The mold industry needs to prepare itself to embrace the era of big data.
Today, with the advent of the information age, an increasing number of traditional mold-making enterprises have come to recognize the importance of transformation. By leveraging big data technologies of the current era, these enterprises can break through existing barriers and achieve breakthroughs. As the “mother of industry,” the mold-making sector undoubtedly needs to take advantage of all the conveniences offered by the information age to equip itself fully, truly keeping pace with the times and embarking on a path of continuous advancement.
Today, with the advent of the information age, an increasing number of traditional mold-making enterprises have come to recognize the importance of transformation. By leveraging big data technologies of the modern era, these enterprises can break through longstanding challenges and carve out new paths for success. As the “mother of industry,” the mold-making sector undoubtedly needs to harness the various conveniences offered by the information age to equip itself fully, truly keeping pace with the times and embarking on a path of continuous advancement.
The origins of big data can be traced back to industries such as the internet, e-commerce, telecom operators, and finance. Due to the inherent characteristics of these industries, they are naturally able to generate massive amounts of data during their production and operational processes, making them pioneers in the big data industry.
However, it can be confidently asserted that the greater demand for big data and its broad application prospects still lie in traditional industries. Big data will serve as the optimal convergence point for traditional industries as they adapt to the internet era.
So, traditional industries looking to build big data teams need to be well-prepared. Since the goal is to establish a big data team, it’s essential to have talent with a solid background in big data. Big data cannot be discussed purely as a technical concept, divorced from the industry and the enterprise itself—such an approach would be nothing but a castle in the air. Likewise, analysis that fails to embrace big data thinking will lead to the mere mechanical application of data without real value. Therefore, when traditional mold-making companies and other manufacturing enterprises assemble big data teams, they not only need technical experts in big data but also courageous change agents who possess deep industry expertise and a keen big data mindset.
When building a big data team in our mold industry, we need to focus on the following points:
1. First, get a taste of big data—then discuss how to proceed. It’s recommended that before building a big data platform, you take some time to experiment with big data first.
2. First, form internal “teams”—experts can only serve as “external support.” Simply put, this team must include individuals who “collect data,” those who “analyze data,” and those who “use data.”
3. When it comes to big data, “personalized customization” is essential. Can’t get the data? Processes can’t be streamlined? Systems can’t interoperate with each other? These seemingly minor issues are actually the foundational building blocks that determine whether big data can truly deliver its full potential in the future. Only by getting a firm grasp on the pulse of leading enterprises and identifying potential problems can we unlock big data’s true effectiveness.
4. The CEO must take an active role. The ultimate goal of an enterprise’s big data initiative is to turn it into the “brain” behind corporate decision-making and the “command baton” for marketing and sales. Ultimately, big data must be able to support all aspects of the business—it’s a company-wide undertaking of paramount importance. Therefore, the advancement of a big data strategy requires full engagement from corporate leaders to ensure that the initiative stays on track.
Only by continuously embracing change and fostering development—and by preparing ourselves fully for the era of big data—can our mold industry secure long-term survival amidst fierce competition. The future is not far off; let’s wait and see!
