Leave a comment

SHANGHAI, Feb. 12, 2021 — Dada Group (Nasdaq: DADA) ("Dada" or the "Company"), China’s leading local on-demand delivery and retail platform, was invited to attend and share industry insights at Retail Week’s 2021 ‘Accelerating Ecommerce Week’ virtual event. As an expert in this area and the only Chinese representative, Dada Group’s general manager of product operations, Dora Guo took part in a panel focused on balancing final-mile profitability and productivity. She discussed Dada’s latest logistics and delivery innovations to reduce costs and improve efficiency.

Taking place entirely online, the two-day event hosted by Retail Week magazine is one of the retail industry’s most influential and prestigious annual forums. This year, the focus of the event was on how the retail industry landscape has changed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and how industry players around the world are responding and adapting to these new circumstances. Through a combination of panel discussions, an online networking mixer and master-class-style keynote presentations from industry experts representing companies including Ascential, Shopify and DLA Piper, participants discussed how to better attract and retain customers and drive value across their businesses.

Speaking on the panel, Ms. Guo said: "With the ‘Amazon effect’ leading to rising expectations from customers for faster delivery speeds, providing delivery efficiency while maintaining low operational costs has become an important way for retailers to provide differentiated services for their customers. Over the past six years, Dada Group has built a specified on-demand delivery system designed to optimize delivery time and provide exceptional service."

Dada Group successfully integrated Dada Now and JDDJ to develop a leading platform for local, on-demand delivery in China. Focused on supporting retailers and brand owners to connect online and offline sales systems, JDDJ, the largest on-demand retail platform in China’s supermarket segment, offers streamlined logistics solutions that can also assist in driving new online traffic and sales through O2O channels. For local delivery between merchants and individuals, Dada Now, the largest open on-demand delivery platform in China, offers effective and efficient solutions that allows for direct point-to-point and trackable distribution without having to rely on other third party vendors. Dada Group sees innovation as an integral part of business success and continues to focus on R&D to improve technical efficiency and customer value.

The Company’s focus on micro-ecommerce and last-mile delivery has positioned Dada Group for long-term partnerships with high-volume retailers. In June 2016, the Company signed a strategic partnership with Walmart to offer their stores in China access to last-mile delivery services. Since then, Dada Group has grown to become the exclusive provider of delivery services for the global retailer’s more than 400 stores across the country. Sam’s Club, a members-only retailer and part of the Walmart family, has also greatly benefited from its three-year partnership with Dada Now, which enables quick delivery on more than 1,000 products and has seen a tenfold increase in daily delivery order volume from a single warehouse. The collaboration with Sam’s Club is about providing exceptional customer service; Dada riders delivering from Sam’s Club are outfitted in customized cross-brand uniforms and are given specialized training. Additionally, through this partnership, Sam’s Club customers are able to receive orders before stores even open.

Throughout the panel, Ms. Guo discussed these partnerships and highlighted the role and value service providers like Dada Group bring to the table: "On-demand delivery from warehouses to consumers can be extremely complex with scattered demand, wild fluctuations in peak orders and a number of different delivery points. These problems can only be solved by relying on specialized technical applications utilizing big data and AI."

With the rise of social ecommerce, Dada Group looks to provide superior delivery support and coordination to credible key opinion leaders. Given the potential negative impact of a sudden influx of orders for single products on an unprepared individual or small team, Dada Group has developed applications to support O2O live streaming events and effectively bridge the gap between online and offline shopping experiences. The Company has also been involved in platform-exclusive marketing campaigns such as "Super Brand Day" to help brands expand their reach and provide customers with great deals.

About Dada Group

Dada Group is a leading platform of local on-demand retail and delivery in China. It operates JDDJ, one of China’s largest local on-demand retail platforms for retailers and brand owners, and Dada Now, a leading local on-demand delivery platform open to merchants and individual senders across various industries and product categories. The Company’s two platforms are inter-connected and mutually beneficial. The Dada Now platform enables improved delivery experience for participants on the JDDJ platform through its readily accessible fulfillment solutions and strong on-demand delivery infrastructure. Meanwhile, the vast volume of on-demand delivery orders from the JDDJ platform increases order volume and density for the Dada Now platform. In June 2020, Dada Group began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market, under the ticker symbol "DADA."

Japan’s ARM Co. Launches “ARMCODE1,” AI for Full Automation of NC Programming, for Limited Sale to China

Leave a comment

– ARM, Factory Automation Company, Realizes AI-based Smart Factory –

KANAZAWA, Japan, Feb. 3, 2021 — ARM Co., Ltd. (ARM) has begun taking pre-orders for "ARMCODE1," which can fully automate NC programming by AI, from Chinese users.

