COSMOPlat

COSMOPlat, an industrial internet platform developed by Haier Group, was initiated in 2017. This initiative is spearheaded by Chairman and CEO, Zhou Yunjie, who also serves as a representative to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. The platform emerged from Haier's own extensive manufacturing and management experience, representing a strategic pivot towards industrial digital transformation services. COSMOPlat functions as an open, multi-sided platform designed to facilitate the digital transformation of enterprises across various sectors, including manufacturing, agriculture, and healthcare.

The core of its business is to provide industrial internet solutions that connect users, developers, and businesses, creating an ecosystem for co-creation and value sharing. The platform's business model is centered around offering a suite of services and solutions, such as mass customization, intelligent manufacturing, and digital supply chain management, to its enterprise clients. Revenue is generated by providing these technology-enabled services, which allow companies to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and shift towards more user-centric production models. COSMOPlat serves a wide range of clients, from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to large corporations, helping them to navigate the complexities of digitalization.

The platform's service offerings are comprehensive, built upon an architecture that includes platform as a service (PaaS), software as a service (SaaS), and infrastructure as a service (IaaS) layers. It provides tools for mass customization, allowing consumers to participate directly in the product design process. Its intelligent manufacturing capabilities enable predictive maintenance, automated production lines, and quality control. Furthermore, the platform offers solutions for network collaboration and service extension, helping businesses to optimize their operations and develop new service-based revenue streams. A distinct feature is its emphasis on the user-centric, mass customization model, which empowers both consumers and manufacturers in a collaborative ecosystem.
