Explore the development of valve business

With the West-East main transformer bid, the industry is very clear to know that China's only finalists of the enterprise due to performance and price reasons were eliminated, which we can not fail to think about China's valve business failure is China's valve business how to survive in the competition, in the competition and development? On this issue correspondents made a special trip to visit the China Valve Association Secretary-General Mr. Kang Jiqiao, on the development of China's valve industry in-depth discussion.

Hardships, hard training internal strength

Correspondent: West-East is China's major projects, which enterprises can bid in this project will play a pivotal role in the industry, the main road of the large-caliber valve bidding has come to an end, China's domestic Business annihilate, what do you think is the reason?

Secretary-General Kang: China's implementation of the western development strategy, the domestic valve business and even foreign valve companies are a golden opportunity, the main road to the West-East large-diameter valve bid is a test of the strength of a comprehensive business Times the finalists Zigong high valve on its product quality should be able to bid with the success of the United States Cooper - Cameron valve (Cooper Camron Valvrs) and Italy Grove compared to its products with international advanced Level, but participate in international competition, not only the technical quality of the competition, as well as services, prices and many other factors on the competition. Domestic large-caliber valve products have not been verified in major projects, there is no performance in this regard, the user requires zero risk, but also makes sense.

From the valve industry in general, domestic enterprises with international competitiveness of the product is not much, especially high-level products. However, since the reform and opening up the valve industry has been rapid development, especially the private enterprises, joint-stock enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises in the market boom has played a decisive role. Through recent years, statistics show that because of the private sector, joint-stock enterprises, foreign companies, their mechanism is flexible, economic growth is very fast, and most state-owned enterprises in recent years difficult. Although the valve industry has made great progress, but we must also recognize that our overall level compared with the developed countries in the world there is a considerable gap. China's valve industry is still in the development stage, in technology, variety, material and quality, etc. need to be further improved. In order to catch up with the advanced level of the world's valve industry, the valve business must be hard to practice hard work.

Correspondent: Just now you talk about the mechanism of the enterprise, do you think the mechanism is the key to restricting the development of state-owned enterprises in recent years?

Health Secretary: Captain is a prerequisite for the survival of enterprises, with a good mechanism we can talk about development, in recent years, state-owned enterprises operating difficulties, not only the mechanism of the problem but the key to the development of state-owned enterprises is the mechanism, well-known, reform Is to die, do not reform is dead This has shown that state-owned enterprises have to develop only one way - reform. Valve industry after 40 years of development, in this course of development, if he does not break the shackles of his development of the rope, he can not play his own advantage. The key to state-owned enterprises is to enhance the ability of rapid response in the market, the use of flexible mode of operation, establish a positive sense of service, the enterprise's product quality as the life of the enterprise, the customer as God. Then he will embark on the path of innovation and development. From the overall situation point of view, in recent years the domestic valve industry by metallurgy, petrochemical transformation and the West-East Gas Transmission project started the impact of business operations generally better, and the emergence of various forms of operating system, many private enterprises, On August 4, 2002, the representative of TUV, the author of the international authoritative certification company, issued the certificate of "CE" H model issued by EU pressure equipment to China Nuclear Valve Technology Co., Ltd., which is the industry of China's valve industry Obtained the first "CE" H model certificate into the EU market. Since then, the Chinese valve officially received access to the EU market tickets.

Correspondent: Through the above conversation, we have a further understanding of the domestic valve business, in the market economy conditions, especially after China's accession to the WTO, you think domestic enterprises should be in what areas, to participate in the global economic integration tide To go.

Secretary-General:

1. Enterprise strategic planning and scientific management

Strategic issues are related to a long-term survival and development of enterprises, develop a good business development strategy, is fully aware of their own and opponents, in the competition to avoid disadvantages. The use of scientific management, to the management to benefit is to maximize the use of enterprise resources. Management is the long-term business of the capital, in a sense, with efficient management mechanism of enterprises is the capital of the enterprise.

2. Technology and product quality

China is currently in the valve production, the basic to meet the 80% of the valve market demand, but the high technological content of products, high-tech products also rely on the majority of imports. Low pressure large diameter valve is slightly short, high and medium pressure valve production and demand contradiction mainly in varieties, materials and technical processes, such as offshore oil extraction, it requires high-quality valve, long life, such as West-East main channel large-diameter valve Deep, require all-welding process, so that life has reached decades, which is a high-tech valve and high quality is a rigorous test. We want to win the market to participate in competition must have this solid strength, in the technical and quality hard work.

