Product informatization. Product informatization should make good use of two technologies. One is to use digital technology to increase the functions of traditional products and increase the added value of products. For example, the former analog mobile phone and the current digital mobile phone can not be mentioned in the same breath in terms of confidentiality and performance, and digital control technology has had several influences on the value-added of machine tools; Secondly, using network technology, the network refrigerator is controlled by the network management center, which can inform users when they need to buy new food, thus generating new added value. The quality of products has not changed much, the biggest difference is that the added value of products has been improved through service;
Design informatization. That is, the informationization of product design and process design. At present, computer-aided design (CAD) system is widely used, and design informatization also includes computer-aided process planning (CAPP) system, computer-aided assembly process planning (CAAP) system, computer-aided engineering analysis (CAE) system, computer-aided testing system, networked computer-aided development environment, secondary development and application of DFX system oriented to product life cycle activities, product modeling, model base management and model verification.
Informatization of production process. That is, the application of automation technology in the production process, using automation and intelligent means to solve complex problems in the processing process, and improve the quality, accuracy and large-scale manufacturing level of production. The main applications include the application of numerical control equipment, the application of computer automatic control system in the production process, the automatic collection of production data, the automatic control of production equipment, the automatic detection of products and the automatic coverage of production.
Enterprise management informatization. Enterprises improve the level of decision-making management through the integration of management information systems. The main application levels include enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, supply chain management (SCM) system, customer relationship management (CRM) system and decision support system (DSS).
Informatization of market operation. Through the implementation of e-commerce, it can greatly save operating costs, improve the market competitiveness of products and improve economic benefits.
Characteristics of enterprise informatization
Enterprise informatization is a dynamic development process, mainly manifested in the following seven characteristics:
Essential characteristics of enterprise informatization. The core business, leading process and personnel of "informatization" enterprises. Any enterprise, whether it is a resource-based enterprise, a commercial enterprise or a financial, manufacturing or social intermediary institution, as long as it is an enterprise, it must have its unique main business, that is, core business, and its operation process is the dominant process of the enterprise and the key object of enterprise information transformation. At the same time, informatization is also a process of "transforming" people. Employees at all levels of enterprises should fully participate in the process of informatization construction psychologically and practically, and become the leading force of informatization. Of course, this also needs the active drive and guidance of the "number one project".
Morphological characteristics of enterprise informatization. At the three levels of enterprise production, management and operation, computers are widely used in product design, process control and parts processing, transaction processing, supply chain management and decision support, so as to realize the comprehensive automation of enterprise management such as design automation, production automation, office automation, decision support automation and e-commerce;
Process characteristics of enterprise informatization. The development process of enterprise informatization from primary, intermediate to advanced is characterized by gradual improvement from stand-alone application, comprehensive application and network application; The continuous integration of computer networking, departmental networking, enterprise networking and industrial chain networking at the grass-roots team level has the characteristics of sustained and sustainable development.
Stage characteristics of enterprise informatization. Due to the endless development of information technology and the changes of information infrastructure, economy and market environment, enterprise informatization has no ultimate goal. The implementation of enterprise informatization is all-round, and enterprises will promote enterprise informatization in different levels and stages around their own needs to improve the utilization rate of information technology. Therefore, the construction and investment of enterprise informatization can not be one-off, it has the characteristics of continuous stages.
The hidden benefits of enterprise informatization. The enterprise's promotion of informatization is different from the technical transformation of products in the past, and its benefit concept is completely different. The latter is to improve the quality and increase the output through the technical transformation of the product production line, which is unilateral and the benefits are easy to show; The former is the application of information technology to deeply develop and widely use the information resources of enterprises, and improve the production capacity and management level of enterprises as a whole. Its benefits are various, and it is difficult to give an accurate evaluation in a quantitative way due to the limitation of management level at this stage.
Intrinsic correlation characteristics of enterprise informatization. Enterprise informatization depends on technological innovation, but also on institutional innovation. Maintain the mutual promotion and organic integration of technological innovation and institutional innovation, implement enterprise reform and business process reorganization, flatten organizational structure, establish modern enterprise system, and create conditions for the deep application of information technology from the system.
External relevance characteristics of enterprise informatization. Enterprise informatization depends on the formation of a good environment for national economy and social informatization, the continuous progress of social information network and the gradual improvement of the informatization level of upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain where the enterprise is located.
