Business Engineering Corporation (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, President and CEO: Masakazu Haneda, hereinafter referred to as "B-EN-G") is pleased to announce that Fine Today Industries Co., Ltd. (Kuki City, Saitama Prefecture, CEO: Hiroto Morozumi, hereinafter referred to as "FTI") has completed the implementation of mcframe 7 within one year.
Aiming to maximize effectiveness while minimizing deadlines and costs, FTI selected mcframe 7 as its core system, which has a proven track record of implementation in the Japanese manufacturing industry. To thoroughly implement the "Fit to Standard" policy during implementation, the company collaborated with Fine Today Co., Ltd. and promoted proactive activities by internal stakeholders, as well as with Kissei Comtec Co., Ltd., an implementation partner with extensive knowledge of mcframe 7 specifications and usage know-how. By utilizing standard functions, stable operation was achieved while minimizing customization.

■Issues before implementation

• Constraints on short-term implementation: Need to complete core system implementation within one year due to transition to a new system
• System complexity and dependency on individual staff: Static business processes and scattered data in the existing system (300 SQL scripts operated by individual staff)
• Operational costs and resource constraints: The need to build a system infrastructure that can handle stable operations and future business growth with limited budgets and resources

■Introduction effects

• Achieved short-term implementation: The system was operational in one year, and the hypercare period (intensive support period after operation) was shortened by half a month compared to the plan.
• System standardization and efficiency: Centralized management of dispersed data. Create an environment that makes it easy to obtain and utilize data.
• Operational cost optimization: Realizing a cost-effective system that meets cost constraints
• Improved organizational capabilities: Through the project, the perspectives, eyes, and viewpoints of those involved are improved, leading to growth for both individuals and the organization.

■Fine Today Project Manager | Shoichi Goto

As we implemented the system under consistent priorities under the constraints of TSA, we were able to align all our team members' goals and achieve stable operation within a year thanks to the existence of mcframe, which is well-suited to the Japanese manufacturing industry, and the support of Kissei Comtec, which sincerely deals with its customers. We are pleased that we were able to achieve stable operation and a highly cost-effective system as planned at the start of our new venture as "Fine Today."

■Kissei Comtec Project Manager | Junya Ito

By sincerely responding to FTI's implementation policy of thoroughly adhering to "Fit to Standard," we were able to implement the system in a short period of time. We are honored to have been able to advance the project toward the same goal and achieve the construction of an optimal system through collaboration that transcends the boundaries between client and partner. We will continue to support FTI's sustainable growth as a trusted partner.

■Business Engineering Product Manager | Naoki Tsushima

We believe that FTI set clear priorities for itself, consistently adhered to the "Fit to Standard" approach, and each member of the team understood their role and took an active role in the project, which were key factors in achieving stable operation as planned even in a highly restrictive environment.
