Main Business

Against the backdrop of the digitalization of society as a whole and strong demand for engineers, we still expect sufficient growth in the Core Business of domestic engineer staffing. However, considering the possibility of a slowdown in growth due to medium- to long-term risk factors such as accelerated technological innovation automation of development, overseas relocation, and difficulty in hiring engineers, we will thoroughly pursue “evolution” of our Core Business to respond to changes in customer demand and secure skilled engineers to differentiate us from our competitors and establish a competitive advantage.

Examples of projects of our core business;

• MBD Development project for connected cars
• Next-generation payment network building project for payment platform operators.
• Designing and programming of learning packages for universities
• Cancer research in early drug discovery research department of a pharmaceutical company such as analyzing and screening of compounds
• Management of a re-development construction project of station premises

In the Solution Business, we will support our customers in solving their various technological issues by providing optimal solutions through the combination of digital and conventional technologies available inside and outside the Group, in response to rapidly growing digitalization needs under the “new normal.”In addition, we have established a new Center of Intelligence (COI) organization to accurately assess and ascertain trends in technologies, solutions, and markets not only in Japan but also around the world, and to formulate strategies for the Group’s Solution Business that can be applied globally. The COI will promote the realization of organic growth, as well as select M&A target and alliance partners.The Solution Business comprises services in the area of cutting-edge digital technologies that customers are facing problems in dealing with, as well as services using conventional technologies, where the engineers stationed at customers acquire the projects themselves. (As a definition, the term also includes conventional technology-related project-type services acquired by our sales staff.)

Examples of Projects;

• Manufacturing company
  Service offered: Building products manual management system and make it cloud-based.
  Technology area : Public Cloud, AWS (Amazon Web Service)
• Pharmaceutical Company
  Service offered : Modeling and docking simulation of antibody
  Technology area: AI/Data Science (Material Informatics Solution: Resource development support)
• Housing Maker
  Service offered : Construction of a new office building
  Technology area: Designing, architecting, implemental designing, BIM model creation, construction drawing creation

The Engineer Training Business commercializes the engineer training process by selling the engineer training curriculum and educational content developed in the Core Business to external corporate customers and individuals. We plan to expand this business as a source of revenue generated from the evolution of the Core Business, while at the same time contributing to the improvement of the environment in Japan, in which the shortage of engineers is becoming chronic.

In the DX Promotion Business, we will first conduct digital transformation of the Group’s vast amount of information on recruitment, training, work experience, skill development, and other aspects. By accumulating and analyzing market price data on engineers and technical skills, as well as the effectiveness of education and training, we will improve operational efficiency and maximize the lifetime value of our engineers. We will build a business model around this know-how in the medium- to long-term and sell it to our customers.

As practical measures;

• We will lead engineers to the right positions which match their market value by correctly understanding the skill data of individual engineers.
• We will propose appropriate training programs and/or reskilling programs based on individual engineers.
