Considering it necessary to increase total revenue and improve operating profit margin in order to enhance its competitiveness and corporate value, the Information Development group (“ID group”) is determined to continuously attain key management performance index targets.
<Prioritized Numerical Targets>
For the term ending in March 2014
1) Total revenue: 20.0 billion yen
2) Operating profit margin: 6.3%
【Essential points of the strategy】
1. Promoting Business Operations Outsourcing strategy
In order to grow order flow, we will promote a Business Operations Outsourcing strategy* based on the overall IT outsourcing service “i-Bos24®”, which is one of our Group’s key strengths, as well as utilizing our nationwide distribution channels.
(*Providing multiple services to one customer, from software development to system operation management and BPO)
2. Promoting a global strategy
Our wholly-owned subsidiary ID Wuhan (Wuhan city, Hubei province, China) provides an overall IT service which includes software development, system operation management and BPO. In addition to providing IT support for Japanese companies, ID Wuhan intends to develop business in the Chinese market focusing on the possibility of cooperating/partnering with local leading vendors. We will also pursue further quality improvement by continuing our person-to-person exchange and the passing down of know-how between China and Japan through the Tokyo branch.
3. Expanding IT platform integration
Following the spread of cloud computing and smart phones, IT platform integration* is expected to grow. We intend to develop staff for IT platform integration in order to enhance our ability to meet customer needs in a broad and swift manner. We also aim to grow sales by strengthening our business foundation through partnerships with other firms that provide cloud-related services.
(*Designing and building low-cost, high-reliability system operation environments)
“Information Development and Softbank Telecom partner in providing corporations a service that facilitates the transition to the cloud as well as a service that utilizes smart phones.” (Jan. 4, 2011. Japanese)
4. Improving business processes
We intend to improve business processes through more appropriate assignment of staff and review of business flows following the stricter control of overtime work.
5. More efficient Group management
We will promote more efficient management by maximizing the use of the Group’s resources through the unification of managerial departments and enhancement of cooperation in business operations within the Group.
6. Enhancing human resource development
We are establishing a training/education system to help all employees proactively develop themselves. In addition to providing different training for different levels and various kinds of technology education, we have established an exchange program for employees that will enable them to acquire the latest technology and foreign language skills, with the aim of developing human resources that can work globally. We intend to focus on fostering “hybrid human resources” possessing both desirable human qualities and high technical capabilities.
