Yunnan Zhongyan: dare to be the first, open industry localization to replace the first.

 

Customer Overview

 

In October 2003, in accordance with the requirements of the industrial and commercial management system reform of provincial tobacco institutions of the State Tobacco Monopoly Bureau, Yunnan Tobacco was divided into Yunnan China Tobacco Industry Company and Yunnan Tobacco Monopoly Bureau (company). Yunnan China Tobacco Industry Company was restructured and renamed Yunnan China Tobacco Industry Co., Ltd. on January 27, 2011. The company integrates cigarette production and sales, supporting supply of tobacco materials, scientific research, and diversified operations. The company has Hongta Tobacco (Group) Co., Ltd. and Hongyun Honghe Tobacco (Group) Co., Ltd., which are the top two in the industry in terms of cigarette output. The liability company is currently the largest provincial-level Chinese tobacco company in the country in terms of cigarette production and sales. It ranks first in the industry in terms of total cigarette production and sales, total tax and profit, first-class tobacco production and sales, national market coverage, international market sales, and non-tobacco industry.

 

Since its establishment, the company has always adhered to and implemented the development strategy of "making refined and better brands, bigger and stronger enterprises", vigorously promoted the strategic reorganization of cigarette industrial enterprises inside and outside the province, continuously promoted brand development and market expansion, and gradually moved towards development and growth. Based on the new development stage, focusing on the high-quality development of Yunnan China Tobacco, deepen the concept of digital transformation, promote the deep integration of digital economy and real economy, take data as the drive, promote the transformation and development of business digitization, production intelligence and service network, use data to carry out intelligent auxiliary decision-making, promote the optimal allocation of factor resources, enhance the endogenous power and vitality of enterprises, and promote the reengineering and optimization of industrial chain and value chain.

 

Focusing on the goal of high-quality development of Yunnan China Tobacco, following the principle of "one game of chess and integration", a unified information platform suitable for Yunnan China Tobacco's operation management and control, meeting business needs, safe and efficient, and economic control of operation and maintenance is constructed, so that the strategic management idea of the enterprise can be implemented. With the goal of integrating "logistics, capital flow and information flow", Yunnan China Tobacco's information islands at all management levels can be opened to achieve a unified management and management application mode, the demand for the construction of a unified information system for business data integration has become an important issue on the road of digital transformation of Yunnan China Tobacco.

 

Business challenges

 

According to the needs of different stages of development, Yunnan China Tobacco Headquarters and the two groups have successively built three sets of ERP systems, effectively supporting the overall operation and management of the company and the group. However, due to the large construction time span, the three ERP systems have not been constructed as planned, and the application synergy effect is poor. The core business lacks unified process control, and the system cannot support management coordination and business linkage in a timely and effective manner. Core technologies and intellectual property rights cannot be controlled independently. The system transformation cost is high, the development cycle is long, and the growth of software and hardware costs is difficult to control.

 

Multiple sets of ERP decentralized construction, resulting in complex architecture, difficult to expand

 

The ERP systems of various units under the jurisdiction of Yunnan Zhongyan are decentralized. Although all business applications from basic master data to sales, production, procurement, finance, cost, etc. have been covered, each ERP system is deployed independently. One business application requires multiple systems to interact. The interaction between each ERP and multiple information systems is realized by a large number of system interfaces, with the number of interfaces approaching 3000, complex systems and integrated architectures pose huge challenges to business development and control, inter-organizational transactions and settlements.

 

Strong dependence on foreign software and hardware products, weak independent controllability, high operation and maintenance costs

 

Today's world is in a century of great changes. A new round of global scientific and technological revolution represented by information technology is gestating and emerging, which is profoundly affecting the world's economic and political development pattern. Yunnan Zhongyan deeply understands that the national strategy requires its own core technology, deeply implements the national credit creation strategy and industry credit creation requirements, inherits the "pioneering spirit of opening the sky to the ground and daring to be the first", Through its own technology, independent innovation, explore the path of independent innovation and self-reliance. In addition, foreign ERP software is not very friendly to domestic users, complex operation, ease of use is not strong, acquisition costs and maintenance costs are high, software iteration speed is slow, it is difficult to meet the rapid development of domestic enterprises business needs.

 

Build a three-stream integrated, fully shared intelligent pre-financial integration platform.

 

The advent of the digital age has subverted the business model of traditional industries, and data has become a new factor of production. Combining digital technology with traditional industries and finally forming the competitiveness of digital assets to build a digital world is an inevitable trend in the development of the industry. In the past, the business and finance of China Tobacco in Yunnan showed different degrees of management dispersion, organization dispersion, data dispersion, system dispersion and other problems, lack of professional management, the overall control of the group is weak. In order to support the digital transformation of China Tobacco Yunnan, it is necessary to use intelligent technology to realize the reconstruction of management mode and realize value creation through business and financial transformation.

