Success stories with Sactona
Marubeni Logistics Corporation
We introduced Sactona with the aim of sophistifying management tasks for managers.
| What the client says | "We introduced Sactona with the aim of sophistifying the management work of our managers. In the first phase, we rolled out monthly accounting data to all of our domestic distribution centers (approx. 30 locations). Because we were handling important accounting information for the company, we couldn't afford any problems, but we were able to get up and running without any major problems. We have also provided training so that we can develop it in-house, and we are currently promoting the introduction of Sactona for each of our bases' unique operations, but we have realized that one of the good points of Sactona is that it can flexibly respond to not only numerical management but also to highly unique operations such as the various management documents and work productivity management that are unique to logistics companies." |

| Background at the time of introduction |
・At our domestic distribution centers, we were manually entering a lot of similar data in order to create monthly and daily financial reports. In addition to this, there was the issue that the managers at these centers were spending a lot of time on data aggregation and processing, which should not have been their priority. ・We considered introducing Sactona with the aim of sophistifying the efficiency and visualizing the numerical data and thereby enabling managers to review their management duties. |
| Decisive factors for selecting Sactona |
■ Sactona is software that can be used as an interface for entering data into a database, and it is possible to reuse Excel files that are already being used for business. ■ Because Sactona has Excel UI, it is possible to minimize the burden on users and training costs. |
| Implementation Outcomes |
■Centralized and visualized business data ■Streamlined input and tabulation work ■Eliminated subjectivity of management work through the use of Sactona as an EPM application platform |
| Future developments | ■We plan to further develop visualized materials using the data accumulated through the monthly actual data and daily income and expenditure. |
