• Behind the shortage of industrial software talents, it is difficult to train talents, poor “hematopoietic”, and low industry treatment
• Now many universities only teach the use of well-known foreign software operations, just like primary school students originally want to learn computing ability, but instead let them learn how to use calculators
• Industrial software manufacturers should cooperate with industrial enterprises to explore a set of standardized and procedure-oriented training mechanism, build industrial software training centers, and help cultivate composite talents and team building

PCI-5102 In the software industry, industrial software is a niche industry, but it is the brain and nerve of industrial manufacturing, which plays a key role in the industrial chain and is called the crown of the industrial field. High-end industrial software is the crown jewel.

A number of industry insiders said that China’s industrial software autonomy is low, lacking both a crown and a pearl. Behind this, is the severe reality of industrial software talent “cut off supply”. From a specific point of view, the training of industrial software talents in our country faces the bottleneck of difficulty, long cycle and low treatment.

PCI-5102 In June this year, the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the “Guide to the Construction of Characteristic Demonstration Software College (Trial)” (hereinafter referred to as the “Construction Guide”), focusing on the training of industrial software talents. Will the phenomenon of “cut off supply” of industrial software talents be alleviated?

Shortage of industrial software talents

The reporter learned that a domestic industrial software evaluation unit due to the increase in business, hoping to recruit 20 people, and finally came to interview only 3 people.

PCI-5102 The company’s recruitment problems reflect, to some extent, the talent dilemma facing the industrial software industry. According to the “Construction Guide”, the number of employees in China’s software and information technology service industry reached 6.73 million last year, an increase of 4.7% year-on-year, but there is still a large gap and structural contradictions are prominent. The shortage is particularly acute in two areas: critical basic software and large industrial software.

Industrial software includes R & D design class (EDA, CAD, CAE, etc.), production scheduling and process control class (MES, SCADA, etc.), business management class (ERP, SCM, HRM, etc.) three major areas, of which R & D design class is the core and key. Founder Securities research report shows that there are about 1,500 people engaged in electronic design automation (EDA) software research and development in China, and only about 300 people really serve local EDA research and development.

Industrial software research and development talent is extremely scarce, resulting in domestic industrial software is difficult to develop independently, foreign giants almost monopolize China’s industrial software market. According to the research evaluation of the Intelligent Research Institute, in China’s computer-aided design (CAD) software market, France’s Dassault, Germany’s Siemens, the United States PTC and the United States Autodesk company market share of more than 90%. In the CAE simulation software market, American ANSYS, ALTAIR, NASTRAN and other companies occupy more than 95% of the market share.
