"Zhiqi Cloud Chain" platform officially launched, bridging the "last mile" of digital transformation for SMEs

Beijing, February 11, 2026 — Today, the "Smart Enterprise Cloud Chain" integrated service platform, jointly launched by leading domestic software service and system integrator "Digital Intelligence Technology" along with multiple industry associations and cloud service providers, officially commenced operations. The platform aims to systematically address core challenges faced by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) during their digital transformation, such as "high technical barriers, substantial capital investment, and difficulties in operation and maintenance management," through standardized, modular, and low-cost solutions. This marks the entry of digital transformation services for SMEs into a new "plug-and-play" stage.

Focus on the Innovation of Integrated and Lightweight Service Models.

For a long time, the level of informatization among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in China has been uneven, with common issues such as data silos, fragmented processes, and a shortage of IT talent. Traditional system integration projects often involve high levels of customization, long cycles, and significant costs, which deter many SMEs. While lightweight applications like mini-programs can address some front-end marketing needs, they struggle to support the digital transformation of core business processes.

The launch of the "Zhi Qi Yun Lian" platform is a precise response to this market gap. This platform is not a single software product but a digital service marketplace that integrates "SaaS-based software services, a pre-integrated solution library, visual development tools, and an ecosystem partner connector." Its core innovation lies in:

1. "Lego-style" modular integrationThe platform breaks down common enterprise applications such as ERP, CRM, OA, supply chain management, and mini-program stores into hundreds of standardized functional modules. Based on their industry characteristics (e.g., retail, manufacturing, services) and growth stages, enterprises can independently drag and combine these modules through a visual interface to create a "personalized" system tailored to their needs. This significantly reduces the complexity and cost of custom development.
2. "One-stop" data integrationThe platform features a built-in unified data middle platform and API gateway, ensuring seamless data flow and business collaboration among SaaS applications from different sources, legacy on-premise systems, and newly developed mini-programs, fundamentally addressing the issue of information silos.
3. Subscription-based universal serviceWith a flexible monthly/annual subscription payment model and comprehensive managed services covering deployment, training, and operation, small and medium-sized enterprises can now access complete digital capabilities—previously exclusive to large corporations—at a predictable and lower cost.

At the press conference, the CEO of Digital Intelligence Technology stated, "The goal of 'Smart Enterprise Cloud Chain' is to become the 'water, electricity, and gas' for the digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises. We not only provide tools but also build a thriving ecosystem, enabling professional ISVs (Independent Software Vendors), developers, and consulting service providers to offer high-value services to SMEs on this platform."

Impact Analysis: Reshaping Industry Landscape, Empowering Small and Medium-sized Enterprises

The launch of the "Zhiqi Yunlian" platform is expected to have a profound impact on multiple related fields.

• Software Services and Development IndustryPromote the shift in development models from a "project-based" approach to a "product-oriented and ecosystem-driven" approach. Small and medium-sized software developers can focus on creating high-quality functional modules for vertical industries, leveraging the platform to quickly reach a vast customer base and lowering the barriers to market entry.
• System Integration IndustryTraditional integrators, which primarily focus on hardware and customized projects, will face pressure to transform. Platforms have given rise to a new service role—the "Digital Solutions Architect"—whose focus shifts from underlying technology integration to streamlining enterprise business processes and designing modular solutions based on the platform, thereby elevating the value of their services.
• On the Mini Program Development MarketMini-programs are no longer just marketing tools; they serve as a crucial entry point for corporate digitalization, deeply integrated with backend core business systems (via platforms). Their development needs will increasingly focus on seamless integration with overall business workflows, driving the evolution of mini-program development toward more advanced enterprise-level applications.
• For small and medium-sized enterprisesThe most direct beneficiaries. The decision-making risks, technological risks, and financial pressures associated with digital transformation are significantly reduced, enabling a more agile approach to trial and error, rapid improvement in operational efficiency and market competitiveness, and accelerated integration into the wave of the digital economy.

Future Outlook: Platformization and Ecosystemization Will Become the Mainstream Service Paradigm

The emergence of "Zhiqi Cloud Chain" marks a critical signal of maturity in the SME informatization service market. Looking ahead, the industry is expected to exhibit the following trends:

1. Intensified platform competitionIt is anticipated that more industry giants and leaders in vertical sectors will build similar open platforms, with the focus of competition shifting from single product features to ecosystem richness, data security compliance, and deep industry understanding.
2. Low-code/No-code and Professional Development IntegrationThe visual tools provided by the platform will empower "citizen developers" within enterprises to handle a large volume of standardized, lightweight needs, while complex and personalized core logic will still be handled by professional developers. Collaboration between the two on the platform will become the norm.
3. "Digital Supply Chain" Takes ShapeThe platform will connect software providers, hardware manufacturers, cloud infrastructure, distributors, and end-user enterprises, forming an efficient digital service supply chain to achieve optimal global resource allocation.
4. Policy-driven and StandardizedAs such platforms deepen their penetration into industrial digitalization, relevant standards for data interconnection, security, and industry service norms are expected to accelerate their introduction, laying the foundation for the healthy and orderly development of the industry.

Experts believe that 2026 may become the "first year of universal access" for the digital transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises. Platform-based service models, represented by "Smart Enterprise Cloud Chain," are expected to truly bridge the "last mile" that hinders SMEs from embracing digitalization, injecting strong digital momentum into the high-quality development of the real economy.
