According to the China Coal Industry Association statistics show that in the first half of 2015 the national large and medium-sized coal enterprises losses have reached more than 70%. As the backbone of enterprises, China Coal Energy Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as: Coal group) in the first three quarters of 2015, the net profit also declined, which is largely affected by oversupply in the coal market, the market price continues to fall, the macroeconomic slowdown, the coal industry overcapacity and other factors.

Guotai Junan Group 20,153 Quarterly financial results: the company to strengthen inventory and raw material procurement management, the return of a large number of operating cash flow to maintain normal operation, the company's operating cash net flow of 1.279 billion yuan, compared with the same period last year increased by 587 million yuan. Although the overall coal business is at a loss, but benefiting from the deep application of information technology and the continuous strengthening of the management and control capabilities, China Coal group in the "winter" to maintain the strength of continued development.

As the general manager of the Information management Department of the Coal Group, ZHANGGP completed 5 years of ERP to the coal group's full coverage, at the same time through the open-pit mine GPS truck dispatching system, fixed post unattended digital mine, the bulk coal e-commerce platform, such as "WU Technology" practical application for the coal group "Winter" and the transformation of development has laid a technical reserve.

Comprehensive data standardization

Since 2009, the Chinese coal group has been implementing the implementation of ERP, by 2014, the entire group has achieved full coverage, with a large centralized deployment of a system to support the entire group of more than 1000 accounting units. The system from Headquarters to the most basic units, the realization of the financial, procurement, sales, human resources, funds and other unified centralized control, but also to achieve the overall standardization of data, at present, only a few enterprises in state-owned enterprises can achieve such a level.

For ZHANGGP, the standardization of data is an important part of his work and the biggest challenge, to achieve the standardization of data to a large extent, the entire enterprise business process standardization and process. Because of the large number of enterprises in the coal group, different enterprises and different departments even to the same items have different titles, so need to standardize the code, the Chinese Coal Group Information Standardization Committee also set up.

The Information standardization Committee of the Coal Group has led the work of data standardization, and the group has classified and encoded information such as customers, suppliers, financial basic information, materials, products and even system users through master data management system. As of December 31, 2014, the group has more than 1.44 million data in the master Data management system. And the enterprise if need to add a new item code, need to first in the system to search for the existence of similar items, if not have to declare, through the approval after the release to the whole group.

Business process carding also follow the same idea, the coal group ERP project has combed over 700 processes, involving finance, procurement, sales, management, human resources, all business processes to enter the ERP system. It also involves controlling internal controls such as approvals in business processes, which cost ZHANGGP and its team a considerable amount of time. After the data standardization and business process combing, it is necessary to clarify the job responsibilities of each post and solidify into the system, which is equivalent to re-carding the business involved, "the process of the middle is quite painful".

It is this very solid information system, for the Chinese coal Group Management 52 subsidiaries, 46 coal mines, nearly 312.2 billion yuan total assets and more than 100,000 practitioners laid a solid foundation (2014 data).

"Internet + coal" transformation

In addition to strengthening corporate governance through the ERP system, ZHANGGP also led the team to "Internet +" as the Guide, through scientific and technological innovation for the Chinese coal group to find new business space.

Chinese coal Group E-commerce supply chain Management (ESCM) is an "e-commerce + internal supply chain" management platform, it with "Internet + coal" thinking to solve the transformation of business model challenges. Among them, "E" refers to the China Coal e-commerce platform to the coal group's own product sales and service-oriented, is for domestic and foreign customers of the bulk coal e-commerce platform; "SCM" refers to the internal supply chain management system to complete the real-time processing of business information and integration with China Coal Group ERP depth.

ESCM Project on-line operation, the first to open up the internal supply chain management system, the basic realization of coal in coal production, transportation, distribution of information interconnection, improve the production enterprises, port transit enterprises, downstream enterprises business turnover efficiency, improve the response speed to customers. The second is the preliminary construction of the coal supply chain ecosystem, the realization of the production and marketing of "business flow, logistics, capital flow, information flow" four-in-one, to achieve with customers, suppliers, banks, logistics, shipping, quality inspection and other external partners information sharing. Again, the e-commerce platform on-line operation to help the Chinese coal group to achieve the Sales business transformation and sales channel expansion.

Under the difficult market situation, China Coal group ESCM improved the operation efficiency of the sales business and promoted the transformation of coal sales from traditional trade mode to new e-commerce model.

Digital Mine "Wu-jin Technology"

Similar to the digital factory in Industry 4.0, digital mine construction is an important part of coal production transformation. On the basis of digitalization, Informationization, virtualization, intellectualization and integration, digital mine realizes the integration of coal mine production management and computer network management. In the country to the coal mine safety attaches great importance today, digital mine also through remote, automation and unmanned technology means, greatly reduce the occurrence of production safety accident probability and caused by the loss.

The coal group developed the open-pit slope monitoring system, using stress, GPS, radar and other monitoring methods, all-weather, all-round to the small displacement changes of the mine slope to a large area of accurate monitoring, through the improvement of advanced early warning and forecasting system, to ensure the slope of the lower buildings and mining area production safety.

For mine production operations, China Coal group real-time monitoring of downhole production environment, in Beijing headquarters can see the underground real-time production status. and the automatic transformation of downhole operation equipment, so that the internal coal mine group has gradually built into a fixed post unattended, reducing the efficiency of the digital mine.

In the open-pit mining area, the coal group developed a GPS truck dispatching system for open-pit mines and automated scientific management of open-pit mining equipment. By cross calculation, the operation of the open-pit equipment can be accurate to a few centimeters. The system also allows the Chinese coal group to track the dynamics of trucks and drivers in a timely manner, and to gain real-time access to the truck's operations in the mining area.

Coal Group in Shaanxi Yulin has a coal chemical enterprise, in the use of production control automation and production management information, relative to the same size of enterprises, in the lower half of the staff at the same time also maintained a high production efficiency. All production processes in this plant are controlled in the production control room, where the production site is normally unmanned. Through the deep integration of industrialization and information technology, in the 2015, similar-sized factories generally little profit or profit, the factory in 2015 to achieve a profit of more than 10 billion.

After 5 years of complete ERP system coverage and the successful application of many "technology", ZHANGGP is leading his team to research the internet of things and the application of big data, through on-line monitoring of production devices, pipelines, valves, meters, etc., to analyze the large amount of data collected, In order to optimize the whole process of chemical plant in the coal group.

The 2014-year-old coal group set up its own financial company to provide innovative financial services for enterprises in the ecosystem, which also needs the support of informatization.
