Operational Structure of the Organization

Committees are set up across the board for departments to enhance their professional skills. The committees are elected once a year by the employees and identify issues that need to be addressed from a company-wide perspective. The issues that emerge from the divisions and committees are discussed at the Executive Officers' Meeting, which is attended by the executive officers and chief executive officers. In some cases, outside experts' opinions are sought to provide a multifaceted viewpoint.


Unique business system

We have created all of our business systems in-house so that even a small number of workers can comfortably carry out their jobs. We are constantly improving our operations based on the huge amount of log data we collect. In addition, by building the systems in-house, we are able to further strengthen security and divide permissions in detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

This section summarizes questions that we have received from outside the company through meetings and inquiries.
Q Isn't it unusual for an IT company to have an office in Nerima Ward?

Probably very few companies in Nerima Ward offer IT services nationally. But that is not a problem. We decided to locate in Shakuji because we thought about the people who work there and considered a less stressful place to work. If there is a disadvantage, it is that the number of large office floors is very limited.


Q Why are you involved in so many educational IT services?

One reason is that there is no general format for education, and we need a variety of know-how in order to absorb the needs of many people, so we continue to create systems for different purposes. The second is that we are trying to keep our employees happy and challenged.


Q For the number of people working, there seem to be a lot of organizations and committees.

We have a cohesive direction that the company is moving in, and we have divided the divisions by the functions needed to get there. We have also taken into consideration the fact that by dividing the divisions, we will be able to accumulate more knowledge in each area of expertise. Although we do not expect to increase the number of employees at this time, we have designed an organization and management system that can withstand an increase in the number of employees even if the number of employees were to double.


Q Why do you create your own internal business systems?

When we take a bird's eye view of all the workflows of a company, the combination of individual cloud tools creates small bottlenecks. While small, when they accumulate, a lot of time and man-hours are continually allocated, so we are building a business system from the ground up. We are never finished, and we are constantly making improvements and seeking overall optimization. In addition, by creating the system ourselves, we are able to implement detailed security measures.


Q Are you under-resourced with designers, engineers, or directors?

Since the company was founded, we have never had to work overtime for lack of resources (of course, we rarely work overtime for any other reason). In the first place, there are no numerical targets set for the entire company/department/individuals, so we simply do what we can within the scope of our regular work hours. Because of this background, we do not use any external resources such as outsourcing or temporary staffing, and we create our services entirely within the company.


Q If the company has a small number of employees, isn't the organizational management properly maintained?

We have about 18 work rules in total clearly written for those who work, and we submit the necessary ones to the Labor Standards Inspection Office. The employment regulations themselves are reviewed every three months with an outside expert. When employees join the company, they sign employment contracts and confidentiality agreements, receive security training, and all employees attend a compliance seminar at least once every three months.

The organization is divided into divisions, with division managers appointed as chiefs and chiefs as executive officers, and management is carried out with authority determined by the Rules on Administrative Authority. All employees' attendance is managed online, and when overtime hours occur outside of regular hours, an automatic e-mail is sent to the manager the following morning.

The Risk Management Committee and Quality Management Committee have been established to conduct internal audits once a month to identify issues and confirm the progress of countermeasures across all departments. As for external audits, we undergo an information security ISMS audit once a year, a financial audit by an accounting firm, and an on-site Privacy Mark audit once every two years.
