Build a 100-billion-yuan-class iron and steel cloud commerce platform. As a typical case of "chain-type" digital transformation recognized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People's Republic of China, the Zhongxinlian Cloud Commerce Platform is an intelligent iron and steel supply chain e-commerce platform integrating functions such as industrial product supermarket, matchmaking transactions, online bidding and tendering, transaction settlement, logistics and distribution, data information, and marketing promotion. It reshapes and guides the entire business processes of enterprise supply chains through digital technologies, addressing pain points such as fragmented procurement demands, low procurement efficiency, and opaque processes, improving procurement and transaction efficiency, and reducing procurement costs through large-scale procurement. Launched for trial operation in August 2019, the platform has listed a total of more than 240,000 types of metallurgical raw materials and spare parts, with 6,224 registered users distributed across nearly 200 cities and regions nationwide. As of January 1, 2026, the total transaction volume of the Zhongxinlian Cloud Commerce Platform has reached RMB 287.6 billion; together with the Today's Iron & Steel Platform, it has helped enterprises reduce costs and increase efficiency by a cumulative total of RMB 940 million.
Construct an iron and steel shared service ecosystem. With the tenet of providing professional and timely information references for metallurgical practitioners and facilitating the green, low-carbon and high-quality development of the iron and steel industry, Today's Iron & Steel is a public service platform for the iron and steel industry integrating functions including metallurgical industry dynamics, policy interpretation, market trends, metallurgical encyclopedia, talent recruitment, and online transactions. Up to now, the total number of users of the Today's Iron & Steel Platform has exceeded 2 million. The Today's Iron & Steel Industry Public Service Platform was officially launched in July 2022, and as of January 2026, its transaction volume has exceeded RMB 10.3 billion. Since 2023, it has helped settled enterprises achieve an average monthly efficiency gain of nearly RMB 3 million. Among its features, the bidding transaction module leverages "Internet Plus" technological means and integrates three functions: sales, tendering, and procurement. The transaction scope covers the sales of waste materials, non-standard steel products, and by-products, as well as centralized procurement services for raw materials, fuels, auxiliary materials, and spare parts. To date, more than ten iron and steel enterprises have settled on the platform and conducted transactions. The platform has cumulatively certified over 1,000 settled purchasers, and the auctioned goods cover dozens of types of metallurgical green renewable resources such as waste materials, reusable steel products, and by-products, effectively revitalizing the idle waste assets of iron and steel enterprises.
01
Develop Core Industrial Software
Based on the existing iron and steel industry's process improvement, value excavation, function enhancement and green development, the company helps customers realize digital management of factory-level and production line-level equipment. It has successively developed products such as the access control reservation mini-program, Xinda Home APP, environmental protection monitoring platform, access control management system, smart wearable system, EAM system (Enterprise Asset Management System), EMS system (Energy Management System), ERP system (Enterprise Resource Planning System), and LWS system (Unmanned Weighing System), delivering high-quality and efficient technical support and operation and maintenance services for software and hardware deployment.
02
