Technology empowerment logistics, how to interpret the supply chain


In recent years, under the impact of DT, CLO, IoT and AI, the logistics industry has continuously promoted the integration between emerging technologies and logistics industry, and further promoted the industry transformation, intelligent logistics equipment and intelligent transportation capacity, logistics supply and demand matching platform, cross-border Enterprises and other industries have entered the fast lane of development, and the logistics industry is transforming and upgrading to smart logistics and smart supply chains. In the new economy and the new normal, capital, information and policy dividends are also shifting to the two major development directions of logistics technology and supply chain.

At the same time, under the leadership of science and technology, cross-border integration, cross-industry ecological chain, industry competition and ecology have gradually become the new normal of development in various industries. Science and technology promote logistics and the coordinated development of upstream and downstream industries, prompting enterprises to form a cross-industry ecological chain, and the logistics industry competition to re-construct new patterns and new formats. And technological innovation is triggering a new round of logistics competition, the new logistics competition is the ability to cross-border integration and big data algorithms. In the future, technology will promote the further differentiation and reconstruction of China's logistics industry.

With the continuous deepening of supply-side reform, 2017-2018, “Notice on the Construction of Supply Chain System”, “Guiding Opinions on Actively Promoting Supply Chain Innovation and Application”, “Pilot on Supply Chain Innovation and Application” The introduction of a number of policies, such as the “Notice”, accelerated the construction of the supply chain system and raised the supply chain innovation and application into a national strategy.

As the core competitiveness of future enterprises, supply chain management is gradually moving to the supply chain management industry. In the future, enterprises will transform into supply chain services. The single-bearing business system will gradually disappear, and the development of its technology, finance, commerce, logistics and other businesses will gradually diversify.


The advantages of technology and talent are difficult to replicate. If it is a single service, it only provides customs clearance, logistics, or only a certain part of the service. This kind of business is relatively single and too easy to be copied.

Although there are all kinds of difficulties and problems, the market demand for supply chain services has been growing. We can find that when many companies pursue their core value and continue to grow, if their supply chain system can not meet the development needs, it will seek outsourcing, which is the business opportunity of supply chain services.

The development of the supply chain also has a good development opportunity. The supply chain has become the starting point for supply-side reforms and has risen to the national strategic level. In particular, President Xi mentioned in the speech that the supply chain should be raised to the national level. Strategic focus.

Where is our supply chain going? From Sanda to Focus, we have achieved the industry from a single customer, how to achieve the industry from the industry, and then we have achieved the platform. From the platform to the ecological chain, we are the future direction of the supply chain.

The so-called ups and downs are in the industrial chain, and the positioning of the company is improved. In the era of informationization, in the era of overcapacity, the demand for supply chain value and supply chain control is actually even greater. Therefore, in many industries, you will see that they regard the supply chain as the development strategy of the enterprise, and the quality of the supply chain determines the survival of their enterprises. So first of all, the degree of emphasis is on the extension.

Under the touch, it touches the consumer. The supply chain has reached out to sales and reached consumers. More and more brands are aware of the importance of this piece. They need to reach consumers to get a lot of data, to know consumer trends earlier and to do it. Out-of-demand production, omni-channel management, and full life management appeals. Therefore, the current touch is also a very obvious development trend.

"Short chain" is divided into three situations:

1. Directly operated, always on the general form: directly spread to various provinces, cities and counties, directly to the store.

2, omni-channel, online and offline performance: With the increase of channels, orders are becoming more and more fragmented, experience requirements, quality requirements, etc., as well as supply chain inventory management requirements, inventory a shipment, all Channel, B2B, B2C, B2B2C integration, this is a short chain.

3, pre-inventory: that is, the best-selling things, through the big data forecasting ability to put some of the customer's needs in advance to the nearest place.

At the same time, Zhang Genyun believes that in view of the development trend of the supply chain and the understanding of logistics, the new logistics has three very obvious development patterns, trends and trends: the first, the national efficient delivery network; the second, comprehensive Sexual integration service; third, digital intelligent management platform.

Under the current macro environment, in fact, every "four streams" should change. First of all, the business flow will be changed from the production consignment to the online order, and this is a change. In terms of logistics, before the more is dedicated logistics, in the future, the Internet will be transformed through the Internet to manage the order and manage the order to achieve a unified warehouse. In the flow of funds, we have just changed from the upstream and downstream investment to the overall risk control of the data to make the development of the entire supply chain finance. In the information flow, the original is mainly local information management, and the future must be to achieve the interconnection of all information.

Referring to the future direction of supply chain investment, the direction of supply chain investment will continue to focus on the innovative business model to achieve the supply of goods. There are three modes: the first is product innovation; the second is customer innovation; the third is channel Innovation.

Today's digital era must open up the industry upstream and downstream. This time, it is not the individual combat, but the entire industrial chain from upstream to downstream of the integrated industry. Enterprises in the industrial chain are in the supply chain. Without the supply chain, there is no way to have an advantage in this industry competition. The essential goal of your supply chain is to value, so this value is the soul of your industrial supply chain.

The enterprise's grasp of the industrial chain is in the supply chain, which is the advantage of industrial competition.

In response to the advanced methodology of the supply chain, today's digital era must open up the industry upstream and downstream. This time, it is not the individual combat, but the entire industry chain from upstream to downstream of the integrated industry. Enterprises in the industrial chain are in the supply chain. Without the supply chain, there is no way to have an advantage in this industry competition. The essential goal of your supply chain is to value, so this value is the soul of your industrial supply chain.


Compared with the typical chain master priority in the past, the chain master value is maximized. Today's digital age is not the same. Although it still talks about the super-chain owner, this chain owner is no longer an individual priority, but a global priority. It is today's digital supply chain, and the digital supply chain must be an overall synergy and global optimization. It is not a singular optimization, not a Wal-Mart, or Apple singularity, but the entire chain group optimization, the overall operation, which is different today to see the digital chain.

Whether it is online development or offline development, the core behind it is the supply chain. With the development of smart logistics such as big data, cloud computing, mobile Internet, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, etc., the traditional supply chain will inevitably develop towards the smart supply chain. The single supply chain will also be replaced by chain optimization and overall operations.
