In this transformation process, in which industries or areas does the industrial Internet land first?
XVR19 6U-VME-SBC “The industrial Internet must be the first to land in the field of energy, because energy is the most important factor of production in the industry, is the driving force of everything, and is also the most urgent problem for enterprises to solve.” An industry practitioner believes.
“I think we will go first in areas where we have the tools for digital transformation, such as enterprises with a smart hardware foundation. In addition, for example, in the textile industry, there are no leading institutions, which may be an opportunity for some startups.” Luo Zidan said.
XVR19 6U-VME-SBC Lei Xin believes that different landing scenarios can be divided according to “+ Internet” and “+ intelligence” : Internet technology changes the production relationship, giving priority to the decentralized discrete manufacturing industry, such as textiles, auto parts, etc., changing the space-time relationship, eliminating asymmetry, and shaping the leader; Intelligent technology changes productivity, giving priority to centralized process manufacturing, such as power and oil industries, improving production line efficiency and accelerating intelligence.
Lei Xin, who has invested in Helong optimization, said that through algorithms to help customers in steel, chemical and other industries control their core production process in real time – such as boiler combustion, reactor, drying line, etc., much higher than the master’s operating level, the actual energy saving efficiency of at least 3%-5%, the customer’s return on investment cycle within half a year. “The core consideration of investment in the industrial Internet field is to create value for users, change the industrial structure and improve efficiency.”
XVR19 6U-VME-SBC In addition, Lei Xin believes that from the energy efficiency optimization and predictive maintenance at the device level to the production line level of production scheduling and enterprise-level big data applications, as well as industrial control safety, equipment personnel emergency safety, etc., are also good concerns for investment institutions.
However, IT is worth noting that for some traditional enterprises, digital transformation also means no small determination and tradeoff, “enterprises are gradually increasing IT investment, when the economic situation is not good, they will give priority to cut the budget, which is related to the decision-making level of the enterprise itself, which is a more divisive point.” Luo Zidan said.
XVR19 6U-VME-SBC “We must first grasp one or two points to solve the general pain points of enterprises, to form profitability, the maturity of technology is developed in reality, and the field is honed.” “You can’t always practice dragon slaying,” people in the industry say.
But in any case, digital transformation has entered the deep water zone, Jiang Xin believes that “through business restructuring to achieve business value reconstruction.” (The author is Wang Dan, founder of Gaze Consulting, if you need to communicate with her, please contact Doodle Jun)
