The light industry is a traditional advantageous industry and an important livelihood - related industry in China's national economy, with a relatively good foundation in digital transformation. Statistics show that by the end of 2024, the penetration rate of digital R & D and design tools among light industry enterprises reached 84.9%, the proportion of enterprises achieving networked collaboration reached 47.2%, and the proportion of enterprises carrying out personalized customization reached 18.3%, which were 0.8, 2.0, and 2.8 percentage points higher than the national average respectively. The introduction of the "Implem)entation Plan" will further accelerate the digital transformation of the light industry.
The "Implementation Plan" puts forward a two - step development goal: By 2027, the penetration rate of digital R & D and design tools among key light industry enterprises will reach around 90%, the numerical control rate of key processes will reach around 75%, about 100 typical scenarios will be created, about 60 benchmark enterprises will be cultivated, and a number of digital transformation achievements will be formed. By 2030, light industry enterprises above a designated size will generally implement digital transformation, forming a digital ecosystem of "intelligent transformation, digital transformation, and network connection", and the development level of the industry in terms of high - end, intelligent, and green aspects will be significantly improved.
Centering around the development goals, the "Implementation Plan" has deployed and implemented four major actions, namely, enabling with new - generation information technology, innovative application of new models and new business forms, high - quality industrial development, and strengthening basic support, which are refined into 15 specific measures. It strengthens classified guidance for sub - sectors such as home appliances, furniture, hardware products, and electric bicycles, and realizes the step - by - step transformation and upgrading from "digital workshops - smart factories - smart supply chains" and an overall leap in the digital level through the traction of digital scenarios.
The "Implementation Plan" focuses on the innovative application of new - generation information technology in the light industry and proposes to implement the "New - Generation Information Technology Enabling Action", highlighting four specific tasks:
It emphasizes unleashing the value of data elements. By using technologies such as data mining, knowledge graphs, and intelligent modeling, enterprises' data governance and data application capabilities will be enhanced, making data the core asset for enterprise transformation and upgrading.
It emphasizes the research and application of advanced technologies. Pooling superior resources to research and develop common technologies such as intelligent control, human - machine interaction, and system integration, as well as application technologies such as collaborative design, intelligent production scheduling, and personalized customization, to consolidate the digital technology foundation in the light industry field.
It emphasizes the deployment of industrial Internet platforms. Promote the establishment of a number of cross - industry and cross - field comprehensive platforms, as well as characteristic platforms for specific industries and specific scenarios, to enhance the service capabilities of the light industry.
It emphasizes the enabling application of artificial intelligence. Focus on cultivating production scenarios such as collaborative design, intelligent production, and preventive maintenance, as well as consumption scenarios such as smart homes, smart wearables, and smart cycling.
