Question: What is 计算机系统集成 (computer system integration)?
Answer: It’s a Chinese industry/business category term — “Computer System Integration” — referring to companies or business licenses that cover designing, procuring, deploying, and maintaining integrated IT systems for a client (hardware + software + network + sometimes custom dev), rather than building or selling a single product.
Typical scope under this label:
- Network infrastructure setup (routers, switches, cabling, data centers)
- Server/storage procurement and deployment
- Software integration across vendor systems (ERP, OA, databases, middleware)
- Security systems (firewalls, monitoring, access control)
- Custom development to glue systems together (APIs, data pipelines)
- Ongoing operations/maintenance contracts (运维)
Where you’d see it:
- Business registration category in China (营业执照经营范围) — companies list “计算机系统集成” as a qualified business scope, sometimes requiring a certification tier (一级/二级/三级 system integration qualification, issued by industry associations) to bid on larger government/enterprise contracts.
- Government/enterprise procurement bids — RFPs often specifically require bidders to hold this qualification.
- Traditional IT services companies (think: value-added resellers + systems integrators, like a China-market equivalent of Accenture/CDW/Presidio at smaller scale) — distinct from pure software product companies or SaaS.
It’s largely a legacy/enterprise-procurement concept — most relevant if you’re registering a company scope, bidding on government contracts, or dealing with SOEs that require formal qualifications rather than just hiring a dev shop directly.
