Expansion into Cloud GIS and IDC Services and Prevention of Unprofitable Projects

「During the fiscal year, in the Ibaraki area, the Group captured demand for digital transformation at government agencies and improvements to IT infrastructure, and received orders as planned for relatively large-scale implementation projects. It worked on projects including common platforms covering all government departments, LGWAN environment development and external connectivity environment development, as well as various infrastructure development projects and information technology promotion support system projects in security-related fields, while maintenance and operations services also continued smoothly.」

「The company steadily secured orders by capturing demand for cloud migration and enhanced security, including network construction for local governments' core systems and equipment renewal projects for research institutions. Performance remained solid, supported by revenue from construction, operations and equipment renewals.」

「The company completed network construction projects, including the development of telework environments for local governments. It captured demand for cloud migration and enhanced security, and revenue from construction and operations projects remained solid.」

「GIS solution revenue tends to be concentrated in the third quarter, but revenue in the current quarter exceeded that of the previous quarter. The company also won tender projects from government agencies for which revenue is scheduled to be recognized from the fourth quarter onward.」

「In April 2022, consolidated subsidiary ＡＳロカス株式会社 entered into an agreement as one of the joint researchers in a joint research project concerning monitoring of large-scale embankment sites using GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) surveying in Kawasaki City.」

「For an IoT system for the forestry industry developed with government subsidies, the company determined that there was no prospect of resolving defects in externally procured components. Accordingly, it recognized as extraordinary losses in the quarter ¥3 million in subsidies expected to be repaid and ¥3 million in unamortized software and hardware balances.」

「Revenue declined from the previous quarter, primarily in the map information provision service, because restrictions on sales activities due to the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in fewer projects carried over from the previous fiscal year that were still in progress.」

「The company focused primarily on existing customers, local government services, forestry ICT platform-related work, and the development of firefighting GIS and disaster-prevention systems.」

「In the map information-related business, orders from government agencies related to the 2020 national census increased, while stronger sales efforts targeting private-sector customers also led to higher orders and an increased utilization rate.」

「Although some tender projects involved short delivery times and tight margins, the company secured capable partner companies and optimized employee assignments to secure engineers and proceed with the work. These efforts produced strong results in both system engineering services and contract development. In contract development in the SI and software development fields, the company delivered large display panels for public-sector systems, completed system renewal projects ordered by local governments, and worked to convert dispatch contracts into contract-based arrangements.」

「The company will establish a structure to improve productivity through project profitability management and stable quality improvement, enhance profitability in contract development, and undertake large-scale system development and construction projects on a contract basis.」

「The company received an order from a local government for forest surveying services, a forestry project outside the GIS field. It strengthened its development structure by adding a dedicated development team focused on medium- to long-term product development to its existing development activities aligned with market needs, continued developing GEOSIS, its core product, and began working on systems outside the GIS field. It also launched ROAD VIEWER, a road lane-marking inspection system.」

「As in the previous fiscal year, the company worked to win forestry ICT projects related to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' ICT Town Development Initiative for local governments. The platform was introduced at 2 municipalities, cities and towns in Ehime and Kochi prefectures. The company also continued developing its core geographic information strategy system, GEOSIS, began selling the WebGIS engine completed during the fiscal year, and adopted it as the foundation for the delivery model for forestry ICT projects.」

「The company continued developing GEOSIS, its core geographic information strategy system, and began selling the WebGIS engine completed during the quarter.」

「During the quarter, the company expanded nationwide the introduction of its forestry ICT platform and worked to win forestry ICT projects related to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' ICT Town Development Initiative. It also continued developing a WebGIS engine based on its core product, GEOSIS.」
