[0015] Reference Figure 1-3 , a method for constructing a digital shipyard supply chain platform, the method comprising: Phase 1: Sort out historical material information, establish a new material coding system, and promote coding standardization to ensure one-to-one correspondence between material codes and financial account codes; Develop QR code + RFID tag management function to achieve accurate material life cycle management with one code for each item, one code for each batch, and one code for each box, laying the foundation for the promotion of supplier collaborative labeling; Internal collaboration: The supply chain management platform is integrated with the information systems of related departments to open up data links between departments and business processes, ensuring smooth internal collaboration; Supplier management: Build a supplier management module to manage suppliers from admission to completion of supply cooperation, and accumulate historical data as a reference for future assessment and rating; By building supply chain management internal collaboration and supplier management functional modules, we can initially establish information-based operations for the entire supply chain management process, realize the information-based circulation of internal business, improve business efficiency and the rate of on-time arrival of materials, issue early warnings for delayed arrivals, and ensure smooth production.

[0016] Phase 2: External collaboration module: After the internal collaboration is perfected and running smoothly, develop external collaborative interaction functions with the shipowner platform, supplier system, and material e-commerce platform, realize external collaborative business flow and data transmission through cloud platform connection or system integration, further improve the functional modules of the supply chain management platform, and promote supplier QR code + RFID labeling to qualified and willing suppliers, thereby reducing the workload of the material department, reducing time costs, and improving work efficiency; By building an external collaborative management module, we can strengthen cooperation with suppliers and reduce the workload of some data maintenance and manual labeling. At the same time, the maintenance of material information by suppliers can be used for pre-planning of cargo locations, reducing the processing time of warehousing business and improving warehouse management efficiency.

[0017] Phase 3: "Zero inventory": Based on the internal and external supply chain business environment, combined with historical data analysis and prediction, we can achieve accurate procurement of non-reserved materials with zero inventory, and use them as soon as they arrive; "Zero inventory" achieves accurate procurement through control of the procurement process and close collaboration with suppliers, reduces pressure on capital turnover, and solves the placement problem of large equipment.

[0018] The specific scheme of the digital shipyard supply chain platform constructed by the present invention is as follows: 1. Business Architecture The design of key business processes is guided by the "lean management philosophy" to sort out, standardize and consolidate the collaborative process of full business management; it is demand-oriented, data-driven and process-driven to effectively organize and dispatch procurement resources, and realize the business process-based, data-based, transparent and digital production and operation management of the entire life cycle of materials such as supply chain procurement demand management, material supply management, inventory material management and material distribution management, provide a collaborative environment with internal and external connections, and effectively serve digital supply chain management. The key to unblocking the process is to establish a unified data standard specification system and a data governance specification system to ensure that the data is standardized, complete and accurate to meet the needs of digital supply chain management.

[0019] Compared with the current situation, the key business planning process is mainly reflected in the following aspects: (1) Through data governance, we can solve the problems of non-standard and non-uniform design source data, build a design procurement demand list and associate it with the assembly pallet list, cost objects, inspection items, and delivery schedule, so that the design source data can meet the requirements of digital management and control of the entire business process of the production supply chain; (2) Open up external data links with suppliers to monitor the production status and logistics transportation status of suppliers' contract products; (3) Strengthen the management of material distribution. Based on the production plan and material demand plan, the distributed materials can be accurately delivered to the production site; (4) Open up the external data link with the shipowner to solve the problem of coordination in reporting inspection to the shipowner; (5) Integrated management and control of quotations, targets, and actual costs; (6) Based on the full business data of supply chain management, it provides data aggregation, statistics, forecasting, analysis and visualization functions for various management levels of the supply chain, effectively supporting the management decision-making of the entire supply chain process.

[0020] 2. Functional System Architecture The construction of the supply chain management platform application architecture is based on the supply chain management business architecture, the current status of related applications and countermeasures. The application function architecture is based on the supply chain management business domain, with standards as the criteria, supply chain management business processes as the guide, data as the drive, and based on the microservice integrated application development cloud platform. It makes full use of the best practices of the shipping industry, decision analysis models, business collaboration rules, shipping industry supply chain components, visualization tools and other resource libraries to build an integrated supply chain collaborative management platform, and integrates digital R&D design, digital manufacturing, production operation management, financial / cost management, quality management and other related systems to achieve the transformation from "semi-manual, semi-informatization" to internal and external supply chain sharing.

[0021] 1. Basic support layer The basic support layer is the foundation of the application architecture, providing the following support for the construction of the supply chain management full-business application ecosystem at the business application layer and for the data aggregation, mining, and processing and analysis at the decision-making layer: (1) Industry resource libraries such as shipbuilding industry best practices, decision analysis models, business collaboration rules, ship supply chain industry components, and visualization tools provide advanced industry resource library support for the transformation and innovative application of digital shipbuilding lean management models; (2) The integrated application development cloud platform provides a unified development platform support for the construction of an integrated application ecosystem for supply chain collaborative management. At the same time, through RESTful API / cloud connection components, it realizes integration with DC's internal and external application systems, providing a good environment support for building internal and external supply chain collaboration; (3) The master data management platform provides unified, standardized, complete, accurate and unique master data for integrated supply chain collaborative management applications, laying the foundation for the interconnection and interoperability of various application systems; (4) The big data platform provides mining and processing, data storage and calculation, and data analysis functions for supply chain collaborative management business data, providing management with decision support for supply chain collaborative management full business data processing, mining, and analysis.

