EnglishRecently, Zhejiang Kaihang Materials Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Kaihang Materials") and DingTalk officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Hangzhou. The two parties will join forces to promote the deep integration of artificial intelligence technology with commodity trading operations, jointly exploring new models for intelligent industrial transformation. The ceremony was witnessed by Hua Yu, Chairman of Kaihang Materials; Zhang Kai, General Manager of Kaihang Materials; Ma Lijun, Vice President of DingTalk; and Chen Weimian, General Manager of DingTalk's East China Region.
As the core enterprise of Ningbo Development & Investment Group in the commodity sector, Kaihang Materials has long focused on the operation of ferrous metal commodities such as steel raw materials and steel products, and has developed into a leading comprehensive industrial service provider in East China. The company's annual trade volume exceeds 10 billion RMB, with business covering the entire supply chain—from supply chain management and cross-border transactions to warehousing and logistics—and boasts a solid industry foundation and extensive operational capabilities.
Breaking Traditional Bottlenecks: Building a Smart Operations Platform Together
Commodity trading is characterized by frequent transactions, large capital flows, and volatile markets. In practice, it often faces challenges such as insufficient contract risk management, delayed data transmission, and decision-making heavily reliant on individual experience. Traditional information systems struggle to meet rapidly changing business needs. Leveraging its low-code platform combined with the flexible architecture of AI Agents, DingTalk can quickly integrate core processes such as contract management, financial settlement, and project tracking. At the same time, relying on its open ecosystem, DingTalk can also help Kaihang Materials connect upstream and downstream partners, creating an efficient collaborative industrial network and injecting digital momentum into overall operations.
Focusing on Three Key Areas to Deepen Intelligent Upgrades
Based on shared consensus and vision, the two parties will focus on advancing cooperation across three key areas to help the company achieve deep transformation.
First, they will jointly build a dedicated collaboration platform called "Digital Intelligence Kaihang" to reshape work patterns in the AI era. By introducing intelligent tools in scenarios such as contract review, financial processing, project management, and knowledge management, repetitive tasks for employees will be reduced, freeing up creativity and productivity.
Second, they will jointly develop a vertical large model tailored for the bulk trading sector. Combining DingTalk's technological strength with Kaihang Materials' years of accumulated industry experience, the two sides will tackle pain points in the industry, including risk early warning, real-time pricing, logistics route optimization, and buyer-seller matching, thereby enhancing overall operational efficiency.
Third, they will actively promote ecosystem integration, driving digital collaboration across the upstream and downstream of the industry chain, demonstrating best practices, and spurring the digitization process of the entire commodity industry.
In his remarks at the signing ceremony, Hua Yu, Chairman of Kaihang Materials, pointed out:
Embracing the AI wave is a must for the sustainable development of enterprises. This collaboration with DingTalk is not just an update of the system platform—it represents a fundamental shift in our operating mindset. The launch of 'Digital Intelligence Kaihang' will free the team from tedious administrative work, allowing them to focus on strategic planning and value creation, which is a crucial step toward enhancing market competitiveness.
Ma Lijun, Vice President of DingTalk, stated:
We will fully leverage DingTalk's strengths in technology and product design to help Kaihang Materials build a smart office environment that meets the demands of the AI era. We look forward to transforming Kaihang's deep expertise in the ferrous metals sector into replicable and scalable intelligent solutions, providing the industry with a clear and viable path for digital transformation.
In the context of increasingly fierce global economic competition, the partnership between DingTalk and Kaihang Materials not only brings innovative momentum to the mainland's commodity industry but also marks a shift in the industry—from a past model that relied on scale expansion—to a new stage of high-quality development driven by technology, outlining a fresh direction for the future industrial blueprint.
