January 6, 2026, the third working day of 2026, under the meticulous organization of Plug and Play China, the management team of Coca-Cola CPS, a global giant in the beverage industry, visited the Shanghai office of iLabService Shipu Technology. The two parties conducted in-depth discussions on digital and intelligent laboratory operation management and explored new opportunities for industry transformation. Mr. Kenny Li, Founder and CEO of iLabService, led the core team to receive the guests warmly, and delivered a special sharing and product demonstration based on the independently developed Smart LabOps solution, laying a solid foundation for potential cooperation between the two parties.
The Coca-Cola CPS team presented a strong lineup in this exchange, including Libo Weng, General Manager of Shanghai Plant, Kenny Deng, Director of Engineering and Maintenance of Shanghai Plant, Valentina Xu, QSE Director, and Reed Lu, Laboratory Supervisor. Ms. Yutian Lu, Senior Partner Success Manager of Plug and Play China in the biotechnology and food consumption field, coordinated the whole process, building a bridge for efficient communication between the two parties.
Kenny systematically elaborated on iLabService's development history, core technologies and industry solutions. As an innovative enterprise deeply engaged in the field of digital intelligent laboratories for more than ten years, iLabService has built a full-cycle Smart LabOps platform covering resource digitalization, process automation and intelligent analysis since its establishment in New Jersey, USA in 2016. With more than 80 independent intellectual property rights, a R&D team accounting for 60% of the total staff, and practical experience serving more than 7,700 customers, it has become a leader in global digital intelligent laboratory transformation. During the demonstration session, the team focused on the full-stack solution, showcasing core modules such as full-lifecycle equipment management, intelligent inventory control, real-time environmental monitoring, and compliant traceability. Through IoT and artificial intelligence technologies, it intuitively presented the core advantages of making laboratory operations "visible, controllable, and optimizable", and how to solve pain points of traditional laboratories such as redundant manpower, high error rate, high compliance costs, and data fragmentation.
In the discussion session, the two parties conducted in-depth exchanges on the current status, core pain points and digital upgrading needs of Coca-Cola CPS laboratory operations. The Coca-Cola team highly recognized iLabService's "three-phase transformation methodology" and successful cases in the FMCG and pharmaceutical industries, especially focusing on the practical value of the solution in compliance assurance, energy efficiency optimization and cost control. Previously, the digital project of the QA center built by iLabService for a global beverage customer has achieved remarkable results: 50% reduction in manual work for inventory management, 200% improvement in inventory efficiency, and 30% reduction in annual procurement costs, which is highly consistent with Coca-Cola CPS's operational optimization goals.
Kenny said: "As a benchmark enterprise in the global FMCG industry, Coca-Cola has set an example for the industry with its standardized and refined laboratory operation requirements. iLabService has always been committed to optimizing every link of laboratory operations through technological innovation. This exchange with the Coca-Cola CPS team has enabled us to more accurately grasp the core needs of digital intelligence in FMCG laboratories. We look forward to taking this exchange as a starting point, combining the advantages of both parties to create customized solutions, and helping Coca-Cola achieve dual improvements in laboratory operation efficiency and compliance levels."
Libo Weng, General Manager of Shanghai Plant at Coca-Cola CPS, affirmed iLabService's technical strength and solutions: "Under the wave of digital transformation, laboratories, as the core hub for product R&D and quality control, are crucial for digital intelligent upgrading. iLabService's full-link solution accurately addresses industry pain points. We look forward to deepening cooperation with iLabService in the future, empowering laboratory operation innovation with technology, and achieving sustainable development goals."
This meeting built an efficient communication bridge for both parties and clarified potential cooperation directions. In the future, iLabService will continue to deepen its presence in the field of smart laboratories, and empower more industry benchmark enterprises to realize laboratory operation transformation with "automated, intelligent and globalized" solutions, jointly building a new ecosystem of efficient, safe and compliant smart laboratories.
