The value BigM provides
Designing Supply Chains and Logistics Making Logistics a Source of Competitiveness
BigM helps Japanese industries to develop roadmaps, calculate cost-effectiveness, adopt technologies, and develop new solutions by utilizing digital technologies so that the sophisticated and precise supply chain and logistics fields that have been cultivated over the years can take a leap forward and become a source of flexibility and competitiveness in response to change
Challenges faced by Japanese companies
In many Japanese companies, the position of the logistics and supply chain department is seen as a cost center, and the priorities of responding to change and investment are suppressed, and the consideration of digitalization and improvement of analytical capabilities necessary to improve competitiveness is put on the back burner.
The root causes of current issues and countermeasures are uncertain
Lack of clear idea of what technology solutions are needed
No clear roadmap for implementation and development linked to business reforms

Supply Chain Design 4.0
Continuous changes in the business environment require the essential capability to enable ongoing design and quantitative decision-making in the realm of supply chain logistics strategy. In addition to the traditional mainstream metrics of cost/benefit and service, we advocate for the use of next-generation supply chain design technologies that quantify risk factors and enable decision-making that takes into account environmental metrics, primarily focusing on GHG emissions. To support these objectives, our approach encompasses a collaborative and flexible architecture.
