Driving development through change and winning the future through innovation. On February 22, 2023, to jointly promote faster high-quality development in Shandong's furniture industry and explore its future direction, the expanded fourth council meeting of the seventh session of the Shandong Furniture Association and the Industry Innovation Development Forum were held at the Borr International Hotel in Jinan. More than 400 people attended, including association leaders, industry experts, scholars, and representatives of home furnishing enterprises.
Soonfor Software was invited to attend as a council member of the seventh council of the Shandong Furniture Association, a leading digital enterprise in the pan-home furnishing industry, a supplier for national smart manufacturing demonstration projects, the chair unit of the Guangdong Smart Manufacturing Committee, and a specialized and sophisticated enterprise that produces new and unique products.
The upgrade of customized home furnishing from 1.0. to 2.0. means moving to an integrated whole-home customization model that truly meets customers' personalized needs. For customized enterprises, this brings both opportunities and challenges and places higher demands on lean and efficient management. At the subsequent Industry Innovation Development Forum and the themed dialogue session, "Customized Home Furnishing: How Can It Upgrade from 1.0. to 2.0?", nine guests, including Lai Yuxiang, senior consultant of Guangdong Soonfor Software Co., Ltd., Zhang Zhihua, president of Shangpin Bense Smart Home Co., Ltd., and Ding Sanlian, executive vice president of Shandong Huajian Aluminum Group Co., Ltd., conducted in-depth analysis from multiple dimensions and explored response strategies. Practical insights and distinctive viewpoints were presented one after another, bringing the industry a feast of ideas on transformation and upgrading.

Soonfor Software is a leading enterprise serving the furniture manufacturing sector and has carried out management and system upgrades for many companies. Senior consultant Lai Yuxiang of Soonfor said, "To deliver integrated whole-home customization services, customized enterprises need to achieve closed-loop operations from the sales end and design end to the manufacturing end and logistics end." During the upgrade of enterprise management systems, Consultant Lai also offered professional recommendations from the perspective of digital management. Shandong has many solid wood furniture enterprises, including numerous small and medium-sized companies serving regional customization markets. In response to pain points such as the complexity of solid wood customization processes and high rework rates, Consultant Lai also explained in detail from a management perspective how Soonfor's integrated digital solutions help enterprises minimize rework, reduce costs, and improve capacity and profit.

At present, the furniture manufacturing industry is accelerating toward digitalization and intelligence, industrial internet technologies are rapidly integrating with traditional industries, and the manufacturing and service systems across the entire furniture industry chain will undergo profound changes.
