Innovation is the eternal theme of social development, and it is also an important symbol of an enterprise in an invincible position in the market competition. I have carefully collected and sorted out successful enterprise innovation cases for you. Let's take a look.
successful enterprise innovation case 1
three high-tech products of an enterprise passed the appraisal of provincial scientific and technological achievements in one day. The independent innovation route of Qingdao Baxter FRP Co., Ltd. has created such a miracle. Our reporter Huo Feng
On August 6th, three innovative high-tech products of Qingdao Baxter FRP Co., Ltd., namely, FRP sand pipe, FRP manhole cover and FRP cable conduit, passed the scientific and technological achievement appraisal of Shandong Construction Department at the same time, and the technology and quality of the three products reached the domestic advanced level. Experts from the Provincial Construction Department who are familiar with the enterprise said that this is the fruit of Baxter's adherence to the independent innovation route.
Baxter Company is a high-tech enterprise devoted to the research, development and production of composite materials. Since its establishment, Baxter Company has determined the direction of independent research and development. They have developed a number of municipal construction materials with great influence at home and abroad in cooperation with famous universities in China, such as Wuhan University of Technology and East China University of Science and Technology. The unknown enterprises have become the leaders in the same industry in just two years.
innovative? Security cover?
The glass fiber reinforced plastic manhole cover that passed the appraisal of scientific and technological achievements is quite different from the cast iron Guli manhole cover that we often see on the road. The material used is lighter but harder than cast iron, and its service life is longer than that of cast iron, but its cost and price are generally lower than that of cast iron. The point is, it came true perfectly? Anti-theft Function.
Tian Hongjian, chief engineer of Baxter Company, told reporters that the idea of this innovative research and development first came from the frequent theft of cast iron Guli manhole covers. Tian Hongjian said that because the price of scrap iron is relatively high, the cast iron Guli manhole covers commonly used in municipal construction are often stolen. There are more than 4,111 sets of Guli covers stolen and damaged in Qingdao alone, and it costs more than 2 million yuan to repair one Guli cover in Qingdao every year. ? Can you make a Guli cover with glass fiber reinforced plastic, so that thieves lose interest in Guli cover? From the beginning of 2114, Tian Hongjian began to explore the technology of using FRP instead of cast iron to make Guli cover, and cooperated with experts from Wuhan University of Technology to carry out research and development experiments. In the spring of 2115, it was developed by Tian Hongjian? Glass fiber reinforced thermosetting resin manhole cover? It's out of the oven
the new guli cover is made of
composite material, and it is useless to steal it! ? Compared with cast iron, the new composite material used in the new Guligai has no recycling value, which cuts off the desire of thieves from the motive of committing crimes. In addition, according to Tian Hongjian, the load-bearing capacity of the Coulomb cover they produced is twice that of the ordinary Coulomb cover, and the product has undergone performance tests such as compression resistance and impact resistance. The roller weighing more than 51 tons rolls back and forth on two newly installed Coulomb covers, and there is nothing abnormal about the Coulomb cover. At the same time, with the current cast iron cover? Black face? In comparison, the color of the new Guli cover can be adjusted at will, and the cost is reduced by more than 31%, and the construction is more convenient. In September, 2115, the Coulomb cover produced by the company was first tried in Jinsong No.4 Road in Fushan New District. In February of that year, the anti-theft Coulomb cover was also used in the reconstruction of Hangzhou Road. A related person from the 113 Project Department of the Second Municipal Company said that the weight of the new cover is only over 51 kilograms, which is nearly half that of the cast iron cover, which brings great convenience to the construction and installation. At the same time, due to the use of composite materials, the new cover also has the advantages of wear resistance, corrosion resistance and low noise.
What excites Tian Hongjian even more is that this high-tech project has aroused the interest of Qingdao Hairun Water Supply Group, and both parties plan to jointly invest to build a new factory building with an annual output of 211,111 sets of Guliguai in Chengyang.
excellent? Middle water pipe?
As a product of sewage treatment, reclaimed water has now become a substitute for many kinds of water, such as urban green space irrigation, building flushing, industrial cooling, household toilet flushing and so on. However, the reclaimed water is corrosive to a certain extent, which has special requirements for the pipeline, and the glass fiber reinforced plastic sand pipe developed by Baxter Company is qualified for the reclaimed water transportation task.
