Recently, Wuhan has fully launched a new round of technological transformation action plan for industrial enterprises, aiming to achieve comprehensive consulting and diagnostics for smart transformation of over 2,000 scale industrial enterprises within three years. Currently, the first batch of 158 industrial enterprises has started free consulting and diagnostics for smart transformation technology. Getech, as one of the first five national top industrial smart transformation service providers on the platform, will visit enterprises to provide free consulting and diagnostics for smart transformation, helping Wuhan advance a new round of high-level enterprise technological upgrades.

Accelerating Smart Transformation to Seize Opportunities in the New Industrial Revolution

Why implement smart transformation?

For a long time, industry has been a strong pillar of Wuhan. As early as 70 years ago, at the beginning of Wuhan's liberation, the first meeting of the Wuhan Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to build Wuhan into a new industrial city. From the national "First Five-Year Plan" to being a pilot city for industrial growth stabilization and transformation, Wuhan has consistently adhered to the core urban development strategy of "industry establishing the city," driven by a series of national strategies. From state-owned enterprises like Wuhan Iron and Steel, Wuhan Boiler, and Wuhan Heavy Machinery to national manufacturing projects such as the National Memory Base, industry has been the engine driving Wuhan's economy from a billion-yuan output at liberation to today's nearly two trillion yuan.

Currently, the wave of a new technological revolution and industrial transformation is surging, presenting both opportunities and challenges.

Wuhan's first-quarter economic data this year shows an exciting 8.4% GDP growth, with industrial added value of scale enterprises increasing by 9.8%. However, the automotive manufacturing industry, long the top sector in Wuhan, has declined. There is an urgent need to accelerate the transformation and upgrading of the automotive industry, optimize the industrial structure, and foster emerging industries to support high-quality urban development.

The deep integration of new-generation artificial intelligence technology with advanced manufacturing technology has formed next-generation smart manufacturing technology, becoming the core driver of the new industrial revolution. As a key national industrial base, Wuhan needs to introduce and cultivate industrial increments while accelerating the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries.

Earlier, Wuhan held its second striving and surpassing exchange meeting this year, prioritizing "guiding traditional industries to accelerate transformation and upgrading" in second-quarter economic work. The meeting clearly stated, "We must fully promote high-quality manufacturing development, adhere to 'one enterprise, one policy,' guide traditional industries to accelerate transformation, strengthen emerging industries, and promote the integration of industrialization and informatization, manufacturing and services."

Releasing Market Momentum, Promoting Smart Transformation with 'One Enterprise, One Policy'

How should Wuhan promote industrial smart transformation?

Currently, smart technology is comprehensively reshaping production and lifestyles, particularly revolutionizing production methods. Smart transformation has become the main direction for global manufacturing technological upgrades, with countries successively introducing policies to promote industrial smart development.

As a key industrial base in China, Wuhan has a relatively complete industrial system and a strong industrial foundation. However, this also means a large number of industrial enterprises require smart transformation, with urgent tasks.

A relevant official from the Wuhan Economic and Information Bureau stated that since each industrial enterprise's product lines and management systems vary greatly, smart transformation must be highly personalized, requiring "one-on-one" tailored services. It is essential to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of service agencies and industrial enterprises, allowing the market to play a leading role in resource allocation. The government should focus more resources on guiding and serving industrial enterprises in smart transformation.

Dr. Li Nan from TCL Group's Getech Technology Co., Ltd. said that as an inland city, Wuhan's enterprises have a significant gap in understanding and implementing smart transformation compared to coastal areas. Even small factories in coastal areas often have dedicated "smart transformation" teams led by chairpersons or general managers, which is rare in Wuhan.

Currently, many industrial enterprises in Wuhan are still观望 about smart transformation, hesitating whether to upgrade. Dr. Li Nan said it is understandable that Wuhan enterprises have concerns about investing in smart transformation. The initial investment is large, the cycle is relatively long, and the process is complex, involving not only hardware upgrades but also changes in production and management models, which is "like a major surgery" for enterprises.

The market's "bottlenecks" are precisely where the government should focus its efforts. Based on preliminary research and analysis, the Wuhan Economic and Information Bureau decided to build a "Consulting and Diagnostics Platform for Industrial Enterprise Smart Transformation" as a breakthrough.

Simply put, the government builds a platform, introduces top national smart transformation service providers to offer free on-site consulting and diagnostics for Wuhan's industrial enterprises. Once enterprises approve the plans and initiate smart transformation projects, the government rewards service providers based on the enterprises' technological transformation investment.

Selecting National Top Smart Transformation Service Providers

After screening, Getech and four other top national industrial smart transformation service providers have joined the platform. These agencies have extensive experience in national industrial enterprise smart transformation and will diagnose the first batch of 158 industrial enterprises in Wuhan this year, using scientific and systematic methods to help enterprises plan their development directions and technical routes at different stages.

Getech is an innovative technology company incubated by TCL Group, gathering experts in cloud computing, big data, IoT, AI, and professionals with experience in international top smart manufacturing production lines. Leveraging TCL's nearly 40 years of manufacturing and industrial cluster service experience, Getech serves industrial clusters covering semiconductors, multimedia, communications, home appliances, and both discrete and continuous production models.

The team has rich experience in AI, big data, cloud computing, and other cutting-edge technologies, providing scenario-based smart manufacturing consulting and solutions to help manufacturing digitalize and upgrade, achieve极致 efficiency and cost reduction, and support China's manufacturing transformation and high-quality development.

Getech has provided smart manufacturing services to companies like CSOT, creating several national smart manufacturing demonstration projects and successfully implementing industrial internet platforms. The platform supports various industrial applications, including real-time production monitoring, equipment management optimization, predictive maintenance, multi-factor big data analysis, virtual metrology, and product quality inspection, bringing持续可观的经济收益 to enterprises.

Getech acts as both a promoter and enabler of smart transformation in Wuhan, helping enterprises understand the role of smart transformation, providing solutions, and facilitating implementation to enhance production efficiency and rapidly improve overall industrial core competitiveness.
