China's Intelligent Manufacturing Capability Maturity Level Steadily Improves


Beijing, March 15 (People's Daily Online, Reporter Qiao Xuefeng) - Recently, based on intelligent manufacturing capability maturity data from over 20,000 enterprises, the China Electronics Standardization Institute conducted a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the development of intelligence in domestic manufacturing. The research released the "Intelligent Manufacturing Development Index Report (2021)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report"), which multidimensionally describes the key operational status of the manufacturing industry in areas such as design, production, logistics, sales, and service. It intuitively reflects the progress of intelligent manufacturing development in the manufacturing sector during 2021, presenting a "Data Map of China's Manufacturing Industry Intelligent Manufacturing Development."

 

According to the Report, as of December 2021, over 20,000 enterprises nationwide had conducted self-assessments of their intelligent manufacturing capability maturity through the Public Service Platform for Intelligent Manufacturing Evaluation. Data from the service platform indicates that currently, 69% of China's manufacturing enterprises are at Level 1 or below. Enterprises reaching Level 2 and Level 3 account for 15% and 7% respectively, while those at Level 4 and above constitute 9%. In 2021, the national intelligent manufacturing capability maturity of the manufacturing industry improved compared to 2020. The proportion of enterprises with low maturity (Level 1 and below) decreased by 6 percentage points, while the number of enterprises with high maturity (Level 3 and above) increased by 5 percentage points.

 

The Report shows the provincial-level ranking (2021) of enterprises that participated in the intelligent manufacturing capability maturity self-assessment and achieved maturity Level 2 or above. The TOP 10 provinces and municipalities are: Jiangsu Province, Shandong Province, Guangdong Province, Hunan Province, Anhui Province, Beijing City, Jiangxi Province, Zhejiang Province, Hubei Province, and Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. The city-level ranking (2021) of enterprises that participated in the self-assessment and achieved maturity Level 2 or above places Wuxi, Changsha, Suzhou, Shenzhen, and Beijing in the top five positions.

 

The Report selected industries with over 300 self-assessment enterprises as data samples for comprehensive analysis. The results indicate that industries such as computer electronic equipment, automotive, electrical appliances, food, pharmaceuticals, special equipment manufacturing, chemical raw materials and products, and non-ferrous metal smelting rank among the top in China regarding intelligent manufacturing capability maturity levels.

 

From an industry perspective, the maturity level of discrete manufacturing is generally higher than that of process manufacturing. Discrete manufacturing enterprises at Level 1 and below account for approximately 67.1%, lower than the 72.2% for process manufacturing enterprises. The proportion of discrete manufacturing enterprises at Levels 2 and 3 is 2.5 percentage points higher than that of process manufacturing enterprises, and the number of discrete manufacturing enterprises at Level 4 and above is 2.7 percentage points higher than that of process manufacturing enterprises.

 

Intelligent manufacturing is the primary direction for building a strong manufacturing nation and a key pathway for manufacturing enterprises to enhance their core competitiveness. Its development quality directly affects the overall level of high-quality development in China's manufacturing industry. In December 2021, eight ministries and commissions including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the "14th Five-Year Plan for Intelligent Manufacturing Development," clearly stating that by 2025, the level of intelligent manufacturing capability maturity should be significantly improved. It also calls for establishing a long-term evaluation mechanism, encouraging third-party institutions to conduct intelligent manufacturing capability maturity assessments, and researching and releasing industry and regional intelligent manufacturing development indices. In response, a relevant official from the China Electronics Standardization Institute stated that they will unite forces from industry, academia, research, and application, continue to strengthen the application and promotion of intelligent manufacturing capability maturity standards, fully leverage the empowering role of standards, and support China's intelligent manufacturing level in reaching new heights.
