  • HSMC Innovation Project Competition

    About the Competition

    “The HSMC Innovation Project Competition” aims to promote a culture of innovation & creativity and enrich student learning experience at HSMC. The submission should demonstrate the creative concepts, innovative design/modeling, as well as the applicability and impact.

    The competition is organised in three areas: Business, Social  and Humanities Innovations.

    (1) Social Innovation

    – Integrative technologies: enabling universal accessible transportation services (2017 Merit Award)

    Members: Chung Wing Hang, Li Shing Fung, Mak Sze Hon

    Abstract

    In this project, we study an integrative transportation system to provide universal accessible transportation services for people with disabilities and the elderly. In Hong Kong, the number of people with disabilities has increased by approximately 60%, from 361,300 in 2007 to 578,600 in 2013.  According to a report from Census and Statistics Department in 2015, our society will become an ageing population. The median age would rise from 42.8 in 2014 to 51.0 in 2064. Hong Kong is obviously facing the challenges of serving elderly people in near future. To deal with the increasing demands of universal accessible transportation services, the government not only need to provide additional specialized vehicles but also support the development of an integrative transportation system for managing the increase of complexity in operations. This project aims to propose integrative technologies for enabling universal accessible transportation service for sustainability in Hong Kong. The integrative technologies include: 1) Data Visualization; 2) Vehicle Scheduling System; 3) Mobile apps.

    – Smart Technologies for Maintaining Your Product Lifetime Value (2016 Excellence Award)

    Members: Anson Lee, Johnny Yao, Alex Yung

    Abstract

    This project aims to explore the smart technologies for the service parts industry with the case study of Company R. Online and offline solutions are innovated to optimize the operations:

     A) Online solution: A multi-functional mobile app for stock taking and real-time inventory monitoring system through cloud database.

     B) Offline solution: A visualization interface of stockroom layout with the optimal routing plan for responding customer orders.

    – Leveraging the Big Data Analytics for SMEs (2016 Merit Award)

    Members: Vanessa Chan, Eva Leung, Kinson Lok

    Abstract

    The objective of this project is to innovate a business intelligent tool for small­-medium sized enterprises (SMEs) to enhance their decisions quality and identify the rooms for continuous improvement. . In particular, this tool is designed for the procurement function which aims to achieve just-­in-­time strategy. The project was worked with Tung Fat Ho Building Material Ltd (TFH), which is one of the leading ironmongery suppliers in Hong Kong, to collect the large amount of data from their enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. The business intelligent tool consists of two parts. The first part is composed of the database software, Microsoft Access, to transform the unstructured data among various unstructured reports to become structured data in the relational dataset. The second part of business intelligent tool is developed in the spreadsheet software, Microsoft Excel, serving as an analytical platform to shows different levels of key performance indicators a dashboard. The project aims to develop business intelligent tools which are comparable to the large enterprises operations but also are affordable in small-­medium sized enterprises.

    1.  Analysis on arrival sequencing methods for smoothing arrival congestion and reducing arrival delay in HKIA

    Supervisor: Dr. Karolina GLOWACKA

    Abstract:

    In this paper, arrival sequencing of Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) is considered. By a better arrival sequence, wake turbulence can be reduced and overall delay can be minimized. Hence, arrival congestion can be soothed. Simio 8 is used to simulate the current situation with 3D animation. Two original models using FIFO and EDD as well as two modified models with consideration of multiple factors using FIFO and EDD were tested in Simio. Result shows that the modified FIFO models could lead to 9.5% improvement in arrival delay.

    2.  Optimizing the Service Parts Operations with Emergent Technologies

    Supervisor: Dr. Daniel MO

    Abstract:

    In recent year, the service parts management receives new attentions due to the higher profitability of its business models as well as the product sustainability. However, the high demand uncertainty of the service parts and the requirement of providing high responsive service become the major challenges of this industry. As those challenges limit the industrial development, this study focuses on reviewing the characteristics and challenges of the service parts industry. Through conducting qualitative analysis and developing the analytical prototype, the project would give an innovative insight for the companies in the service parts industry to increase their competitiveness.

    This project includes online and offline solutions with emergent and innovative smart technology to enhance the operation performance of the largest photocopier company in Hong Kong. The offline tool is a data visualization interface of warehouse layout with the identification of optimal routing plan for responding customer orders. The online tool is a multi-functional mobile app for stock taking and real-time inventory monitoring system connected to a cloud database. By applying the online and offline tools, the efficiency of operation can be improved and optimized with 47% of improvement in the operations efficiency of stock taking. For the warehouse management, the allocation of service parts is visualized and learning to be optimal, which would reduce 10% to 28% of total walking distance. With the online solution, the inventory status can be visualized anywhere.
