In the future, amidst uncertainty and an unclear outlook, securing profits and continuing manufacturing in Japan requires not only low-cost responses but also more to survive. This seminar will specifically explain how to advance production reforms that strengthen and develop international competitiveness for continuous profit assurance. *Business owners and executives facing the following concerns are encouraged to attend: - Unable to decide whether to continue manufacturing in Japan or shift production overseas - Unable to respond to varied and small-lot production demands from customers - High-volume production is moving overseas, while domestic production is becoming small-lot, leading to declining profits - Wanting to enhance short delivery time responses to differentiate from overseas competitors*

～ The Key to Improving Quality and Production Power Reform ～ For our country's manufacturing industry, Southeast Asia has increasingly become important as both a market and a base for production activities in recent years. However, on the other hand, changes in the external environment, including rising labor wages, are becoming more severe. Additionally, investments in equipment and the adoption of new methods often result in only temporary effects in Southeast Asia, where worker turnover is high, making it difficult to achieve fundamental transformation. Therefore, in this seminar, we will introduce know-how for fundamentally and continuously improving quality and production power and realizing reform through the development of local talent, particularly local managerial staff.
