Digital–industrial integration assessment

Review enterprise integration and compare with industry peers

About the method

Based on Chinese national standards, this established assessment supports enterprise self-assessment, diagnosis and benchmarking. Enterprise data also informs sectoral and regional analysis of digital–industrial integration.

Geographic adoption and scale

Regions
China; participating enterprises span the country and all 41 major industrial categories.
Scale
In 2025, the National Industrial Information Security Development Research Center reported serving 366,000 enterprises through self-assessment, diagnosis and benchmarking.

The 2025 development data map describes coverage across all three economic sectors and over 100 subsectors, supporting national and local analysis. The 366,000 figure is the platform’s reported enterprise reach across sectors and years, not management-system certification holders.

03

Use benchmarking findings
