He Dengcai: Layout of National Logistics Hub Construction Network Operation System
Recently, with the approval of the State Council, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Transport jointly issued the “National Logistics Hub Layout and Construction Plan” (Development and Reform Economic and Trade [2018] No. 1886) (hereinafter referred to as “Planning”). This is a major measure taken by the Party Central Committee and the State Council to strengthen the decision-making and deployment of infrastructure networks such as logistics, and to realize the optimal allocation of logistics resources and the systematic organization of logistics activities. It is also the first “logistics hub” special plan proposed at the national level. . The implementation of the "Planning" will definitely create a "channel + hub + network" logistics operation system, promote the high-quality development of the logistics industry, build a "logistics strong country", and then optimize the national economic spatial layout, the construction of a modern economic system has a significant and far-reaching Impact.
First, the background and significance of the introduction of "Planning"
The promulgation of "Planning" is an objective requirement for the development of China's modern logistics industry. After 40 years of development, China's modern logistics service system has been basically established, and the logistics infrastructure conditions have been continuously improved. By the end of 2017, the national railway operating mileage reached 127,000 kilometers, including 25,000 kilometers of high-speed rail; the total length of highways was 4,715,500 kilometers, including 136,000 kilometers of expressways; the number of berths above 10,000 tons was 2,317; the number of civil aviation airports was 229. More than 1,600 logistics parks above designated size. The integration of transportation and logistics, the logistics infrastructure network is basically formed, and the logistics industry is supported to grow into a basic and strategic industry of the national economy. However, we must also see that China's logistics infrastructure has inadequate system planning, unreasonable layout; insufficient hub status, extensive operational methods; lack of interconnection and interoperability, and weak synergies; multiple modes of transport and various types of nodes. Problems such as uneven development of facilities and insufficient role of national networks. The layout and construction of a comprehensive logistics hub with wider radiation area, stronger agglomeration effect, better service function and higher operational efficiency is the urgent need to promote the accumulation of logistics resources, improve the efficiency of logistics operations, support the transformation and upgrading of the industry, and coordinate the development of regional economy. need.
The promulgation of the "Planning" is a major measure to implement the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council. From the internal structure of China's logistics infrastructure, node construction lags behind the line, and hub construction is a "short board" for network construction. According to the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, “Strengthen the construction of infrastructure networks such as water conservancy, railways, highways, waterways, aviation, pipelines, power grids, information, logistics, etc.” Special emphasis is placed on logistics infrastructure equivalent to water conservancy, railways, highways, water transport, and aviation. "Network construction" such as pipelines, power grids, and information. Over the years, the relevant government departments have issued a number of plans for the logistics development and comprehensive transportation system, but the special plan with the theme of “National Logistics Hub” was first compiled. In accordance with the requirements of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, formulate and implement the "Planning" to fill the shortcomings of logistics infrastructure, expand the supply of high-quality logistics services, and build a low-cost, high-efficiency national logistics service network to enhance the vitality and competitiveness of the real economy. Great significance.
The promulgation of "Planning" is an inevitable choice for promoting the high-quality development of the logistics industry and building a "logistics strong country". At present, China's logistics industry is still in an important period of strategic opportunities, facing new opportunities and challenges. The new journey of building a socialist modernization and strengthening country has put forward new requirements for the development of the logistics industry. With the implementation of the “Manufacturing Power Country Strategy”, it is necessary to promote the deep integration of modern logistics industry, modern supply chain and advanced manufacturing industry; around the “rural revitalization strategy”, it is necessary to accelerate the construction and improvement of logistics service network for agriculture, rural areas and farmers; The “Regional Coordinated Development Strategy” needs to coordinate the development of the western region, the comprehensive revitalization of the Northeast, the rise of the central region, the development of the eastern region, and the logistics layout of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Dawan District and the Yangtze River Delta; It is necessary to adjust the transportation structure, optimize the logistics layout, and vigorously develop green logistics. In line with the all-round opening-up strategy, it is necessary to focus on the “Belt and Road” to create a global logistics infrastructure and industrial supply chain system. All of these need to be based on the “National Logistics Hub Layout and Construction” as a leader to build a national logistics hub network that is scientific, rational, functional, open, shared, intelligent, and green.
Second, the main content of "Planning" and highlighting "bright spots"
"Planning" is divided into planning background; overall requirements; rationally deploying national logistics hubs, optimizing infrastructure supply structure; integrating and optimizing logistics hub resources, improving logistics organization efficiency; constructing national logistics hub network system, improving logistics operation quality; promoting national logistics hub Comprehensive innovation, cultivating new kinetic energy for logistics development, strengthening policy support, and creating a good development environment. In my understanding, "Planning" is both comprehensive and profound, with emphasis on "bright spots".
The first is to propose a clear "timetable." Among them, by 2020, there will be 30 national logistics hubs with strong radiation-driven capacity, high level of modern operation and close interconnection, and initially establish a hub construction operation mode in line with China's national conditions, forming a basic framework for the national logistics hub network. By 2025, 150 national logistics hubs will be constructed, and the ratio of total logistics costs to GDP will be reduced to around 12%. And to achieve the basic formation of efficient logistics operation network, the efficiency of logistics hub organization has been greatly improved, and the comprehensive logistics service capability has been significantly enhanced. By 2035, relying on the national logistics hub, a number of hubs with national influence will be formed, and the national logistics hub will be built into an important driving force for industrial transformation and upgrading, coordinated regional economic development and national economic competitiveness. The three-stage division is not only in line with the country's major development strategy, but also closely integrated with the logistics industry, with strong feasibility.
