Riding the wind of rebirth

With this as a start, Zhou Zhi began to explain engineering quality management and process quality control, focusing on the process quality management system suitable for the aerospace industry that was integrated with modern information technology, the Western ISO quality system, and China's own military industry system.

This is actually a complex system. The underlying hardware support is the computing power matrix, and on top of it is the simulation algorithm, which simulates the computing power matrix into a virtual medium-sized computer. On top of that is the COSTS operating system based on the TS application architecture, and on top of that is the final application - the process quality management system.

To put it bluntly, modern management is far more detailed and complex than before, and it can only be achieved by relying on advanced computer technology.

If we rely solely on the old file transfer method to complete this kind of management work, then everyone will have nothing to do, and even if we have three times more people to manage it, it will still be impossible to handle it.

In other words, the work performed by a management link now is actually several times or even dozens of times the work performed by a management link in the past. It is just that a large amount of automation has been achieved through information technology, which has greatly reduced the management cost.

On this basis, a management system that is far more stringent than the previous military-industrial system and ISO system was established and implemented, and people also felt that their workload was reduced.

Corresponding to this is efficient output, strict management, accurate supervision, timely discovery and reasonable handling.

Zhou Zhi was an expert in his previous life. In this life, he has experienced the tempering of so many large systems and projects. Of course, his level is even higher. It is not just limited to engineering quality management. After experiencing all aspects of enterprise management, he has gained more experience in engineering process quality control management.

For example, the completeness and timeliness of a system and its feasibility in actual operations are often contradictory.

For example, the rigidity and dogmatism of the system will often make a good system become a formality and a burden.

Therefore, as the system creators, we must take into account the "self-evolution" of these systems. That is, at the beginning of system design, we need to design channels for communication between users and designers, and we also need to design approval and execution channels for timely modification of the system.

This is actually both a part of functional design and a part of management work. As a manager, you must implement this idea into system design so that the system has such "awareness" rather than simple mechanical and rigid operations.

Making the system humane rather than mechanizing people is the key to designing a management system.

Because the audience are all academicians, who are generally not simple science and engineering professionals, but also managers of cutting-edge topics in their respective industries, Zhou Zhi's starting point for lectures is relatively high, a bit like "sitting and discussing" with everyone. After only a general explanation of the system architecture, he focused the topic on the design ideas of the system.

Such courses are actually very important. Although many private enterprises and even state-owned enterprises have gradually begun to introduce modern enterprise management mechanisms and have also exerted great vitality, they often know the results but not the reasons.

For example, Guan Dabin, who is now the manager of Heheng Convenience Store, only knows that after the introduction of the group's convenience store management system, the management of large shopping malls has become easier. For logistics, distribution and other tasks that previously required a team of dozens of people, now only two or three people are needed to complete the work.

He can see the immediate benefits that "high technology" brings to the enterprise, but often overlooks that these "high technologies" are actually for more advanced management. The upgrade of management model is actually the real core of this change, and "high technology" only makes this previously unimplementable management method feasible. Managers who directly face life and death in the market often lack such awareness, and managers of scientific research sites and scientific research projects who do not directly face the market have even less awareness in this regard.

Fortunately, the Xichang Satellite Base had already prepared a model, and the maintenance and emergency response system supported by this system just happened to work at the critical moment. Even when one satellite exploded, the remaining satellite was sent to the predetermined orbit and successfully started working, directly saving the country hundreds of millions of dollars in losses.

Not only that, this unique capability of China's aerospace industry not only shocked the world but also restored its reputation. This system immediately attracted the attention of industry leaders.

The veteran academicians also listened with great interest. They are all science people, and Zhou Zhi's course today, except for the introduction to the system architecture at the beginning, the rest of the course was all about management. Many of the contents were what they had already clearly felt in their daily work, but had not yet reached the level where they could extract theories.

Now Zhou Zhi has broken the window paper for them, with the goal of changing their ideas and giving them a sudden enlightenment.

Management is a kind of labor, a high-level labor, a labor that, in addition to technology, can greatly improve labor productivity.

The discussion started from this perspective, combined with the effects that can be achieved by the process quality control system, and finally listed the specific points of the entire rocket engineering management, the systems that need to be followed, the supervision process path nodes, the re-inspection nodes and other statistical data, which gave all those who came to the lecture the most intuitive impression.

Before this system was established, no matter how meticulous the management was, it could not have been achieved to this extent. No matter how responsible the management was, it could not have been as flawless as it is now.

In order to avoid becoming a formality, outputs need to be provided at many key points. For example, multiple signatures are required for entry and exit of the warehouse, and an electronic signature system is used for control. In short, it not only meets the need for streamlining, but also has multiple means to complete the supervision requirements.

Zhou Zhi finally talked about these management details: "I believe every unit has a process management system, but whether the process management system has been fully implemented is the biggest problem."

"The previous management method often emphasized the issue repeatedly in meetings beforehand, but due to the lack of supervision, this emphasis became a formality. Afterwards, new systems were formulated. This led to the final system being 'over-formulated' and even more difficult to implement."

"What we just talked about can be called 'Tao', and the node control we are demonstrating now can be called 'technique'. Only when the two are combined can it be called management science. Our country has indeed neglected this area in the past, but there is one advantage, that is, it is still in a value trough, and each enterprise and unit still has great potential to tap."

"By introducing a modern management system, we can implement a comprehensive and systematic transformation in all aspects, including the management of producers, production materials and tools, production processes, production methods, product distribution, and finance. I believe that all units can make greater contributions."

Everyone couldn't help but applaud, expressing their admiration and support for Zhou Zhi's class. (End of this chapter)
