Digital observation network: What kind of enterprise is Haobao Technology and what is its core competitiveness?

CAI Jianghong: Haobao Company was founded in 2010, is a focus on thermal equipment of high-tech enterprises, Shenzhen specialized in special new enterprises. The company's main products are three categories: first, new energy baking and drying equipment, lithium battery vacuum drying line, high vacuum oven, cell preheating tunnel furnace, etc.; The second is SMT welding equipment, including lead-free nitrogen reflow furnace, vacuum reflow furnace, semiconductor reflow welding, selective wave soldering, etc. The third is curing equipment, including vertical curing furnace, hundred-grade & thousand-grade clean vertical furnace, IGBT module vertical curing furnace, Mini LED package curing furnace, infrared curing furnace, etc.

Haobao has been focusing on equipment manufacturing in the field of thermal engineering for 13 years, and currently has more than 400 employees, of which R&D technicians account for 1/4; It has applied for more than 50 patents, owns a 30,000 square meters factory in Shenzhen, and has established marketing and service outlets in more than 40 countries and regions around the world, with an annual output of 1,800 sets of equipment and nearly 4,000 customers.

Digital Watch: More and more enterprises are accelerating their digital transformation. What are the initiatives and achievements of Haobao Technology in digital transformation?

CAI Jianghong: As for digital transformation, we started to use ERP in 2016 and are still using it now. During the epidemic in 2020, we gradually developed the concept of digitalization based on the Dingding platform, and successively carried out digital transformation in business management, after-sales service, skills training, production management, OA and other aspects to achieve paperless office. Especially in the cross-departmental and cross-regional aspects to achieve efficient collaborative work, in terms of cost reduction and efficiency achieved a very obvious effect, such as: Teambition, which is a project management software, makes each order become a project to do, forms the task of the project into a Kanboard, reasonably allocates staff, and automatically generates reports, which can multi-level project view, meet the management perspective of different roles in the company, and solve the situation of opaque production schedule before. Finally, after many projects were carried out and filed, a large amount of project experience was accumulated, which greatly standardized the SOP standard process of the company's project production and improved the company's management level.

On the other hand is the OA system, through the establishment of information integration platform, in the work efficiency, information flow, workflow, collaborative office has a great improvement, paperless office, reduce labor costs, save expenses, coupled with work process automation, improve efficiency.

Digital Observation network: In the process of Haobao's digital transformation, what do you think are the difficulties? How was it solved?

CAI Jianghong: There are three main difficulties. The first is technological innovation and ideological change. In the digital era, enterprises should dare to challenge, create, and transform, not relying on a certain system can be armed to the teeth, but composed of multiple systems, to find a suitable route for their own, hierarchical sorting, to find the best solution, prioritize the most important, weakest, and most headache links for digital reform, and then the company from top to bottom. To change our thinking, we must accept this fact, carry out a modern management model, take the initiative to embrace digitalization, and those who do not want to turn, dare not turn, and will not turn will eventually be eliminated by the market.

The second is the lack of talents, training talents. The company is a machinery manufacturing enterprise, with the increasing popularity of digitalization, the demand for this aspect of the enterprise has become an explosive growth trend, and digitalization is a sustainable development, now lack of talent, lack of planning, lack of equipment and effective incentive assessment system, digital transformation is a long-term plan, need top-level design and strategic planning, not a simple IT upgrade. IT is the combination of IT and DT, to use new technology to change the traditional technology, at present, we hire professional digital companies and digital experts to give the company guidance, accurate pulse, the implementation of a multi-policy, synchronous to cope with this stage.

The third is infrastructure and capital investment: Digital transformation is a big project, the early infrastructure, the need for a lot of capital investment, but also continue to upgrade the system, maintenance equipment, personnel training, these investments are relatively large, especially like the current overall market economic recession, the urgency of the digital transformation of the situation, it is also a relatively large pressure for enterprises. Therefore, some of our systems are based on other platforms, with the help of Dingding, Dingjie, so as to reduce the burden of enterprises.

Digital Observer Network: In what aspects will the company continue to deepen its digital transformation in the future?

CAI Jianghong: On the road of digital transformation, the company's idea is unswerving and will not waver, we will continue to reform the difficulties and pain points encountered in the transformation, to achieve a real sense of intelligent intelligent manufacturing in the manufacturing, in the cross-department, cross-regional collaborative office to improve a step, in the information flow of constant iteration update, precipitation data, to create their own database, In order to continuously optimize the operation and service strategy, better improve the relationship between customers and internal resources automatically matching, so as to improve quality and efficiency, create more agile and high-quality services for customers, provide more powerful platforms for employees to play, and contribute ideas for promoting the digital transformation of society.
