[Seminar Report] Breaking Free from “Reliance on Individual Expertise” That Eats Into Profits! How Can You Maximize Revenue Through Organizational Reform and Construction DX?

On July 23, 2026, we co-hosted a seminar with Shikigaku Co., Ltd. titled “
: Breaking Free from the ‘We Can’t Function Without [Name]’ Mindset—Reforming Organizations and Workplaces to Eliminate Reliance on Individuals” (
).

In this seminar, we focused on the issue of “reliance on individual expertise”—a challenge faced by many companies in the construction industry—and introduced specific initiatives that lead to improved productivity and increased revenue, viewed from the dual perspectives of organizational management andon-site digital transformation.

  

🔳The Challenge of "Reliance on Individual Expertise" Facing the Construction Industry

In the construction industry, against the backdrop of labor shortages, an aging workforce, and the need to address the “2024 Problem,” there is a greater need than ever to improve productivity.

On the other hand,

  • There are many tasks that only veteran employees can handle.
  • Know-how specific to each worksite is not shared
  • I can't delegate work to younger employees
  • Even after implementing DX tools, we aren't seeing the results we expected.

There are quite a few companies facing challenges such as these.

  

🔳Shikigaku Explains: “Organizational Reform Is Essential for Successful Digital Transformation”

Shikigaku Co., Ltd. gave a presentation on organizational management based on the perspective that “DX tools alone cannot transform an organization.”

Key points to consider when implementing organizational reform include:

  • Clarification of Scope of Responsibility (Position)
  • Clarification of Evaluation Criteria and Outcomes (Results)
  • Establishing Rules and Reporting Procedures

Based on these three key points, he explained how to build an organization that does not rely on individual judgment, drawing on actual improvement examples from a construction company.

Under the theme “Construction DX: Eliminating the ‘Black Box’ on Construction Sites and Generating Profits,” our company introduced on-site DX initiatives utilizing the 3D scanning app “Scanat ” to eliminate the “black box” on construction sites and generate profits.”

ScanatBy making use of,

  • Save and Share Site Data as 3D Models

We presented specific results from initiatives that not only reduce the workload associated with site surveys, drawing preparation, design, and estimating, but also help eliminate reliance on individual expertise—such as by reducing the need for follow-up visits, streamlining information sharing, and fostering the development of young employees.

  

🔳Driving Productivity Growth Through a Two-Pronged Approach of Organizational Reform and On-Site Digital Transformation

In this seminar, we emphasized that organizational management and on-site digital transformation should not be pursued in isolation, but rather as two interdependent pillars that, when addressed together, lead to greater results.

By standardizing not only the rules and evaluation criteria but also the information coming from the front lines, we can build an organization where everyone can make decisions and share information based on the same standards.

natGoing forward, our company will continue to provide information and host seminars aimed at helping professionals in the construction industry improve their operations.
