RPA (Robotic Process Automation), which allows software on computers to perform routine tasks that involve repeating the same operations in office work, is a convenient and low-cost way to start digital transformation (DX), and many companies are adopting it. In logistics office work, RPA can be implemented to reduce work time in various daily routine tasks such as importing shipping instruction data into the Warehouse Management System (WMS) and checking the progress of transportation. However, to successfully improve operational efficiency with RPA, careful prior work analysis is essential. It is necessary to prioritize and select tasks that can be automated, as well as to review existing workflows and systems as part of the preparation. This webinar is co-hosted by NX Research Institute, a consulting group specializing in logistics, and Stellarink, which provides unique RPA and AI-OCR solutions. It will provide detailed information on supporting the introduction of RPA in logistics office work, case studies, and tips for successfully implementing RPA. 1. How should the introduction of RPA in logistics office work be advanced? 2. Let's correctly understand RPA! Aim for increased productivity and depersonalization!

The decrease in the labor force and the aging population are causing a shortage of human resources in many industries, and the efficiency and labor-saving achieved through automation have become essential elements for enhancing corporate competitiveness. However, the introduction of automation equipment can incur significant costs, leading many companies to wonder, "What kind of automation should we pursue?" In our company, we have seen an increase in consulting requests for support in the introduction of automation equipment such as automated warehouses, AMRs, and AGVs in recent years. In this webinar, we will introduce some of these case studies. If you are interested in the latest logistics technology and the automation and labor-saving of logistics operations, we invite you to participate in this opportunity. Date and Time: June 25 (Tuesday) 14:00 - 14:50 Registration Deadline: June 21, 2023 (Friday) 18:00 Capacity: 80 people (first-come, first-served) Target Audience: - Managers in the logistics department - On-site managers and executives of logistics companies Part 1: "Towards the Introduction of the Latest Technologies to Achieve Automation in the Logistics Industry" Speaker: Senior Consultant Akifumi Nimura Part 2: "Case Studies of Efficiency Initiatives in Construction Material Logistics" Speaker: Senior Consultant Tadayuki Katakame

The Adachi Guild Transport Company, formed with the aim of achieving independence for truck drivers, has drivers who hold the national qualification of transportation management. Unlike regular companies, it does not have general administrative or accounting departments and aims for "management of a general freight automobile transportation business" by the drivers themselves. We asked about the background of choosing "Doratan" as a tool for drivers to manage operations themselves.

We have added a "Random Notification Feature" that enables advanced work sampling to the service "Logitan," which allows for easy data collection and analysis of working hours within warehouses, starting from November 15, 2022. Since its launch, "Logitan" has already been implemented in over 600 locations and is being used for visualizing logistics operations and improving business processes. A similar service, "Jobtan," is also being utilized in many factories, construction sites, and administrative departments, and the "Random Notification Feature" has also been added to "Jobtan." ● For more details, click here↓ https://www.logitan.jp/archives/1804

Shin-go Electric Co., Ltd. is a company based in Omuta City, Fukuoka Prefecture, that develops and manufactures traffic signal lights. In the past, for the process management of assembling pedestrian signal lights and vehicle signal lights, workers were required to manually write down their working hours in a process log. However, the handwritten work hour records were burdensome for the workers, and it also took time for site managers to input these handwritten records into a computer. Therefore, with the aim of digitizing process management, we decided to use the "Job-tan" tablet, which allows multiple workers to measure their working hours at various processes within the factory using tablets placed at each site.

Kiku Masamune Sake Brewery Co., Ltd. is a long-established sake brewing company founded in the second year of the Manji era (1659) during the Edo period. We inquired about the current situation of their production department at the sake brewing factory in Higashinada Ward, Kobe City, where they are working on improvements to enhance productivity by utilizing "Job-tan" to understand the status of the four work processes: "raw materials," "fermentation," "pressing," and "storage."

SUMCO Corporation manufactures and sells semiconductor silicon wafers with a global market share of approximately 30%. In the TPM Promotion Department, we have been conducting work sampling with observers to calculate standard times for each process at various factories nationwide. However, there were challenges in easily conducting work sampling during full production at the factories or when changes occurred in the processes. To replace work sampling, we decided to introduce "Jobtan," which allows for easy measurement of work time without observers.
