CEO Jeon Hwa-sung's Startup Talk #1195: HooverSolutec Innovation Vision

The YouTube program ‘Startup Morning Coffee’, hosted by CEO Jeon Hwa-sung, meets viewers live every day at 8:40 AM on the ‘Jeon Hwa-sung’s CNTV’ channel, deeply illuminating the core competencies and market potential of innovative startups. The company highlighted by this program, which provides extensive information about the startup ecosystem through real-time comment interaction, is ‘Hoover Solutech’. Hoover Solutech is a company that addresses chronic inefficiencies in manufacturing sites and presents the future of smart factories. They are leading the automation of factory production management through their ‘Wise Collab’ solution and furthermore aim to build an ESG integrated platform. Currently, they are undertaking CNT Tech’s Kibo Venture Camp support program, gaining recognition for their technological prowess and growth potential. In manufacturing sites, equipment process data is often manually omitted, or existing system data such as MES and ERP are fragmented, making analysis difficult. Furthermore, manual operation-centric production management screens were a major culprit in delaying prompt decision-making. To solve these problems, Hoover Solutech developed production management automation and an AI-based intelligent POP (iPOP) solution. Hoover Solutech’s intelligent POP is key to maximizing the efficiency of smart factories. This solution collects equipment status information in real-time, and a Large Language Model (LLM)-based POP agent executes logic based on user queries, reporting the results immediately in conversational and image formats. This effectively prevents the disruption of the plan-execute-loop and strongly supports managers in making real-time decisions based on on-site data. Additionally, it provides automation solutions that stabilize high-utilization production management areas on-site, standardizing them to adjacent areas such as material management and sales management, thereby increasing overall factory operational efficiency. CEO Jeon Hwa-sung emphasized regarding Hoover Solutech, "Based on years of IT project experience, they are focusing on automating smart factory production management systems by integrating fragmented factory operational data with AI and the Wise Collab solution." He added, "The introduction of LLM-based conversational POP agents is highly expected to accelerate the digital transformation of manufacturing by resolving on-site inefficiencies and supporting managers in utilizing data in real-time for decision-making." Hoover Solutech is expected to innovate complex manufacturing environments, set the standard for future smart factories, and inject new vitality into manufacturing in the era of digital transformation.