Zhang Guangwu, the general manager of the company, told the reporter that this new type of pipe is a multi-layer resin-based composite pipe with thermosetting resin impregnated with glass fiber, and resin-impregnated quartz sand is added between the wrapped inner and outer glass fiber layers to form a sand layer. The product has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, sanitation and non-toxicity, smooth inner wall, heat resistance and frost resistance, light weight, high strength and heavy pressure, and is called an ideal urban water supply and drainage and chemical pipeline by the industry, especially suitable for the transportation of reclaimed water.
in order to produce this kind of product, Baxter company has specially developed a set of production lines with high technology content. The reporter saw at the scene that the mold of a large pipe was constantly tumbling on the bracket, and several < P > ten lines made of various materials were wrapped around it. The scene was like weaving. In less than half an hour, a pipe with a diameter of several tens of centimeters and a length of several tens of meters was wound, which made people marvel at it. According to reports, the largest diameter of such resin pipes can reach 1.81 cm. Zhang Guangwu said that this is the power of science and technology.
magical? Protective tube?
Baxter company and the above two scientific and technological achievements have passed the appraisal at the same time, and its FRP cable protection tube. This new type of pipe, which is also made of resin-based composite materials and developed by winding method, solves the problem of electric loss in some power lines, and is called? Protective tube? .
Tian Hongjian said that especially in rural power grids, the capacity of some distribution transformers does not adapt to the load of transmission lines, and the metering sensitivity of metering devices equipped according to the transformer capacity is relatively reduced when the load current is small, which leads to high power loss and low-voltage line loss in rural areas. After a lot of data collection, technical analysis and economic comparison, Baxter Company decided to use FRP cable protection tube as a substitute product for cable protection tube. They organized experts and technicians to make bold innovations in the production equipment and technology of FRP cable protection tube, achieved technology introduction and independent research and development, and produced a new type of power pipe FRP cable protection tube with many advantages, such as good insulation, high strength, light weight, no deformation, smooth inner surface, no electric corrosion, good water resistance, simple construction and so on. At present, this product has been put on the market and widely used.
It is precisely because of these independent innovative products that Baxter Company has risen rapidly and impressed its domestic counterparts, and its development potential has accumulated very strongly. Zhang Guangwu said that the enterprise has occupied more than 1,111 mu of land in Chengyang's export processing zone and is preparing to build an industrial park. Of course, independent innovation is still the main line of industrial park development.
successful enterprise innovation case 2: Hangzhou VS Bangalore? The soil of innovation
Bangalore? The world's largest software outsourcing base, the famous? South Asia Silicon Valley? .
The Economist, the most influential financial magazine in the world, published in early March, published a group of planning reports about China and India, making an interesting comparison between Hangzhou and Bangalore. The report said that they have similar population, environment and university resources, and are equally attractive to high-tech companies, while Hangzhou has obviously shown higher efficiency in airport infrastructure construction?
who introduced Hangzhou to The Economist is the largest exporter of software services in India? Mr. Rrajanna, Head of Global R&D Center of Tata Information Technology Company in Hangzhou High-tech Zone and General Manager of Tata China.
It is this Mr. Regina who recently wrote a letter to the leaders of the High-tech Zone, thanking the government for awarding the management innovation award of 511,111 yuan to Tata Hangzhou R&D Center. The R&D Center won this award because it became the first enterprise in China to obtain both CMMI and PCMM Level 5 (the highest level of software development and human resource management certification in the world). Regina said that he flew from India to receive the award. Tata has so many branches all over the world, but it was the first time that it was commended by the government for its innovation in enterprise management. Money is not important, but spiritual encouragement is enormous.
Coincidentally, UT Starcom, which is now well-known, was a family in a back alley a few years ago? Playing tricks? Many people have seen it for the first time? PHS? Everyone shook their heads: can this gadget become a climate? However, governments at all levels, from the provincial to the municipal to the district, have shown great favor to this foreign student venture, and supported it to take the first step in starting a business.
respecting knowledge and talents will bring rich returns when the flowers of innovation bloom. After the success, UT Starcom set up a communication company and a global R&D center in the High-tech Zone, with a cumulative investment of more than 1 billion yuan in Hangzhou so far.
Hong Hangyong, Party Secretary of High-tech Zone (Binjiang), said: Should High-tech Zone be built? Digital Zhejiang? The vanguard, build? Paradise Silicon Valley? The main battlefield. What is the success of Silicon Valley? By innovation. Improving the ability of independent innovation is the central link of transforming the mode of economic growth, and it is also the soul of high-tech zones. Only by creating a soil of innovation through service innovation, management innovation and system innovation can we promote technological innovation of enterprises.
here, a few computers, a few clever heads and a brilliant idea can register and run a company, and the high-tech zone innovation service center has been set up specially? Software professional incubator? For more than 231 enterprises, office space and broadband equipment were provided free of charge in the initial stage, and more than 11 million yuan was provided for application and supporting? Seed money? National Innovation Fund.
