Foton Auto Innovation Cases

Foton Motor's journey of integration, knowledge sharing, and innovation has been a cornerstone in its development strategy. This approach not only enhances internal capabilities but also strengthens international competitiveness through strategic alliances and collaborative efforts with global partners. One of the significant steps Foton took was forming a strategic alliance with Beijing Weichai Power, BOSCH from Germany, and AVL from Austria on April 28, 2006, in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. This alliance aimed to combine the strengths of each company, leveraging their respective expertise in technology, research, and market strategies. By establishing a power system technology R&D center in Beijing, Foton and Weichai Power were able to develop leading automotive power products that meet international standards. The collaboration extended to integrating R&D centers globally, optimizing service networks, and implementing joint marketing, brand communication, and procurement strategies. These actions significantly reduced costs and enhanced core competitiveness. Together, they registered the core power brand "Weichaiou V Power," marking a milestone in their partnership. Another key initiative was the establishment of a supply chain synchronization development complex. On May 14, 2005, the first meeting of Foton Motor's "Synchronization Development of Supply Chain" conference was held. This initiative brought together over 40 member units, including major parts suppliers like Shanghai Yanfeng Visteon Automotive Trim Systems Co., Ltd. The Synchronous Development Consortium focused on design cooperation, technology exchange, and innovation in automotive parts. This collaboration improved design efficiency, reduced development cycles, and accelerated product innovation. Currently, there are about 190 concurrent development projects between Foton Motor Research Institute and suppliers, resulting in over 140 patents. Foton Motor also emphasized the importance of working closely with distributors. Adhering to the "distributor first" concept, Foton ensured that profit margins were maintained even during off-seasons. To strengthen relationships, Foton implemented a campaign-style direct sales strategy for disadvantaged distributors. Aoluole Branch selected sales staff as brand managers for distributors, responsible for regional sales management and marketing. In March 2006, four direct sales points were set up in regions like Jilin, Shaanxi, Hainan, and Fujian, achieving notable results with 53 units sold in March. In another instance, Foton engineers collaborated with AVL Austria on an engine Euro 3 project. Foton proposed full participation of its engineers in the R&D process, which surprised AVL. After consultations, AVL agreed, impressed by Foton's commitment to learning and innovation. Through this collaboration, Foton achieved advanced engine auto-calibration, demonstrating its capability to integrate global knowledge effectively. Foton also trained its suppliers through international companies, ensuring they could keep up with product upgrades. For example, when Lotus evaluated the suspension of Foton's C2 project, instead of replacing the supplier, Foton organized training sessions for all suspension suppliers, improving their skills and solving the issue collectively. This approach highlighted Foton's commitment to enhancing its supplier network through collaboration. Foton's collaborations extended internationally, partnering with companies like AVL for engine optimization, Lotus for vehicle matching, MIM Design for automotive design, BOSCH for engine systems, Visteon for interior and exterior components, and Delphi for engine control. These partnerships allowed Foton to access cutting-edge technologies and improve its product offerings. In 2006, Foton signed a feasibility study for a joint venture with Cummins to produce light-duty diesel engines in Beijing. The joint venture aimed to meet European emission standards and provide high-quality engines for various vehicle types. This partnership underscored Foton's commitment to innovation and quality. Foton also invested in technological talent, attracting experts like Yan Xuebin, Ren Qilong, and Ye Qing. These individuals brought valuable experience and expertise, contributing to Foton's technological advancements. For instance, Ren Qilong's work on NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) significantly improved Foton's noise reduction capabilities, achieving a pass rate of over 90%. Foton's innovative spirit was evident in its independent calibration projects, such as the Euro 3 engine calibration. Despite challenges, Foton completed the project independently, showcasing its technical capabilities. Similarly, Foton's development of the first diesel light passenger car in China demonstrated its commitment to fuel efficiency and environmental sustainability. Foton's achievements in safety and innovation were recognized globally. The Euro V bus, for example, won awards at international exhibitions, highlighting its environmental and technological superiority. Foton's involvement in the Shenzhou VI spacecraft mission further showcased its reliability and technical excellence. Through these initiatives, Foton Motor has established itself as a leader in the automotive industry, driven by a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement. Its success story serves as an inspiration for other companies aiming to achieve sustainable growth and global recognition.
