◼︎About SUMiTAS, Inc.
・Our strength lies in the synergy between the sale of pre-owned homes and home renovations
SUMiTAS Co., Ltd. operates in a wide range of fields, from real estate brokerage to renovations and property acquisition and resale.
The company’s strength lies in its business model, in which the Sales Division and the Construction Division work closely together to provide one-stop support for everything from the purchase of pre-owned homes to their renovation.
◼︎Challenges Before Implementation
・Communication breakdown due to “no photos, no drawings”
When sales representatives consulted with the construction department regarding renovations, the lack of “on-site photos” and “accurate blueprints” posed a major challenge.
In addition, sales representatives were spending a great deal of time and effort on site surveys and taking measurements, which was cutting into the time they should have been dedicating to “negotiating with customers.”
◼︎Scanat How We Discovered It and Why We Adopted It
・Expectations for reduced man-hours and increased sales through “systematization”
At a trade show,Scanat we learned about the solution and decided to implement it with the goal of reducing the “effort and time” required for on-site surveys conducted by our sales and trading staff.
Upon implementation, we held a company-wide briefing session led by staff from natto establish a smooth operational framework.
◼︎Benefits of Implementation
・A 30–50% increase in the number of quotes generated! Profits from purchasing and reselling have also improved.
Since implementing the system, the speed and accuracy of our renovation proposals have improved dramatically.
Before: Employees would assess the situation on-site based on their own judgment. This often resulted in insufficient information when reporting to their supervisors.
After: Visualize the site using 3D models. Share accurate information with your supervisor and the company.
With fewer on-site visits, the number of quotes we prepare has increased by 30–50% compared to before we implemented the system.
In addition, the number of sales meetings with customers has increased significantly.
In our property acquisition and resale business as well, we have established a system that generates increasing profits year after year, thanks to our ability to accurately assess purchase prices and renovation requirements based on 3D models.
