Alibaba Cloud Automotive China Translated from Chinese

China FAW Group

Enterprise Knowledge Search · IT Operations Automation · Real-time Analytics

China FAW needed one AI layer that could make unstructured enterprise knowledge searchable, automate employee business handling across many internal systems, and shorten management reporting cycles that still depended on specialist-built BI reports and slow manual coordination.

BI report development cycle reduced from 7 days to 5 seconds
service staff reduced 50%

Reported impact

Business outcome

Hongqi Yunmei expanded enterprise knowledge access and automated service handling while cutting BI report creation from seven days to five seconds and reducing the number of service staff needed by 50%, giving FAW faster decisions and lower handling effort across office workflows.

  • Cost Reduction
  • Customer Experience
  • Productivity Improvement

Solution

China FAW and Alibaba Cloud built Hongqi Yunmei as a hybrid-cloud enterprise agent layer for employee knowledge, workflow automation, and management analytics. Alibaba Cloud Bailian supplies elastic model training and inference plus the toolchain used to launch intent-recognition and domain-specific agents, while sensitive or latency-critical functions run as private deployments on FAW's cloud-native platform. Enterprise policies and business knowledge from multiple departments are vectorized into knowledge stores so employees can retrieve answers without manually searching scattered documents. For transaction workflows, Hongqi Yunmei extracts fields from natural-language requests and generates microservice calls to complete forms and approvals. For decision support, the assistant connects to FAW's data middle platform, generates SQL against cleaned corporate data, and returns analysis to management. The result is a single mobile entry point for office work and business insight.

Data flow

An employee request enters Hongqi Yunmei, where the intent-recognition agent routes it either to the knowledge vector database for retrieval, to domain agents that generate microservice calls for workflow handling, or to the data middle platform for natural-language-to-SQL analysis. Public-cloud model services on Bailian and private services on FAW's cloud-native platform return the final response to staff or management.

Solution architecture

7 components · 4 layers
  1. Compute
    • Alibaba Cloud Bailian Provides the elastic large-model platform and tooling used to train, run, and iterate FAW's enterprise agents.
  2. Storage
    • Enterprise knowledge vector database Stores vectorized enterprise knowledge so employees can retrieve policies and know-how through natural-language questions.
    • FAW data middle platform Supplies cleaned enterprise data that Hongqi Yunmei turns into SQL-based analysis for managers.
  3. Serving
    • Hongqi Yunmei Serves as the employee-facing enterprise assistant for knowledge search, workflow handling, and management insight.
    • FAW cloud-native platform Hosts private deployments for sensitive or low-latency functions that should not run only on the public-cloud side.
  4. Orchestration
    • Intent-recognition agent Interprets each user request and routes it to the right domain workflow or knowledge service.
    • Domain-specific agents Handle departmental tasks such as knowledge answers, automated processing, and role-specific assistance.

Architecture clues

  • Enterprise knowledge is vectorized into a shared knowledge store for retrieval-based question answering.
  • Intent-recognition and domain-specific agents are separated so new business domains can be added without disturbing existing ones.
  • Management analytics relies on natural-language SQL generation against cleaned enterprise data in the data middle platform.
  • The deployment uses a hybrid-cloud split: public-cloud elasticity and tooling on Bailian, private deployment on FAW's cloud-native platform for sensitive functions.
