On March 18, in the Shiyan Economic and Technological Development Zone, the workshop of Baolu Automobile Industry (Shiyan) Co., Ltd. was a bustling scene: machines roared, the assembly line ran at high speed, and workers were busy welding carriages, modifying truck-mounted cranes and other special-purpose car.

"I am simply too busy, and the orders have been queued up to July. " Yu Xingzhen, chairman of the company, said that in order to ensure delivery, the company has specially purchased special intelligent production equipment such as laser cutting machines, welding robots, and edge plate rolling lines to further improve production efficiency and product consistency, and has achieved output value in the first quarter. More than 400 million, a year-on-year increase of 10%.

Baolu Motors is a special-purpose vehicle R&D and manufacturing enterprise approved by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. It is also a first-level dealer of Dongfeng Commercial Vehicles, Dongfeng Huashen, and XCMG Truck-mounted Vehicles. More than a dozen truck-mounted lifting and transport vehicles are shipped from here every day. offline and shipped to all parts of the country.

“The Changjiang Automobile supply chain platform has made great contributions and helped us solve our urgent needs!” Yu Xingzhen introduced the benefits of joining the Yangtze Automobile supply chain to reporters from Hubei Daily: providing financial support, reducing inventory, and ensuring Quality, cost saving...

The first cooperation between the two parties was in September 2023. At that time, it was a critical time for Baolu Automobile to release its production capacity, but it encountered the problem of "stuck neck" in funds. "We need to purchase 183 cranes produced by Xuzhou XCMG Truck-mounted Crane Co., Ltd. at one time, and we need to pay the other party more than 30 million yuan. According to the production plan, it will take 3 months to digest these cranes, and the financial pressure is relatively high. ." Yu Xingzhen tried to call the docking personnel of the Yangtze Automobile Supply Chain Platform for help. Unexpectedly, this company, which was only established in April 2023, played a big role. The platform quickly developed a supply chain solution - the platform assisted in matching resources, purchased the cranes on its behalf, and then shipped them to Baolu Motors in batches according to the production rhythm. High-quality and effective service solutions opened up the supply chain at once, allowing Baolu to fully devote itself to the production of new businesses.

Taking the benefits of the first cooperation, Yu Xingzhen came up with the idea of ​​steel again. This is one of the company's main consumables, consuming more than 6,000 tons every year and occupying a very large amount of funds. In early March this year, Baolu Automobile issued an order to the platform, "locking in the price" for 1,680 tons of steel, and the platform would purchase it collectively. "The supply chain advanced 80% of the funds, and we only paid the deposit, which greatly eased the financial pressure on the company. Moreover, just by moving your fingers at home, the steel can be delivered to the workshop at any time!" Yu Xingzhen said, compared to the market-oriented The entire procurement process is not only simple and efficient, but also avoids operational risks caused by price fluctuations.

The supply chain is the "main artery" that smoothes the economic cycle. In April 2023, Shiyan participated in the establishment of Yangtze Automobile Industry Supply Chain Co., Ltd. The company was jointly established by Xiamen C&D Group, a Fortune 500 company, Wuhan Economic Development and Investment Group, Hubei Yangtze Automobile Industry Fund and Shiyan Industrial Investment Group. By integrating Hubei Province's automobile industry supply chain resources, the company provides the regional automobile industry with services such as raw material procurement, complete vehicle import and export, complete vehicle and parts distribution, automobile finance and logistics.

"In 2023, the company signed a total of 35 contracts in the Shiyan area. The order amount is 387 million yuan." Su Yaotang, general manager of Changjiang Automobile Supply Chain, said that in 2024, the company will strive to provide more stable supply chain service solutions for the upstream companies in the automobile industry in Shiyan area, and also expand some channels for the downstream distribution of automobiles. , and strive to make greater contributions to the high-quality development of Shiyan's automobile industry.
