Sunway AI System Update: Streamlining Access to Chinese Supply Chains
Overview
In today's fast-paced global market, information asymmetry is the biggest barrier to efficiency. Sunway has recently updated its AI system, aimed at addressing a key challenge: how to shorten the supply chain screening and validation process from weeks to hours, without compromising accuracy.
- Single supplier review: typically completed within 12 hours, including due diligence, system scoring, and key focus areas.
- Batch screening review: For larger lists, such as 200 suppliers, the process can typically be completed within 3 business days, including comparative analysis and a recommendation list.
- Delivery Method: System-generated data and professional lawyer review, providing actionable intelligence ready reports for internal decision-making and follow-up actions.
The Efficiency Gap
The breadth of China's supply chain is both an advantage and a challenge, with common efficiency issues including:
- Fragmented and inconsistent information: company records, litigation records, operational status, IP data, and public information is distributed across various platforms—making data collection and cross-checking time-consuming.
- Difficulty in Comparison: when a list grows from 5 to 50 suppliers, manual methods struggle to provide consistent and comparable results.
- Repetitive Work: pre-signing due diligence reflects only the "past." During lengthy delivery periods, changes can occur, requiring re-validation and additional analysis, extending timelines and, in some cases, causing project delays or suspensions.
What's needed is not more data, but faster Actionable Intelligence.
Sunway's Solution
Sunway's AI leverages a data foundation that consolidates real-time data from recognised public registries and authoritative databases, such as corporate records registry, CNIPA for intellectual property, and judicial databases. This enables the system to convert complex, non-standard information into standardized efficiency scores, providing overseas procurement teams with immediate, reliable decision-making support.
| Module | Efficiency Pain Point Solved | Prompt Decision Value |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-screening | Avoids unnecessary resource expenditure on unqualified suppliers | Go/No-Go List |
| Scoring System | Reduces subjective bias and the time cost of manual reviews. | Structured Scoring (80+ checkpoints Automatically Scored) |
| Dynamic Tracking | Helps reduce project rework due to information lag. | Trigger-based Alerts (Notifications of key changes) |
| Dispute Resolution | Reduces legal assessment time when disputes arise. | Asset Leads & Actionable Recommendations |
What's New in this Update
- Data Foundation Upgrade: Intellectual Property data capabilities have been improved, allowing global searches and comparisons, significantly reducing the time cost associated with verifying technology and rights status.
- Enhanced Technical Intelligence Retrieval & Monitoring: Supports searches, tracking and update notifications on specific technology themes, optimizing "risk control" before procurement and continuous technical monitoring post-procurement.
Efficiency Comparison
| Dimension | Manual Review | Public Search | Sunway AI System |
|---|---|---|---|
| Turnaround Time | 7+ Business Days | Instant, but fragmented | Within 12 Hours (single supplier) / 3 Days (list of 200 suppliers) |
| Decision Basis | Relies on individual experience | Raw data; requires further processing | Structured Scoring + ready to use recommendations |
| Lifecycle Management | Stops after signing; no tracking | No dynamic update capability | 24/7 trigger-based tracking; Full lifecycle support |
| Consistency of results | High variance; inconsistent | Mixed data sources; hard to verify | Standardized Algorithms + Legal Review; accurate & stable |
| Dispute Scenario Support | Depends on resources allocated | No solution advice | Scoring + Solution Advice |