 

Solution

 

Three streams in one, up and down through, left and right coordination

 

Since 2004 till now, China Tobacco Yunnan has successively gone through aggregation, integration, integration, two unifications and two integrations, and realized the breakthrough from "form dispersion" to "form aggregation". However, there is a problem of "form dispersion" in its business operation, and there is no integration and unification of vertical management, cross-unit, cross-department and cross-field vertical and horizontal business, the construction of a unified information platform involving multiple business lines such as finance, research and development, manufacturing, marketing, supply chain and warehousing logistics is the cornerstone of the company's digital transformation and the platform guarantee for efficient operation and sustainable competitive advantage.

 

Yunnan tobacco digital transformation of the overall plan:

 

 

The focus of the first phase of the implementation of the application:

 

Achieve a high degree of pre-business financial unity, laying a solid foundation for the company's digital transformation.

 

With unified standards, unified platforms, and unified processes as the overall construction goals of the project, Yunnan China Tobacco will build a unified information platform involving multiple business lines such as finance, research and development, procurement, manufacturing, marketing, and logistics and transportation to achieve efficient operation of the company. Ensure sustainable competitive advantages and lay a solid foundation for the company's digital transformation.

 

Realize the tracking of the whole business process and improve the efficient coordination of cross-organizational business.

 

Yunnan China Tobacco has a huge organizational structure. In the past, most of the business transactions between departments mainly relied on telephone communication, especially the coordination efficiency between cross-organizations was relatively low. The information island brought about problems such as asynchronous information and poor process connection, which deeply affected the business development of Yunnan China Tobacco. Through the implementation of a unified information platform (ERP system), Yunnan Zhongyan has realized the business link connection from sales forecast, delivery plan, sales order, internal allocation, production warehousing, purchase supply, financial collection and payment and freight settlement, improved the standardization of business, realized the complete closed loop of management, made the data more real-time and accurate, eliminated the management vacuum, and implemented the "net management" measures.

 

Innovative application of inter-organizational settlement to improve company profitability

 

In the past, under the framework of several sets of ERP systems in Yunnan Zhongyan, the purchasing and sales business transactions between various groups were communicated offline, and each set of systems made accounts independently, which did not meet the business development needs of the company's unified control and integration of resources. Through the implementation of a unified information platform (ERP system), the company's unified control mode of "centralized settlement to the outside and coordination of collection and payment to the inside" was realized, enhance procurement bargaining and business synergy, thereby achieving the goal of reducing costs and increasing efficiency and improving the company's profitability.

 

With the help of low-code platform to achieve innovative application independent development, to promote the company's high-quality development.

 

Previously, limited by foreign ERP software platforms, application development requires high quality of personnel and is difficult. Through the implementation of a unified information platform (ERP system) and with the help of a low-code platform, the enthusiasm for light application innovation has been fully stimulated. Users only need to have a low level of development to design simple and practical applications on the sky system, enhance the ability of enterprises to create and share, and give full play to the value of group wisdom, to help Yunnan tobacco to achieve high-quality development.

 

Project Value

 

Replace foreign ERP system to open the industry

 

Foreign ERP software is based on the industrial age management scenario development product, the prevalence of "big, stupid, heavy" traditional architecture deployment, complex structure, slow response, whether expansion or iteration can not match the development needs of the digital age. At the same time, the cost of software use is high, the cost of implementation is high, and the cost of subsequent licensing and operation and maintenance is abnormally high. After replacing with domestic ERP software, it has strong localization attribute and fully considers the characteristics of domestic enterprises. The system has complete functional modules, strong flexibility, friendly interface design, conforms to the usage habits of domestic users, is simple and easy to use, and has low implementation and operation costs. It innovatively introduces cloud-native and middle-end architectures, can quickly iterate according to customer needs, and has strong system software compatibility.

 

Build an enterprise-class PAAS platform to achieve autonomous, controllable and scalable

 

The IT construction of large enterprises is undergoing profound changes. The digital transformation of top enterprises has basically completed the construction of IaaS and general GPaaS, forming its own set of cloud platform specifications and technology stack specifications. It has strict requirements on the openness and mainstream technologies of software manufacturers, and also needs more application APaaS platforms suitable for enterprise development. Yunnan Zhongyan Unified Information Platform (ERP System) selects Kingdee Cloud-Sky Platform as its support to help Yunnan Zhongyan Unified Information Platform (ERP System) realize decoupling, and the low-code platform based on dynamic domain model helps to realize independent control and scalability.
