The State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) has approved and released the national standard "Intelligent Manufacturing — Business Management Specification for Intelligent Factories in Process Industries," which will take effect on May 1, 2027. The process industry is a foundational sector of the national economy, covering fields such as petrochemicals, steel, pharmaceuticals, building materials, non-ferrous metals, and food processing, and is characterized by continuous production, high process coupling, and relatively high safety risks. At present, process industry enterprises face challenges in building intelligent factories, including inconsistent management frameworks, insufficient system collaboration, difficulty in data sharing, and inadequate alignment between technology application and management needs. Drawing on the characteristics of the process industry, this standard sets out systematic requirements for the main business activities of intelligent factories.
