Through the above analysis, we can ensure that the AI ​​large model base project can closely meet the actual needs of the enterprise and lay a solid foundation for subsequent technology selection and implementation.

2.1 Analysis of the current status of enterprises

At present, enterprises are at a critical stage of digital transformation. Traditional business models can no longer fully meet market demand, especially in data-driven decision-making, intelligent operations and personalized services. The existing IT system architecture of enterprises is relatively scattered, with serious information islands and low data integration, resulting in low efficiency in collaboration between business departments and difficulty in responding to market changes quickly. Although enterprises have introduced some digital tools, their functions are relatively single and cannot form an overall solution. In addition, the data interaction and integration capabilities between different systems are weak, which limits the depth and breadth of data analysis.

From a technical perspective, the existing infrastructure of enterprises is mainly based on traditional servers and local deployment. The application of cloud computing and big data technology is still in its early stages, with low resource utilization efficiency, making it difficult to support large-scale data processing and AI model training needs. In addition, the data governance system of enterprises has not yet been perfected, data quality is uneven, and there is a lack of unified metadata management and data standards, which has brought great challenges to subsequent data analysis and AI applications.

In terms of talent and team, although enterprises have a certain number of technical personnel, their professional capabilities in cutting-edge technology fields such as AI, big data and cloud computing are relatively insufficient, and they lack high-end talents with interdisciplinary knowledge and practical experience, resulting in a slow pace of technological innovation and application. At the same time, there are differences in the strategic cognition of digital transformation within enterprises, and some business departments have a low acceptance of new technologies, which makes cross-departmental collaboration and resource integration more difficult.

The following is a summary of the key pain points of the current enterprise situation:

• The phenomenon of information islands is serious and data integration is low, which affects the efficiency of business collaboration;
• Traditional IT architecture cannot support large-scale data processing and AI application requirements;
• The data governance system is imperfect and the data quality is uneven, which affects the analysis effect;
• Insufficient technical talent reserves, especially in the fields of AI and big data;
• There is no unified understanding of digital transformation strategies, and cross-departmental collaboration is difficult.

In response to the above problems, it is urgently necessary to build an AI big model base to achieve a comprehensive upgrade of the existing system, create an efficient, flexible and intelligent data-driven platform, and provide strong technical support for the digital transformation of enterprises.

2.2 Demand for digital transformation

In addition, using Internet of Things (IoT) technology, companies can develop smart products and services to open up new sources of revenue.

In short, the digital transformation needs of enterprises are multifaceted, involving multiple levels such as technology, process, personnel and strategy. Through comprehensive and in-depth transformation, enterprises can not only improve existing operational efficiency, but also capture new growth opportunities and ensure continuous competitive advantage.

2.3 Business process optimization requirements

In the context of digital transformation, business process optimization is a key link for enterprises to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance competitiveness. Through the AI ​​big model base project, enterprises can achieve intelligent reconstruction and optimization of existing business processes. First of all, it is necessary to comprehensively sort out the existing business processes and identify redundant links, efficiency bottlenecks, and potential risk points in the processes. For example, in the supply chain management process, there may be problems such as manual data entry and delayed information transmission, resulting in overall inefficiency.

By introducing AI big models, these repetitive, low-value-added tasks such as data collection, classification, and analysis can be automated, thereby reducing human errors and improving processing speed and accuracy. At the same time, AI big models can predict demand fluctuations, inventory shortages, and other problems in the supply chain through the analysis of historical data and real-time data, and provide optimization suggestions to help companies make decisions in advance.

In the corporate procurement process, AI big models can automatically generate the best procurement plan through deep learning of data such as supplier historical performance and market supply and demand relationships. This can not only reduce procurement costs, but also shorten procurement cycles and improve procurement efficiency. In addition, AI can also automate and make the procurement process transparent through smart contracts and blockchain technology, reducing human intervention and corruption risks.

In the customer service process, AI big models can automatically analyze customer feedback, complaints and other information through natural language processing technology, identify common problems and personalized needs of customers, and generate targeted service strategies. For example, AI can automatically generate reply emails, provide personalized product recommendations, and even respond to customer issues in real time through intelligent customer service systems to improve customer satisfaction and loyalty.

In the financial management process, AI big models can automatically identify abnormal data in financial statements, predict future financial conditions, and provide optimization suggestions through in-depth analysis of corporate financial data. For example, AI can automatically generate budget reports, monitor cash flow, predict tax risks, etc., helping companies achieve automation and refinement of financial management.

The implementation path of specific business process optimization can be carried out according to the following steps:

1. Process analysis and diagnosis : Use AI technology to automatically analyze existing processes and identify inefficient links and potential problems.
2. Process reconstruction and design : Combine the capabilities of AI big models to redesign business processes to ensure that the processes are intelligent, automated, and efficient.
3. Process implementation and monitoring : During the implementation process, continuously monitor the operation effect of the process to ensure the achievement of optimization goals, and make dynamic adjustments based on feedback.

Through the above optimization measures, enterprises can not only significantly improve the efficiency of business processes, but also enhance their ability to respond to market changes and ultimately achieve the strategic goal of digital transformation.

2.4 Data management and analysis requirements

In the process of digital transformation of enterprises, data management and analysis are one of the core links, which directly affects the operational efficiency, decision-making quality and market competitiveness of enterprises. First of all, the demand for data management is mainly reflected in the collection, storage, cleaning, integration and security of data. Enterprises need to build an efficient data collection system to ensure the real-time access of multi-source heterogeneous data, including structured data from business systems such as ERP, CRM, SCM, and unstructured data from social media and IoT devices. In terms of data storage, a distributed storage architecture should be adopted to support efficient storage and rapid retrieval of massive data, while meeting the needs of data backup and recovery. Data cleaning and integration are the key to ensuring data quality. ETL tools or data lake technology should be used to deduplicate, complete, convert and other operations on the original data to form high-quality data assets. Data security and privacy protection must comply with relevant laws and regulations, implement data encryption, access control, audit tracking and other measures to ensure the security of data during storage, transmission and use.

In terms of data analysis needs, enterprises need to build an intelligent analysis platform to support a variety of analysis scenarios, including:

• Descriptive analysis : Generate key indicator reports of business operations (such as sales, inventory turnover, customer churn rate, etc.) through data visualization tools to help management quickly understand the current status of the business.
• Diagnostic analysis : Use data mining technology to analyze the root causes of business problems. For example, through customer behavior data analysis, find out the main factors that lead to customer churn.
• Predictive analysis : Based on machine learning algorithms, predictive models are built to support forecasts of sales, market demand, equipment failures, etc. For example, time series analysis is used to predict future quarterly sales.
• Prescriptive analysis : Combine business rules with optimization algorithms to provide decision-making recommendations. For example, through supply chain optimization models, the optimal production plan and inventory strategy can be proposed.

In addition, enterprises need to build a unified data management system to achieve data standardization and assetization. The formulation of data standards should cover data naming specifications, data formats, data quality requirements, etc., to ensure the uniformity and consistency of data in various departments. Data dictionary and metadata management require the establishment of a data asset catalog to facilitate data search and use. At the same time, enterprises need to establish a data governance mechanism to clarify data ownership, usage rights and responsibilities to ensure efficient use and compliance of data.

To meet the above requirements, the following technical architecture is recommended:

Through the above solutions, enterprises can achieve efficient management and in-depth analysis of data, providing a solid data foundation for digital transformation.
