiang Zhengyang software, excitedly said, "this year, many textile enterprises began to strengthen information management. We are exposed to many new local customers, and have the need to expand the application of software, and are interested in website construction and e-commerce.

This argument was confirmed in interviews with reporters. The dragon family enterprises began to launch new information software, and the Evergreen Group is also preparing to expand the original software information module. These medium-sized traditional textile enterprises are also keeping up with the information age and testing water information management.

Status quo: increasing Promotion of information technology Investment

"Information management construction we have been doing. The workshop was first implemented. The company introduced automatic dyeing and printing equipment last year. The entire production process is controlled by computers and fully automated. Quanzhou Liang Hing printing and dyeing flocking Co., Ltd. production department responsible person said. In the company's production workshop, employees are scarce, mainly responsible for the operation of machines, and information management has been introduced into production systems.

Like prosperity, most textile enterprises in Quanzhou began to focus on information technology since last year. Last year, the Textile Industry Association issued the outline for the development of scientific and technological progress in the textile industry, and put forward the need to focus on the development of information technology. Last month, the China Textile Industry Association announced the "outline of the scientific and technological progress of the textile industry" in 12th Five-Year. The application of information technology transformation to upgrade the textile industry is once again highlighted.

This also allows more textile enterprises to pay attention to information construction again. Spinning enterprises We have begun to prepare for further investment and establish a system of information system.

"A few years ago, we embarked on the ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) project. But mainly in finance and warehousing, other areas have not yet started. Zhang Yao, director of research and development of Evergreen Group, told reporters that ERP involves many modules, including R & D management system, administrative management system, marketing management system, procurement management system, fabric management system, excipient management system, product management system, production and outsourcing management system, financial settlement system, report management system, quality management system, user management system, etc. "After summing up experience, next year, the company plans to increase investment and expand information technology in other systems."

Among the textile enterprises visited by reporters, most enterprises are in good condition. Weaving dyeing Similar to the Evergreen Group, the use of ERP is mostly limited to production and financial systems. "Management system information" has been included in next year's key tasks.

Obstacles: talent capital can not keep up.

For information management, many textile enterprises, besides paying attention to information dynamics, are more eager to seek talents. It is understood that the China Textile Industry Association has investigated the application of electronic information technology in more than 1000 textile enterprises. IT personnel accounted for less than 1% of the employees interviewed, and the lack of professionals in enterprise informatization.

"Software needs to be used and electronic commerce to be done. Talents are needed." Huang Bo, marketing director of Huayu weaving, said, "software is a big project, and no professional person can operate it well. After that, all employees need to retrain the software and consume a lot."

In the operation of ERP project, we also feel deeply that professionals are indispensable. "Enterprises need to be equipped with corresponding professionals at all locations, coupled with the improvement of the data level of the whole enterprise, so as to provide accurate and timely data, so that information management can truly be implemented." Zhang Yao said that only a complete layout can have a better information level. "At present, the operation is slow, and the main problem is staffing."

Huang said that Huayu is now embarking on the construction of the website. This small project has already cost a lot of energy and requires professionals to build and maintain. In the future, if we want to establish a perfect information system, talents will become the most troublesome problem. "A series of software for informatization should be started, and the soft power of enterprises must keep pace with them. At present, most textile enterprises in Quanzhou lack professional talents in information management.

In addition to talents, "big cost of Engineering" is also a great pressure for most spinning enterprises.

"From software development to landing, the cost is less than hundreds of thousands, and several million, not a small number." Zhang Tan, deputy general manager of the dragon family enterprise, said, "although there are some government related subsidies, software development can rely on people outside, and enterprises need to carry out training for all staff if they want to really land. This is a big project."

Key: instilling "information" concept

"Enterprise informatization is not merely a technical issue, it involves every aspect of the enterprise." "The process of informatization is the process of changing from rule by man to rule by law," said Lin, an insider. The reorganization of enterprise organization framework and the adjustment of process mean the redistribution of power and interests. To strengthen management and control, there are bound to be various new contradictions.

In the interview, many enterprises have indicated that the information consciousness of owners is very important. "If there is no firm boss's firm confidence and practice, it is hard to promote. Enterprise bosses attach great importance to, direct decision-making, propaganda, promotion and organization implementation, which is very important for enterprise informatization construction.

"The owners of Jinjiang textile enterprises are very enterprising in production and marketing, and the understanding of informatization may be missing." Mr. Lin said that even if we realize the importance of information, it is not easy to carry out the whole process of implementation. "This is a relatively long process. The initial adaptation stage may not show the superiority of some software. Only after the system is trained and trained, can this information efficient and fast play a real role, so it is a protracted war."

Case study

Feng Zhu: ERP system saves more than 200 million {page_break}
 

Over the past two years, influenced by many factors, the profits of the textile industry have not been satisfactory, and the Fujian Feng Bamboo textile Polytron Technologies Inc has gone against the tide and become a profitable company every year. The information system played an irreplaceable role in the remarkable achievement of Phoenix Bamboo textile.

In 2005, Phoenix Bamboo launched the ERP project, becoming one of the earliest enterprises to realize information management in Quanzhou, and also the first person to eat ERP crab in China's textile industry. In order to make the project successful, Feng Zhu textile chose the "ERP 500" behind the world's top management, the German SAP company provided the ERP system, and chose the "world information industry giant" Hewlett-Packard Co to be the implementation partner of the project.

At that time, the ERP system, especially the advanced SAP system, was equivalent to high protein for Jinjiang enterprises. Feng Bamboo was the first to eat crabs, but he suffered indigestion. As the system went on line, one after another, Feng Zhu textile started to run. Because the system did not go through, it would not be able to start and order if it did not go through.

At the crucial moment, Chen Chengqing, chairman of Feng Zhu textile, decided to endure the pain and move forward, and set up the "110 emergency detachment", which concentrated the best people in the company to the ERP project team and worked day and night.

After several labor pains, ERP gradually made the content. Now, ERP of phoenix bamboo has basically completed the data of the entire enterprise, and what data can be transferred at any time. "Even if I want a machine to run data at a certain time, it can be adjusted." Feng Zhu people said proudly.

In this process, Feng Bamboo gradually realized that ERP needs to continue to go along with a very good management idea in order to achieve the role of informatization. Although the process of implementing ERP is painful, the process of digesting ERP is difficult, but now Feng Bamboo is inseparable from ERP.

　　 Editor's note: with the help of ERP system, the foreign trade delivery time of Phoenix Bamboo textile has been shortened by 20%, saving office expenses by 700 thousand per year, artificial wages 480 thousand, and the interest cost of inventory funds being occupied by 1 million 300 thousand.