It is this seemingly unremarkable free rent and support fund with an amount of no less than RMB
1.111111, which enabled the enterprise to survive the initial period when it could not even pay its salary, and started the explosive growth unique to high-tech enterprises. Today, 95% of the peak-valley meters and their embedded chips installed in Zhejiang households come from an enterprise hatched here, and the first enterprise in China to put biometric fingerprint authentication into industrialization also comes from? Software incubator
Here, a high-speed optical fiber? Public service and technical support platform? It extends from high-tech zone to more than 41 buildings and more than 311 enterprises in the city. Different from the broadband network that people usually contact, this is a special network for small and medium-sized software enterprises. In the past, small enterprises often bought pirated software development tools because of lack of money. Now this platform is hung with Microsoft genuine development software purchased in the form of group procurement, just like an open online library, which enterprises can borrow at any time; In the past, enterprises were small in scale and only dared to undertake software development projects with a million dollars, but in the future, the public service platform will gather many small and medium-sized enterprises into one? Fleet? * * * undertakes orders of tens of millions of dollars or more, and then carries out distribution and collaborative development with the help of the public platform.
here, the high-tech investment guarantee company provides nearly 1 billion yuan of financing guarantee for small and medium-sized technology enterprises with market and lack of mortgage.
here, the hi-tech zone has set up Microsoft Software College, Cisco Network College and various development laboratories in collaboration with world-renowned IT enterprises and Zhejiang universities to deepen cooperation in Industry-University-Research and provide various personnel training and consulting services.
Here, a logistics service center has been set up in Hi-tech Zone to provide hotel-style services such as accommodation, catering and laundry for employees of high-tech enterprises flying around like migratory birds.
successful enterprise innovation case 3
both apple and 3M are good at it? Breakthrough innovation? . Apple's breakthrough innovation is very strong, but it relies too much on individuals. The innovation of 3M Company is more dependent on organization, culture and system.
the core concepts of 3m company are: respecting individual initiative; Innovation: You must not stifle the creativity of a new product; Tolerate honest mistakes; It is better to seek tolerance than to wait for approval.
3M company has a good idea of innovation, so it is not short of innovative culture. However, in the mid-1991s, the number of breakthrough innovative products of 3M decreased obviously, so it is not enough to have culture. 3M company thinks it is a problem of methods. 3M Company has set a challenging goal, requiring 31% of its sales to come from products that did not exist four years ago. According to the original? Spontaneous emergence? Method, it is difficult to achieve the goal, and the innovative method itself needs innovation. We are familiar with the methods of sustained innovation. Can breakthrough innovation also be used? Methodological? And? The way of breakthrough innovation is different from that of sustained innovation, so it should be changed. You can't just listen to the voices of existing customers or R&D personnel stay in the house and think hard. This method is the lead user method.
after observation, 3m company has made two important discoveries: many initial ideas and prototypes of products are made by users, not manufacturers. It is further found that it is not ordinary users who develop these products, but? Lead user? (Lead Users)? Those? Ahead of the market trend, far higher than the needs of ordinary users? Enterprises, organizations or individuals.
For example, the automobile anti-lock braking system, its creativity and solution comes from the fighter's braking system. The fighter's requirements for anti-lock braking system are much higher than those of the automobile, because if it is locked, the machine will be destroyed and people will die, and the loss will be great. So lead user is not necessarily your industry, but maybe other industries, and the problems in that industry may be much more extreme than your industry, and the urgency of solving the problems is much stronger. That's how the brake system came out.
lead user is not an early buyer in the usual sense. Even before the new products came out, lead user encountered similar problems and solved them by itself. Therefore, it is very important to make a breakthrough innovation and collect what information from whom. Most enterprises listen to the needs of existing major customers, and the innovation made in this way must be sustainable. Breakthrough innovation looks for lead user, including two categories: one is the frontier customers in the target market, and the other is the customers in other markets facing similar problems, but the problems are more extreme. The content of collecting information is not only requirements, but also solutions. So, who is my lead user? How to find them? For example:
A medical imaging equipment manufacturer, the task of the R&D team is to develop an imaging diagnostic equipment that can detect early cancer. Early cancer was very small, and the products on the market at that time could not clearly show such a small cancer. To find very small early cancer, it was generally accepted at that time that the method was to improve the definition of imaging equipment.
they first use grid search to find out the most advanced experts in the field of medical imaging equipment, and then contact these experts and tell the expert R&D team that they want to solve the problem (that is? Find early cancer? ) and make a request at the same time? Ask experts to recommend academic frontier figures and practice pioneers in the field of image display, not necessarily in the medical field.
So, these experts recommended some cutting-edge researchers in the image display field of the Air Force, because the Air Force also needs to accurately distinguish the targets on the ground when carrying out bombing missions, such as which is a stone and which is a missile.
