On January 15, BUCG held a special seminar on scientific and technological innovation and digital transformation to systematically summarize the experience and achievements in the field of scientific and technological innovation during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. In-depth discussions on the bottlenecks and problems existing in scientific and technological innovation work were conducted, clarifying the direction of improvement and implementation path, and further laying a solid foundation for comprehensively improving the Group's scientific and technological innovation capabilities and quality and efficiency during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period. Li Weidong, the Secretary of the Party Committee and President of the BUCG, attended the meeting and delivered a speech.
Leaders of the Group, assistant-level leaders of the Group, heads of relevant departments and offices at the headquarters, members of the Standing Committee of the Group's Science and Technology Committee, high-level technical talents, and representatives of scientific and technological innovation and digital transformation business attended the meeting. Li Jiulin, Chief Engineer of the BUCG, presided over the meeting.
At the meeting, the Group's Technical Management Department, Quality Management Department, and Information Office made keynote speeches on the work progress of each system in 2025, the key work program for 2026, and visions for the "15th Five-Year Plan". The representatives of scientific and technological personnel attending the meeting exchanged views on the current national and Beijing's strategies for scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation, trends in technological transformation across the sector, and the actual conditions of the Group's innovation work. They discussed the Group's key technology research direction, the development of a scientific and technological innovation system, and strategic positioning for digital transformation during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period.
The leaders of the Group held in-depth discussions and put forward suggestions on further enhancing the Group's scientific and technological innovation capacity to strengthen its core competitiveness. The meeting noted that it is necessary to further strengthen the supporting role of scientific and technological innovation work in various business sectors of the Group, focus on industry trends such as green, low-carbon, and smart construction, promote the deep integration of technological innovation, production and operation, and market development. Applying scientific and technological achievements will improve project quality and customer satisfaction, helping the Group deliver more competitive products and services. It is necessary to further refine result-oriented evaluation, trial-and-error, and error-tolerance mechanisms, pay attention to the input-output ratio, and promote the priority allocation of key resources to key areas that have a decisive impact on the Group's strategic development and core competitiveness. Coordinated planning and targeted measures will ensure breakthroughs in core technologies and the successful implementation of major projects. With the goal of refined management, the Group will continue digital transformation. Efforts will be made to focus on improving efficiency, quality, and risk control, accelerate digitalization and intelligent upgrading, strengthen the deep integration of technologies such as data elements and large AI models with various production and operation scenarios, and promote greater value of factors such as technology, funds, assets, and capital. The meeting emphasized that scientific and technological innovation and digital transformation are key engines for the Group's transformation and upgrading during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period. It is necessary to strengthen top-level design from a strategic level and coordinate resource allocation. By enhancing talent development, improving incentive mechanisms, and increasing publicity, the Group will build new technology-driven advantages across its six major industries and pursue high-quality development.
Li Weidong, the Secretary of the Party Committee and President of the BUCG, highly affirmed the achievements made by the Group in scientific and technological innovation since the "14th Five-Year Plan" period and expressed his heartfelt gratitude on behalf of the Group Party Committee to the vast number of scientific and technological workers who have worked hard and made positive contributions to the Group's scientific and technological innovation over the years. He said that over the past 40 years since its establishment, the Party Committee of the Group has consistently treated scientific and technological innovation as a core strategic driver for enterprise development. It has constantly unlocked new momentum and vitality in scientific and technological innovation, fostering a culture that encourages exploration and respects creativity. Across the Group, this supportive atmosphere has given rise to numerous outstanding talents and achievements, which have significantly advanced the Group's development.
Li Weidong pointed out that during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, the Group's scientific and technological innovation work should further improve its political stance and actively integrate into the overall development of Beijing's "Four Centers" initiative. As a state-owned enterprise in the capital, the Group must deeply understand the inherent requirements of serving the construction of Beijing's "four centers", especially the international science and technology innovation center. It should give full play to Beijing's rich advantages in scientific and technological innovation resources, focus on improving the ability to integrate internal and external innovation factors, build a high-level innovation platform, and demonstrate the mission and responsibility of state-owned enterprises in serving the overall development of the capital. The Group must further enhance its strategic foresight and step up efforts to build future-oriented technological advantages. In the face of rapid global technological change and intensifying competition, the Group must strengthen its sense of crisis, abandon path dependence, and deploy cutting-edge technologies and emerging fields such as artificial intelligence and intelligent construction with a forward-looking vision around its core business. It should strive to turn technological breakthroughs into market competitiveness, consolidate the company's comparative advantages amid industry changes, and firmly seize the initiative in development. At the same time, the Group needs to further focus on key areas and systematically improve the effectiveness of its innovation system. The Group must adopt a problem-oriented and goal-oriented approach, focusing on optimizing the capital's systems and addressing the pain points and difficulties found in its actual work. It should integrate resources, concentrate efforts to carry out open competition and targeted research to rapidly generate a series of landmark achievements with strong industry influence and broad social recognition, thereby driving the Group's development through innovation and tangible results. The Group needs to further refine its systems and mechanisms so that high-level scientific and technological innovation can continuously enhance the quality and efficiency of its growth. The Group should take the preparation of the "15th Five-Year Plan" as an opportunity to strengthen the top-level design of scientific and technological innovation. It should focus on establishing key scientific research projects that break through key core technologies and significantly enhance the Group's core competitiveness, and practical innovation that improves management and operation quality and efficiency. It also needs to improve the full-chain guarantee mechanism covering talent incentives, achievement transformation, and resource allocation, strengthen process scheduling and target management, establish a normalized supervision mechanism, and ensure that all deployments are implemented and effective. In doing so, the Group will inject sustained technological momentum into its long-term development.
