Recently, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the "Opinions on Fully, Accurately, and Comprehensively Implementing the New Development Philosophy to Achieve Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality." This opinion provides clear guidance and requirements for achieving the goals of carbon peak and carbon neutrality, helping enterprises overcome the difficulties of lean production. The adjustment of the carbon neutrality policy aims to reduce the proportion of fossil energy, significantly develop renewable energy, and thereby promote lean production in enterprises. Therefore, the transformation of the energy landscape and the development of lean production are inevitable trends.
At the same time, the carbon peak and carbon neutrality policies will restructure the overall development landscape of the manufacturing industry. All current industries will shift from being overly dependent on resources to true manufacturing attributes. Many non-value-adding working methods in factories hinder the development of lean production. Taking the automotive industry as an example, to achieve the carbon neutrality goal within the specified time, enterprises responsible for vehicle assembly and all links providing various parts and raw materials for assembly must achieve carbon neutrality, creating a new standard across the entire industrial chain.

The year 2021 holds crucial significance as a node in the era. As the starting year of the "14th Five-Year Plan" and a key year for post-pandemic development, its role as a bridge between the past and the future is self-evident. The manufacturing industry is also going through a painful transition period, shifting from mid-to-low end to mid-to-high end, and from production-oriented manufacturing to service-oriented manufacturing. This process will inevitably be accompanied by the decline of many high-energy-consuming enterprises, while digitalization will deeply integrate with manufacturing. Lean production in manufacturing must shift from its previous over-reliance on material resources in the production process to providing better, higher-quality solutions and services to consumers or users, thereby further enhancing the competitiveness, innovation capability, and profitability of the manufacturing industry itself.
Against this era background, Alps System Integration (Dalian) Co., Ltd. has been deeply engaged in industrial IoT development research for many years. The company strives to continuously expand various acquisition or control sensors or controllers with perception, monitoring, and management capabilities, as well as ubiquitous technologies, communications, mobile internet, intelligent analysis, and other technologies, integrating them into all aspects of manufacturing production.
Alps System Integration (Dalian) Co., Ltd. improves the production efficiency of manufacturing enterprises by providing IoT solution services that connect the on-site elements of human, machine, material, method, environment, and measurement with information systems. It uses process optimization during production to improve product quality. For example, through equipment monitoring management, it fundamentally reduces production costs; lean production uses systems to manage energy in the production environment to reduce resource consumption during production; and through further industrial safety production management, it achieves industrial intelligence, meeting the development requirements of industrial IoT, and helping manufacturing enterprises fulfill the era mission of "carbon peak and carbon neutrality" with quality and quantity guaranteed.
For Chinese enterprises to widely apply lean production, they need to be driven by a new set of green industrial technologies, using large-scale, systematic transformation technologies. For manufacturing enterprises, there are several key elements to achieve lean production: First, high technological content and high productivity within the industry, with technological improvement being crucial. Second, achieving low or even zero emissions during the production process. Finally, compared to traditional enterprises, having competitiveness with low cost and high net value. Measures such as promoting smart manufacturing, industrial internet, and digital transformation can more effectively lead the production system to achieve energy savings, realize the goals of "carbon peak and carbon neutrality," and thereby help enterprises implement lean production. Alps System Integration (Dalian) Co., Ltd. will continue to gather strength for the transformation and upgrading of manufacturing, mining customers' potential needs, thereby enhancing customer product value.
