Concept:
Consulting originally meant consulting, discussing and advising. In English, the corresponding "Consultation" or "Consult" also means consultation, consultation or consultant.
With the rapid development of information technology (including computer technology, communication technology and network technology) in recent years, the connotation and practical means of consultation have been greatly enriched.
People begin to re-understand consultation and emphasize its information characteristics in the original meaning of consultation. They believe that information characteristics are the most basic characteristics of consultation, and consultation cannot be separated from information. The process of consultation is essentially the process of information acquisition, processing and transmission. Therefore, "information consultation" is put forward.
It is a comprehensive service industry with intensive knowledge, high technology content and remarkable social benefits.
Development trend:
China's information consulting industry was gradually formed and developed after China's reform and opening up in the early 1980s. Its development has gone through the initial development stage in the early 1980s, the steady growth stage from the 1980s to the early 1990s, and the rapid development stage since the middle and late 1990s. Roughly go through three stages:
1, initial development stage:
In the early 1980s, the characteristics of information consultation at this stage were mainly reflected in preparing for the theory, methods and personnel training of decision-making consultation, in order to meet the growing demand for social consultation caused by the reform and opening-up policy, and to make progress in market development. The main force is the researchers of soft science, technology and management science in some scientific research institutions. Information consulting institutions are basically affiliated to a certain department, not independent institutions.
With the further development of society, people are more and more aware of the importance of scientific and democratic decision-making. Therefore, the policy research office has been further expanded. Most Party committees and governments at all levels in the State Council have established policy research institutions or research institutions, and a large number of soft science research institutions have been separated from some policy research departments.
They are not only the think tanks of party and government departments at all levels, but also the main comprehensive consulting and research institutions in China. During this period, the system of information consulting industry was single, the economy and operability of consulting activities were not obvious, and the consulting market developed slowly.
2. Steady growth stage:
From the mid-1980s to the early 1990s, the information consulting industry in China was in a difficult rising stage.
During this period, with the deepening of reform and opening up, the demand for consultation is increasing day by day, and all systems, departments and enterprises are in great need of scientific schemes and methods for scientific and technological and economic development through information consultation. Many information consulting institutions have been established in this form, and some of them have become independent economic entities.
At the same time, some central ministries and commissions and some provinces and cities have established independent institutions engaged in macro-decision-making or policy research, such as system science, which has developed very rapidly. By the end of 1990, the number of comprehensive consulting institutions in China had increased from 420 at the end of 1985 to more than 900, with about 30,000 employees.
3. Rapid development stage:
After 1990s, especially in June 65438+June 65438+June 6992, the Central Committee and the State Council listed the information consulting industry as one of the key points in the Decision on Accelerating the Development of the Tertiary Industry. The government information system has initially formed a national framework.
The State Council has successively approved the construction of more than a dozen national information systems in economy, finance, railways, central office, statistics, finance and taxation, customs, meteorology, etc., and 47 ministries, commissions (bureaus) and head offices have successively established information institutions;
The national economic information system led by the State Planning Commission and the National Information Center has formed a four-level information system covering 30 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), 280 central cities and 1.500 counties. The information consulting industry is booming, with about 1.7 million information consulting enterprises and 1.3 million employees.
