Perspectives on digitization

Thank you for your interest and continued support.
This is Takahashi from the Marketing Plan Research Laboratory.


Many company presidents wish to eradicate internal fraud.
There are even more salespeople who lure them with sweet talk to fulfill that wish.


・Reselling inventory
・Covering up mistakes
・Clocking in for others
・Collusion with business partners (fraudulent quotes)
・Inflating expense reports
・Embezzlement, fraudulent ordering
・Hiring based on personal connections
・Data theft


Fraud involving people, goods, money, time, and information is rampant.
Moreover, these issues run deep.
It is best not to assume that a "magic wand" in the form of a system can solve everything.


・Regular reassignments
・Conduct unannounced inspections disguised as external audits
・Publishing (making transparent) unit prices and their basis
・Ensure strict alignment between revenue and cost
・Calculate average work hours
・Enter into (legally valid) contracts with employees


As shown above, even without a system,
The best approach is to keep a close eye on things using manual methods.


That's all, Thank you for reading.
