The challenge of parts in the digital transformation of auto

With the development of technologies such as Internet, big data and artificial intelligence, the digital wave is driving profound changes in the global automobile industry. From intelligent networked cars to self-driving cars, from shared travel services to electric cars, new technologies and business models are constantly emerging, which are changing the ecosystem of the traditional automobile industry. In this process, automobile manufacturing enterprises are facing unprecedented opportunities and challenges, among which the digital transformation of parts is particularly critical.

First, the management of spare parts supply chain is more difficult

1. Digital transformation requires parts suppliers to have higher flexibility to cope with market changes. In the traditional mode, the production plan of spare parts is relatively fixed, but now it is necessary to flexibly adjust the production capacity according to the order quantity, which undoubtedly increases the management cost of enterprises.

2. The demand for information transparency has increased. In order to ensure the quality of the whole vehicle and reduce the risk, it is necessary to monitor the equipment status online and predict the faults. Therefore, how to realize data collection, processing and analysis has become one of the urgent problems to be solved.

3. Security issues are increasingly prominent. The application scope of vehicle networking technology is expanding, and network security protection measures must also keep pace to prevent hackers from causing vehicles to get out of control or revealing user privacy.

Second, the lack of technological innovation capacity

Although many domestic parts enterprises have reached the international leading level in some fields, there are still shortcomings in the research and development of core technologies. Especially in the fields of new energy power system, intelligent driving assistance system, etc., due to the late start and huge investment, it is difficult for many small and medium-sized enterprises to bear high R&D expenses and technology introduction costs, resulting in weak product competitiveness.

Third, the shortage of talents restricts development

High-end professionals are the core force to promote industrial innovation and development. However, at present, China's automobile industry, especially the spare parts field, is facing a serious talent shortage, especially the lack of professional compound talents who know both information technology and automobile engineering. In addition, the aging of existing employees' knowledge structure is also a problem that cannot be ignored, and their digital skills need to be continuously improved through training.

To sum up, in the face of the challenges brought by the digital transformation of automobile manufacturing industry, relevant enterprises should actively seek solutions, strengthen cooperation and exchanges with scientific research institutes in universities, increase investment in research and development, pay attention to personnel training and introduction, strive to improve their core competitiveness and contribute to the healthy development of the industry. At the same time, the government should also introduce corresponding policies to support and create a good external environment.