[0022] 2. Business application layer Based on the integrated application development cloud platform, we develop an integrated supply chain collaborative management application ecosystem including external collaborative management, material procurement management, supplier management, document management, inventory material management, material collection and distribution management, and material distribution management. At the same time, through RESTful API / cloud connection components, we deeply integrate digital R&D design, digital production and manufacturing, production operation management, finance / cost management, quality / cost management, equipment and facility management and other related systems to achieve data sharing, process integration, and business collaboration between supply chain management and other business management application systems.

[0023] 3. Support decision-makers Through the big data platform, the business management data of the supply chain business application layer is collected, mined, processed, and analyzed, and presented through a variety of visual displays such as data tables, curve charts, pie charts, and bar charts, providing the supply chain management with comprehensive and relevant full-business data support for management decisions. At the same time, it provides decision-making data support for the command and operation center; Decision support analysis mainly includes material supply forecast, comprehensive supplier evaluation, external supply information tracking and forecast, material supply risk, material procurement delivery period, procurement contract fulfillment rate, material completeness rate, inventory capital backlog, etc., providing data analysis support for decision-making and improving and optimizing supply chain processes.

[0024] 3. Data Architecture With data standard specification system and data governance specification system as management guidelines, business data management as the basis, and business data governance as the guarantee means, we will improve the quality of business management data, build a unified database, open up the full business data link of supply chain management such as product design and supply chain, production planning and supply chain, production and manufacturing and material distribution, eliminate information breakpoints, promote the integration of supply chain management and business management, and comprehensively enhance the data support capabilities of management decisions through the big data platform.

[0025] The data architecture is constructed in three layers: data generation layer, data management layer and data application layer. Each layer of data is governed by data governance to solve problems such as data non-standardization, non-uniformity, poor synchronization, poor quality, and data format, content, and form that cannot meet digital management requirements.

[0026] (1) Data generation layer In this case, the content of the data generation layer is mainly to manage business data and master data; The data generated by the business includes procurement management, delivery management, contract management, after-sales operation and maintenance management, distribution management, supplier management, quality management, financial management, cost management, design management, legal management and other business data; The master data generated or managed by the master data management platform is the basic data provided for public use by the business system, ensuring that the master data is complete, accurate and unique in each business system, laying the foundation for the interconnection and interoperability of business application systems.

[0027] (2) Data management layer From a technical perspective, the big data platform supports traditional data integration methods such as databases and interfaces (Webservice), as well as data bus (ESB) and message queue methods (such as Kafka); from the perspective of business data lists, the list of business generation layer data entering the big data platform depends on the in-depth development of data governance projects, combing and cleaning data, making clear requirements for data quality and collection frequency, and establishing data business models and data asset maps in the big data platform. This realizes data integration at the data level and data application and analysis across business domains.

[0028] (3) Data application layer It mainly provides data and computing power support for the big data platform, realizing multi-dimensional analysis and multi-format analysis data display of management application data such as supply chain inventory material capital backlog, intermediate product completeness, material entry and exit frequency and usage, intermediate product allocation efficiency, material distribution punctuality, material distribution problems, material supply futures, supplier comprehensive evaluation, and procurement contract fulfillment rate.

[0029] 4. System Integration Solution System integration is a prerequisite for eliminating information breakpoints and opening up data links. It is also a necessary condition for realizing digital supply chain management. It aims to meet the management requirements of "advance measurement, dynamic control, timely clearing, and instant analysis" and build digital supply chain management. Through the integration of various applications within the digital supply chain management platform and the deep integration of the digital supply chain management platform with external supplier information systems, shipowner information systems, and material platforms, a digital supply chain management environment that is internally and externally connected is built for the digital supply chain management platform.

[0030] To implement system integration, first of all, it is necessary to establish a unified integration standard and specification system; secondly, in accordance with the integration standard and specification system, guided by the integrated business management process, sort out and standardize the integration standard interfaces; then, use integration technologies and tools to achieve seamless integration of various application systems inside and outside the digital production and operation platform.

[0031] Compared with the existing technology, it has significant advantages: (1) Standardize and normalize source data such as the procurement requirements of production materials for ship design, open up business data links with design, planning, production, suppliers, shipowners, etc., build an internal and external collaborative environment, achieve efficient collaboration between internal and external supply chains, and improve on-time delivery rates and material completeness rates.

[0032] (2) Standardize and consolidate the material supply management process, open up internal and external data links, dynamically monitor the entire supply chain process, and realize process-based, networked, and transparent collaborative management of internal and external supply chains.

[0033] (3) Multiple departments and roles, such as production management and material management, coordinate the management of material distribution to improve the efficiency of accurate material distribution. The digital distribution function can respond to production needs in a timely manner and maximize the use of transportation resources, thereby avoiding production delays caused by "materials waiting for people". Information technology applications also improve the accuracy and completeness of distribution and improve production efficiency.

[0034] (4) The supplier management function can achieve the selection of the best suppliers and the elimination of the worst ones, monitor the production status of suppliers in real time, reduce the uncertainties in the procurement process, reduce management costs, improve management efficiency, and avoid potential problems.

[0035] (5) Introduce RFID + QR code technology, and realize one-code-one-item and full-life cycle management of materials through supplier coding and coding of uncoded materials entering the warehouse. Introduce the construction of three-dimensional warehouses, and the system realizes accurate storage location management. According to the material coding attribute information, automatic query and planning matching of storage locations can be realized.

[0036] (6) The platform enables real-time sharing of procurement information and provides data support for leadership decision-making. Informatization of office improves the accuracy of procurement data transmission, greatly improves work efficiency, and reduces offline labor costs.
