[Two departments: Automobile companies should establish and improve supplier account payment management systems and complete semi-annual and annual status reports before the end of July and January each year] On September 7, the General Office of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the General Office of the State Administration for Market Regulation issued a notice on promoting automobile companies to standardize supplier account payments and optimize account period management, which pointed out that research and evaluation should be carried out. Automobile companies should establish and improve supplier account payment management systems, strengthen implementation tracking, supervise and optimize account period management, and complete semi-annual and annual status reports before the end of July and January each year, and submit them to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology entrusts a third-party organization to conduct research and evaluation on the company's account payment situation, and publicly releases the evaluation results. Based on the automobile company's supplier payment status report, the third-party organization organized industry experts to conduct in-depth research on the automobile company and upstream suppliers. By reviewing documents, reviewing data, inspecting sites, and interviewing employees, we can accurately grasp the company's account period, payment methods and proportions, and the scale of accounts payable. The specific implementation details of the research and evaluation will be separately formulated by a third-party agency and announced to the public. The survey and assessment work is carried out once a year, covering all key automobile companies (the specific list is released together with the survey and assessment implementation details). Third-party institutions should conduct research and evaluation objectively, impartially and in a standardized manner, and should not seek improper benefits through this, and should actively accept supervision.
