MOCHITEC is supporting AX of head office functions at Ricoh IT Solutions, the IT arm of the Ricoh Group. The first phase reformed performance management operations that leaned on manual work and specific individuals. MOCHITEC ran a four-month PoC on a data analysis foundation and business automation, with a 30-40% workload reduction expected. The second phase, AI agentization of the asset management system, has begun.
Ricoh IT Solutions set an operating profit target in its management strategy toward 2030 and named head office productivity as part of its earning power. The bottlenecks were manual data collection and Excel-based reporting, group systems that coexisted with its own core systems, and limited in-house resources. MOCHITEC was brought in for AI knowledge and the ability to work on the operational front lines.
Its AI Ready Method started with operations and data preparation, ran scrum in two-week sprints over roughly four months, introduced SSOT in management control, and built a DWH. The second phase is already underway.
