Recently, AlphaFlow successfully won the bid for the process management platform project of China Railway Engineering Equipment Group Co., Ltd.! China Railway Equipment will introduce the AlphaFlow full-process platform to build a unified, intelligent, new-generation full-life cycle process digital platform to promote the implementation of information-based projects.
01 China Railway Equipment, a major national equipment
China Railway Engineering Equipment Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as China Railway Equipment) is a direct subsidiary of China Railway Group Limited, a Fortune 500 company. It is a large state-owned enterprise specializing in the research and development, manufacturing and technical services of tunnel boring machines (shield machines and hard rock tunnel boring machines). It is currently the tunnel engineering equipment manufacturing service provider with the strongest R&D and manufacturing capabilities, the most product types and core technologies, the highest domestic market share, and the most overseas exports. It has ranked first among the global full-section tunnel boring machine manufacturers for five consecutive years.
From the successful completion of the Shantou Bay Tunnel, my country's first world-class challenging project located in the 8-degree earthquake zone, in 2020 by the "China Railway 306", to the successful completion of the underwater excavation mission of the Pearl River Estuary Tunnel, the "world's deepest underwater tunnel" by the "Greater Bay Area" in 2024, the super-large shield tunneling machine built by China Railway Equipment has led the leapfrog development of the domestic shield tunneling industry.
02 Process management builds a thoroughfare
As a high-end equipment manufacturing company, in recent years, China Railway Equipment has taken "horizontal penetration, vertical penetration, and internal and external interconnection" as its goal. Starting from the company's strategic planning and top-level design, it has actively explored how to introduce digital technology into the underground engineering equipment industry, and is committed to achieving three major goals: First, let all management processes of the company be implemented through information technology; second, turn all data into strategic assets of the company; third, rely on data to assist scientific decision-making, and use knowledge graphs and big data analysis to assist companies in more scientific early warning, prediction and judgment.
In the promotion of the AlphaFlow full-process platform, China Railway Equipment aims to "unify planning and implement in steps" around the three major goals. First, relying on the AlphaFlow BPA process planning and design platform, we will conduct a comprehensive review and integrate it with the management element models such as systems, rules, performance, risks, positions, permissions, IT systems and data to implement the top-level architecture management elements. Realize the visualization, standardization and modeling management of the process management system.
Secondly, China Railway Equipment will leverage the AlphaFlow BPMA process management and automation platform to build a unified process operation, automation and integration platform, connect the original OA-borne island system, cover the operation and monitoring of end-to-end processes of each business line, and achieve transparent management.
Finally, China Railway Equipment will rely on the process analysis, mining and visualization capabilities of the AlphaFlow BPI process analysis and mining platform to discover problems in the end-to-end process operation, gain insight into the differences between AS-IS and TO-BE through consistency analysis, achieve early warning and reminders, provide support for continuous process optimization, and ultimately achieve new growth in business and process digital reforms.
