MIIT Releases Digital Transformation Guide, Lingshu Leads Standard Setting | Wire Brief

MIIT Releases Major SME Digital Transformation Guidelines to Accelerate Chinese Enterprise Modernization

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) recently issued the Guidelines for Digital Transformation of Small and Medium Enterprises (hereinafter referred to as "the Guidelines"), targeting manufacturing enterprises, digital transformation service providers, and local government authorities at all levels. Ling Shu Intelligent, an active promoter of high-quality development and large-scale adoption of autonomous production management software, participated in the drafting and formulation of the Guidelines standards.

Manufacturing enterprises are a vital force in national economic and social development, playing an important role in expanding employment, improving people's livelihoods, and fostering entrepreneurship and innovation. Accelerating their digital transformation is a critical mission for achieving high-quality development. Advanced production and operations management concepts will be disseminated to more Chinese companies, allowing them to experience firsthand the remarkable results that digital transformation can deliver.

How Does Digital Transformation Take Root? "Operations + Management" Emerges as the Top Priority

The path to digital transformation has never been standardized, but this time the Guidelines offer clear objectives: building a new value system through product innovation and upgrading, business operations optimization, and management model transformation.

From Ling Shu's perspective, manufacturing enterprises need to rely on operations management improvements to ensure smooth digital transformation across production, quality, equipment, inventory, warehousing and logistics, and even safety and environmental protection. For larger-scale enterprises, through the continuous evolution of their management systems, they can establish comprehensive closed-loop control, optimize manufacturing resource allocation across a broad scope, achieve refined and intensive management, and even realize system-level optimization of complex operations.

An advanced management system is not merely necessary during digital transformation — it should be a top priority for enterprises.

With Linghao Factory, Every Chinese Enterprise Can Achieve Digital Management

As a principal drafter of the Guidelines, Ling Shu has long been a practitioner of operations management digitalization. Through nearly a century of exploration in manufacturing production management systems, it has gradually accumulated and developed advanced production management experience and methodologies. These methods are not abstract concepts — they can be fully implemented through digital means.

Ling Shu's self-developed Linghao Factory production operations management system distills advanced management concepts and, tailored to Chinese customer needs, embeds extensive industry management transformation experience into the software. When enterprises use Linghao Factory, they not only digitize production information and move office workflows online, but also manage their factories with advanced methodologies. This addresses a long-standing bottleneck — the low success rate of digital transformation implementation among Chinese enterprises — and achieves genuine import substitution in industrial software.

With the issuance and promotion of the Guidelines, an increasing number of enterprises nationwide will be able to access more lean, better-fitted digital transformation solutions at lower cost, guided by the Guidelines' framework.

Today, Linghao Factory has already empowered dozens of manufacturing clients across more than ten industries — including automotive components, powertrain systems, specialized equipment manufacturing, heavy machinery, and smart home appliances — to achieve genuine operational capability improvements and management coordination. Looking ahead, Ling Shu's management philosophy will be put into practice and validated across a growing number of Chinese enterprises.
