en.Wedoany.com Reported - China Jiangxi Taihe South Cement Co., Ltd. recently completed a project to independently produce and lay curbstones for mine roads. By replacing traditional external procurement with in-house efforts, the project is expected to save 11,000 yuan.

Curbstones on factory roads are infrastructure essential for driving safety. Previously, the company relied on sporadic external procurement and outsourcing, which resulted in high unit costs compounded by transportation and labor expenses, keeping overall costs elevated. Taihe South incorporated curbstones production and laying into its independent cost-reduction and efficiency-enhancement project. A task force composed of technical experts and frontline workers was formed to conduct research during production breaks, cutting off external procurement expenditures at the source.

To address technical challenges such as mold sealing and demolding fragility, the project team conducted multiple rounds of trials, ultimately developing a mature production process. In terms of quality control, inspection standards were implemented to ensure that self-made curbstones have smooth surfaces, sharp edges, and solid materials, with technical indicators meeting or exceeding those of externally purchased products. During the laying phase, combined with themed Party Day activities, Party members took the lead in meeting construction requirements for smooth lines and precise alignment, enhancing the standardization of factory roads.

This independent production and laying initiative brought three types of benefits to the company: In terms of economic benefits, by eliminating intermediary profits, transportation, and outsourced labor costs, the unit cost was significantly reduced, with an expected savings of 11,000 yuan. In terms of talent development, employees gained hands-on skills in mold calibration, concrete mixing, and rebar binding, cultivating a group of versatile professionals. In terms of work ethic, the shift from "buying with money" to "doing it ourselves" fostered a consensus on collective efficiency improvement.

This practice embodies the concept of "integrating Party building into production and driving efficiency through practical action." By replacing outsourcing with independent production, the company retains control over quality. Each curbstones is marked with the company logo, serving as a tangible symbol of all employees' participation in cost reduction and efficiency enhancement.