3. Product variety, quantity and set of levels

60 years ago, China's valve varieties less, simply can not talk about the set of levels, but now China has been able to produce gate valve, globe valve, throttle valve, plug valve, ball valve, butterfly valve, diaphragm, check valve, Valves, traps and other valves and other 12 major categories, more than 3,000 models, more than 40,000 specifications of the valve products; which for China to improve the level of complete sets of lay the foundation, but the valve companies have to continuously strive for product variety, quantity and Set the level of innovation, improve our competitiveness.

4. Enterprise human resources development

Human resources development is an important part of the development of modern enterprise science and technology, enterprises can not develop talent, technology innovation can not be separated from talent. How to play the most energy of every employee in the enterprise is essential. The right people in the right place, so that employees have a sense of belonging, improve employee loyalty to the enterprise. Fully believe that each employee's ability to give them enough space to enhance the source of business innovation.

Face the market, innovation

Correspondents: domestic enterprises in the competition in addition to training internal strength, but also in the market economy environment to take what response?

Secretary-General:

1. To cultivate and improve the core competitiveness of enterprises

Enterprises from small to large, by the weak and strong key is to seize the cornerstone of business growth, have their own core technology, and give full play to their strengths better than their peers, innovative products to meet customers, to adapt to the market, with their strongest The ability to do the most effective work.

2. Actively participate in competition

In China's accession to the WTO today, competition is an inevitable reality, escape can only be eliminated, face competition is what we should take attitude, although China's valve business is still in the development stage, do not have strong competitiveness, but We should take appropriate strategies to avoid frontal engagement with the strong hand, damage our strength, and can grow in the competition.

3. Efforts to become experts in the development of standards and rules

To participate in the competition will understand the rules of competition, we should not be limited to participate in competition, know the rules, but also to actively participate in the development of standards and rules, to achieve this goal, we have a lot of work to do, but it is important that we Have such a sense. Continue to study the standard research rules, and in accordance with the specific circumstances of China to make reasonable views. Become an industry expert.

Correspondent: Just now you talk about to face the market, have their own core technology, you think China's valve business from this goal how long the way to go.

Secretary-General: The valve manufacturing industry has experienced the process of mass production from repair and manual sporadic processing to the use of special machine production lines, machining centers and CNC machine tools; product design from the initial use of the development of self-development design ; Product type from the low temperature and low pressure valve extended to high temperature and pressure, high pressure and high pressure all kinds of special valves, and a variety of materials, a variety of ways to drive a variety of special valves, with a considerable supporting capacity; the size of the industry Gradually expanded, forming a relatively perfect valve manufacturing system. But to participate in the international market competition but also have their own core competitiveness, both technology, management, personnel, services and performance. The first four can be improved through the study, the last one is to rely on user support, in this regard we hope that our entrepreneurs have the courage and courage. China's valve business to win in the major projects in the customer's trust must be different from the foreign business marketing, but also have a strong strength to compete with, I believe that the rapid growth and growing maturity of the Chinese valve business will be far In the future to achieve the Chinese people proud of this goal.

Correspondent: the arrival of knowledge-based economy, innovation in the enterprise development process to play what kind of role?

Health Secretary Jiang Zemin said that innovation is the soul of national progress, is the inexhaustible motive force of national prosperity, no innovation enterprises can not maintain long-term vitality, enterprise innovation is reflected in the mechanism of innovation, management innovation, technological innovation, product innovation. Xiong Peter believes that the inventor of technology is not necessarily the "innovator", only the kind of courage to take the risk of new inventions into the economy among the entrepreneurs is the innovator, only advocate and implement the "innovation" activities of the business operators is " entrepreneur". In the rapid development of network information society, a layer of the same thing does not exist, enterprises to develop, innovation is the source of power, only with this source of power to enterprises to a new level.

And they have long-term vision of the development of enterprises, as the state should encourage such entrepreneurs to support their bold reform, take the road of enterprise innovation, in the policy to give them concessions, to adopt a strategy to help the Chinese enterprises as soon as possible Grow up.

Correspondent: no competition in the market is immature market, there is competition on the success and failure, do you think the current Chinese valve enterprises should look at this issue.

Kang Secretary-General: competition can make a business to mature, and gradually grow and grow, but also make a business to perish, this is a thing two aspects. Depends on the enterprise to take what kind of measures and strategies, at present, China's valve enterprises and the world's developed countries compared to the valve business is still relatively weak period, we should use the technology to follow the strategy, and so on the overall level of our country to reach a certain capacity After that, we take a leap-style development, but this is not to allow individual enterprises to go in the forefront; in the management of advanced and summed up the management of China's national conditions to make it effective; in the strategic development of the enterprise's , In the long-term development plan, can not just look at the front, we should look long-term; in personnel, we should pay attention to cultivate their own talent for the future development of enterprise reserve reserve force.
