AI Transformation Makes Vietnam's Rang Dong Smart Tech Leader
The Hanoi-based company, fully known as Rang Dong Light Source and Vacuum Flask Joint Stock Company, is redefining what it means to be a traditional enterprise in the digital era. Recognized as one of Vietnam’s leading manufacturers of LED and vacuum flask products for decades, Rang Dong has developed a bold strategy centered around data and artificial intelligence. This AI transformation process has left positive impact on every aspect of its operation, from production and management to R&D and training.
The company treats data as a core asset, rather than just a by-product. Rang Dong has deployed systems to collect and analyze data across its entire value chain, from customer interactions and product development to sales and logistics. These data-driven insights power decisions, streamline operations and improve customer experience.
Advanced machine learning models predict technical failures before they occur, flag product quality issues, and optimize production lines in real time.
In the renewable energy section, AI technologies are enhancing the performance of solar panel systems by dynamically adjusting angles and energy loads.

Comprehensive Impact
Smart circuit breakers developed by Rang Dong illustrate the integration of AI into hardware. These devices use AI algorithms like Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Random Forest to analyze power fluctuations and identify potential hazards, so early warnings can be issued for operators without human intervention.
Rang Dong applies Vision Guided Robotics (VGR) and AI technologies across its production lines to raise efficiency and quality.
Systematic AI-Driven Management
But AI is not limited to production. Rang Dong is also overhauling internal management processes. Following a targeted and structured approach, the company identifies high-impact areas for digital transformation.
Nguyen Doan Ket, Vice Chairman and Head of Rang Dong's Digital and Green Transformation Committee, said an effective AI strategy must be goal-oriented, as the company aligns AI with its long-term business objectives.
He said the strategy should be systematic, involving the integration of AI in hardware, software and infrastructure.
Furthermore, in order to reach success in implementing AI, the strategy should be built on strong data, Internet of Things, partner and customer platforms, he added.
From product simulation and embedded software development to robotics and supply chain optimization, AI is deeply involved in Rang Dong’s daily operations. The company has deployed 141 robots and introduced Vision Guided Robotics (VGR), which is the tool to assist machines to perceive and adapt to their environments.
AI tools are also transforming Rang Dong's market-facing operations. Sales data, customer feedback and inventory levels are integrated with ERP and CRM systems to monitor channel performance, forecast demand and manage logistics more efficiently.
AI Literacy for All
Since digital transformation demands a culture shift, Rang Dong has launched a comprehensive AI training program across three levels:
Awareness: Educating all staff on what AI is and how it affects their roles.
Basic application: Training employees to use tools like RPA and data visualization software.
Advanced development: Empowering engineers and data teams to create custom AI solutions.
Employees across departments are encouraged to share successful use cases, building a learning ecosystem that fuels continuous improvement.
Future Vision
By 2030, Rang Dong foresees a future where every employee uses a personalized AI assistant and each business unit operates with a digital twin, which is a real-time digital replica that helps monitor performance, anticipate issues and guide decision-making.
Running four R&D centers, engaging in partnerships with 14 universities and numerous innovation projects, Rang Dong is transitioning from a hardware manufacturer to a provider of smart solutions in lighting, smart homes and renewable energy.
Products are no longer just items; they have become part of a digitized, intelligent value chain powered by AI and big data.
In this transformation, Rang Dong exemplifies the future of Vietnam’s industry: the one where traditional enterprises embrace change and leverage technology to lead with purpose, efficiency and innovation.
