In recent years, the Japanese aging infrastructure – including streets, airports, water supply and sewage systems and public facilities – has led to numerous serious accidents across the country. In addition, the financial restrictions of the local governments together with the declining birth and aging population have deteriorated the lack of work and increased the challenges in construction and infrastructure management. These not only reduce daily convenience for the residents, but also hinder regional economic activities, which may lead to a decline in the international competitiveness of Japan and a further increase in the gap between urban and rural areas.
The JV plans to take on a leading role in answering these critical problems by using advanced digital technologies, including AI, in the Infrone Group. The introduction of data-controlled models will accelerate from the optimization of the operating costs and the creation of strategic IT investments at management levels to improve productivity in construction and infrastructure sites. The JV will pursue these initiatives through a multifaceted approach that supports the creation of new companies as a strategic think tank, which drives business reform through data analysis and manages continuous digital transformation.
The joint venture will also be responsible for promoting specialized talents for these functions and managing IT investments and governance in the Infroneer Group. The JV will carry out the following initiatives:
- Implementation of a data -controlled administrative model:
The JV will postpone the current business management model of the Infroneer Group to a data-controlled, based on scientific knowledge and use the AI and other technologies to improve management decisions. First, the JV will create a digital platform that connects data such as personnel, costs and processes in the entire value chain of sales, design, procurement and construction in the construction and construction business. The JV will implement a management cockpit that visualizes the data aggregated in this platform, which can be used in the future by other business departments to optimize the assignment of human resources and costs. - Improvement of productivity on construction sites:
The JV aims to improve productivity through the use of digital technology and the increased wages, which means that the infroner group and the industry become more attractive and improve sustainability in both. For example, the joint venture will implement a system that uses the technology that combines 360-degree camera and BIM (building information modeling) in order to reduce the load through reinforcement inspections that make up about 10% of working hours on construction sites. In addition, the JV will develop and provide solutions in order to make time-consuming estimates more efficient and to investigate the opportunity to propose institutions of the next generation that lead to work reductions and unmanned operating processes in manufacturing and logistics locations. - Improvement of efficiency and quality in infrastructure operation:
For infrastructures such as roads and public institutions that are owned by communities, the JV will propose and promote efficiency through knowledge of the private sector and digital technologies. So far, infroneer and accenture have been together at the construction of EAM (*1) software for the first toll road in Japans in the Aichi Road concession, a member of the Infroneer Group, and for the development of solutions to reduce costs for supply costs for the Miura sampling involved.