Photo1: https://kyodonewsprwire.jp/prwfile/release/M106467/202101280315/_prw_PI1fl_aUh7KJ25.jpg

Official site: http://www.armgroup.jp/en/index.html

Three biggest benefits of "ARMCODE1":

(1) Full automation of NC programming in the field of metal processing,

(2) A system of automatic quotation and machine status monitoring by mobile devices, which can accelerate digital transformation of small-lot production factories,

(3) ARM’s unique algorithm enabling highly accurate machining.

Photo3: https://kyodonewsprwire.jp/prwfile/release/M106467/202101280315/_prw_PI3fl_sUmJX04E.jpg

– Background for the birth of "ARMCODE1"

A few years ago, Takayuki Hirayama, founder and President of ARM, calculated the CNC machine utilization rate in his factory. He found that NC programming accounts for about 50% of the total processing time, and this process hinders productivity improvement at many SMEs, including his own company. By utilizing factory automation & processing technology cultivated in ARM, he has developed "ARMCODE1" in order to solve this problem peculiar to small and medium-sized parts manufacturers.

Photo4: https://kyodonewsprwire.jp/prwfile/release/M106467/202101280315/_prw_PI4fl_6kZM57J1.jpg

– Overview of "ARMCODE1"

Machining programs (G code/M code) are automatically generated by simply dropping 2D or 3D CAD data into the software-specified area. AI thereby selects the optimum machining conditions from thousands of types of tools and one million machining conditions, enabling high-precision machining. Characteristic functions of ARMCODE such as automated estimation and automatic calculation of the machine tool utilization rate also reduce the workload on the manager and help to thoroughly eliminate unprofitable work.

With this investment, we are advancing technological progress and taking a pioneering position in our region," said Mihin Shah, Chief Supply Chain officer of Landmark Group. The new distribution center is located in the Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA), close to DP WORLD Jebel Ali Port, one of the largest container ports in the world. From this location, the Landmark Group stores and distributes garments, furniture, toys, small goods and more to nearly 1,400 of its retail stores and thereafter directly to end consumers.

"Landmark presented us with an opportunity to go beyond consolidating their fulfillment operations to becoming a partner in transforming their business," said Hasan Dandashly, Dematic President and CEO. "They have experienced remarkable growth in a short amount of time to become one of the largest retailers in the Middle East, Africa, and India, supplying over 2,300 businesses in 24 countries. We take pride in being the kind of resource that Landmark would trust to streamline their operations both to meet current demand and prepare for future success."

A distinctive feature of the 265,000 sqm site is a pallet warehouse (43 meters high) with a silo design and up to 36,000 storage locations for receiving goods. Inventory not immediately needed for distribution are palletized, then stored and retrieved double-deep via four 41 meter stacker cranes (Model SR-U1500/1) with two telescopic forks. The climate-regulated high-bay warehouse stores temperature sensitive items and is equipped with a fire prevention system with an oxygen-reduced environment so even highly flammable goods can be stored.

The Dematic Multishuttle system handles faster moving goods with a patented Inter-Aisle Transfer feature that makes maximum use of space with aisle-spanning exchanges and double-deep storage. With several lifts per aisle and conductor rail-controlled shuttles for high performance acceleration and speed, one shuttle can serve between 700 and 800 storage locations. As a result, up to 15,000 totes per hour can be transported to the picking stations, making it the largest and fastest Dematic has ever installed. "With this distribution center, we have set a logistics benchmark for the entire Middle East," Shah said.

The facility also offers enormous capacities for hanging textiles: The Dematic GOH system can accommodate up to 2 million garments and can achieve high throughput rates of up to 250,000 items per day.

The overall solution has more than 200 workstations with specific applications, including value added services such as customizing goods for specific retailers by adding tags, branding or promotional offers. An 11-kilometer Dematic conveyor system for containers and pallets and a Dematic sortation system completes the operation.

Dematic iQ software ensures smooth and optimal material flow to meet delivery commitments Landmark makes to their retailers. The software operates as a Warehouse Management System (WMS) for stock management and includes a Warehouse Control System (WCS) and a Material Flow Controller (MFC). Goods are dynamically repositioned in four automated warehouse sections and the temperature-controlled manual warehouse, based on current and forecasted demand.

The Dematic iQ software also efficiently handles hanging and flat goods within a single system to meet customer requirements and desired sequencing. At the same time, the software ensures that the right product is at the right place at all times by balancing the workload among the subsystems. "Automation offers scalability and speed while at the same time improving work safety," Shah said. As a result of the consolidated and automated operation, Landmark’s B2B and B2C customers can now depend on even better service.
