"Based on the market situation in the past two years, the industry has reached a consensus on the declining demand in the future and the increasingly fierce market competition," said Liu Bo, vice president of Shenzhen Hand. In this context, the future of the cement industry will be "the market for managers and the market for numbers". Liu Bo
, Vice President of
Shenzhen Hand, in the industry environment of declining demand and fierce market competition, improving the efficiency of production and operation and reducing the cost of enterprises have become the key to success. The confusion of cement logistics organization and management is one of the main shortcomings faced by cement enterprises at present, which is expected to play an important role in further reducing costs and increasing efficiency for cement enterprises.
Liu Bo pointed out that for a long time, the logistics organization mode of cement enterprises has been quite extensive, which is embodied in the prevalence of acquaintance economy, inefficient management and dispatch, and many loopholes in process supervision. These not only greatly increase the cost of cement logistics, but also make it difficult to eliminate the situation of fleeing goods.
Based on this, Liu Bo believes that it is more and more urgent to improve the level of refinement and digitalization of logistics management in cement enterprises, and then solve the above problems.
Founded in 2015, Shenzhen Hand is a high-tech enterprise dedicated to building an intelligent, efficient and convenient "vehicle intelligent weighing SaaS platform". All along, Shenzhen Hand has focused on the flow control of the cement industry, and deeply tapped its value, reducing operating costs for cement enterprises, improving market control and bringing practical benefits.
In the past few years, Shenzhen Hand has provided a new logistics management and control system for the cement industry by using the core technology of "on-board intelligent weighing equipment + AI algorithm" and combining "Beidou/GPS location information and tasks", which can automatically judge loading and unloading events, loading and unloading areas, and automatically judge whether there is a violation. To realize the full visualization of cement flow and effectively solve the problem of fleeing goods that cement enterprises abhor in the process of sales and market management, Shenzhen Hand has served 22 top 30 cement enterprises and 150000 online vehicles on the platform.
In recent years, Shenzhen Hand has continued to dig deeply into the value of flow control, dig deep into the transport capacity resources, build a transport capacity platform based on the cement industry, match orders with transport capacity through the platform, optimize the allocation of transport capacity resources, change the original matching mode, improve the efficiency of receiving and issuing orders for logistics transportation, and then greatly reduce transportation costs.
Liu Bo: "The current excess transport capacity is quite obvious, but because of the existence of the acquaintance economy, there are a lot of idle transport capacity in the society that has not been effectively utilized, so it is necessary to establish a logistics platform to combine the demand side with the transport side, which can greatly reduce the cost of cement transportation.".
Relevant data show that through the integration of transport capacity resources by Shenzhen Hand, the level of fine logistics management of cement enterprises has been significantly improved. Taking a certain place in Guangdong as an example, the original transportation cost of about 40 kilometers is 27 yuan/ton, but after the integration of Shenzhen Hand Platform, the freight is reduced to 25 yuan/ton, which creates solid economic benefits for enterprises.
Liu Bo also pointed out that in the short term, the fine management of cement logistics should be the primary consideration for cement enterprises to reduce costs, but in the long run, it will be the key for cement enterprises to gain greater market initiative by using the digital enabling intelligent factory of cement logistics to realize the intelligent decision-making of enterprise operation and sales. The sales manager of
a leading cement enterprise said bluntly, "Cement logistics data can help us analyze which market is good and where the potential is great, so that our sales decisions can be more focused.".
Liu Bo believes that for a long time, due to the lack of systematic and effective means of fine management of cement logistics, the massive logistics data of cement enterprises have not been fully utilized. In the future, cement enterprises can systematically collate and share the logistics data, and then realize intelligent decision-making at the management level in the near future.