The second is to describe a clear "place of falling". The "Planning" takes into account the needs of the country's major strategic implementation, regional economic development, industrial structure optimization and upgrading, and combines the "Ten Vertical and Ten Horizontal" transportation channels and the basic pattern of domestic logistics channels, and selects 127 cities with certain basic conditions as the country. The logistics hub carries the city and plans to build 212 national logistics hubs. It includes 41 land port type, 30 port type, 23 airport type, 47 production service type, 55 business service type and 16 land border port type national logistics hubs. The national logistics hub planning and construction put forward specific requirements such as good location conditions, intensive spatial layout, priority of stock facilities, open publicity, perfect service functions, overall operation management, and regional synergy linkage. To this end, the "National Logistics Hub Hosting City Column 1" listed in the "Planning" is based on sufficient, clear-cut, clear-cut categories and easy-to-understand.
The third is to sketch out the specific "construction map." The "Settings" set up three columns in the fourth, fifth and sixth parts respectively, and put forward specific projects and clear requirements for the layout and construction of the national logistics hub. Column 2 “National Logistics Hub Resource Integration Project” lists “National Logistics Hub Construction and Operation Main Body Cultivation Project” and “National Logistics Hub Alliance Project”. Box 3 “National Logistics Hub Service Capacity Enhancement Project” lists “inland container system construction project”, “hub multimodal transport construction project”, “hub railway special line project” and “hub international logistics function improvement project”. Box 4 “National Logistics Hub Innovation Driven Project” lists “hub economic cultivation project”, “hub business model innovation and cultivation project” and “smart express public hub construction project”. There are a total of nine projects in the three columns, all of which have specific construction requirements and time limits for completion. They are only to be refined and implemented.
In general, the guiding principles of the "Planning" are clear, the content is rich and specific, and the focus is on the focus. I suggest that you read through the full text and fully comprehend it.
Third, some ideas to promote the "plan" landing
Overall, the “Planning” is of great significance, focused and targeted, and is the layout outline and construction guide for China's logistics infrastructure network. A plan, nine points to implement. The full implementation of the "Planning" is not only the responsibility of the relevant government departments, but also the key tasks of the whole industry and all stakeholders.
First, we must strengthen the authority and seriousness of the "Planning." The "Planning" has been approved by the State Council, and the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Transport have issued two departments, which are quite authoritative and must be carefully maintained. The "Planning" requires that all regions and departments should divide their work according to their responsibilities, improve and refine relevant supporting policies and measures, and conscientiously implement various planning tasks. The provincial development and reform departments shall, in conjunction with the transportation department, guide the host cities to combine the overall urban planning with the actual planning of the region according to the requirements of this plan and related work requirements, and actively promote the planning and construction of the hub in accordance with relevant requirements and key tasks. It is necessary to study and formulate the implementation plan for the construction of the national logistics hub network, establish a regular assessment and dynamic adjustment mechanism, and promptly call out the host cities that fail to meet the construction requirements in the long run or fail to effectively promote the implementation of the hub. It is recommended that for the national logistics hub identified in the Plan, there must be mandatory planning and use control. Once the site is determined to be a hub, neither the government nor the company can change it at will.
Second, we must strengthen the policy and support of the "Planning." The layout and construction of the national logistics hub is a very policy-oriented work that requires an appropriate policy environment to support and safeguard. The "Plan" proposes to give priority to the use of existing logistics parks, especially the national demonstration logistics parks, as well as freight station stations, railway logistics bases and other facilities to plan and build a national logistics hub. For the land support policy that is generally concerned in the industry, the “Planning” clarifies that the land for new construction projects such as logistics and warehousing, railway stations, railway lines, collection and distribution, and highways within the national logistics hub is allowed to use the reserved national plan. The approval, approval and filing of relevant local departments shall be guaranteed by the provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities). Encourage the supply of land through various methods such as “first rent and then let” and “rental and let”. We must actively support the adjustment of relevant plans for the construction of a national logistics hub. There is also a new policy for the use of railways for the use of logistics-related facilities. In addition, there are new expressions for continuing to deepen the reform of the “distribution service” in the logistics field, optimizing the environment for fostering and developing the hub, and increasing investment and financial support. If the policies and measures proposed in the Plan can be implemented, it will effectively ensure the needs of the layout and construction of the national logistics hub.
Third, we must strengthen the organization and coordination of the Plan. The "Planning" proposes that we should give full play to the role of the inter-ministerial joint meeting of the national modern logistics work, establish a coordination mechanism for the cultivation and development of the national logistics hub, and coordinate the promotion of the layout and planning of the national logistics hub. The National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Transport are required to strengthen the overall coordination and work guidance with relevant departments, and coordinate and solve problems in the implementation of the plan in a timely manner. Regarding the "National Logistics Hub Alliance Project", the "Planning" proposes to play the role of industry associations, support and promote the establishment of a national logistics hub alliance for hub construction and operation enterprises. We will give full play to the advantages of networked operations of key enterprises, promote the strengthening of business docking between national logistics hubs, and actively promote the construction of cooperation mechanisms such as factor flow, information interconnection, and standard coordination. For the huge system engineering of the layout and construction of the national logistics hub, it is inseparable from the strong organization and coordination work, which is the key to whether the "plan" can really land.
As a trade association of the industry, the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing has participated in some of the research work of the Plan. In the process of promoting the implementation of the "Planning", we will continue to conduct in-depth investigations and studies in accordance with the unified arrangements of the Party Central Committee and the State Council and the arrangements of relevant departments, actively reflect corporate demands, and actively assist the government in information interconnection, standards coordination, statistical analysis and alliances. The commissioning and other entrusted matters will play a better role as a bridge and link to promote the implementation of the "Planning".
