Preparing IT infrastructure is vital in opening, moving, or renovating overseas office

There is a lot to do when you open, move, or renovate an overseas office. Among those tasks, the construction of various IT infrastructures requires experiences, knowledges, and expertise in IT. There is only a limited number of people who are familiar with rapidly-advancing IT technologies, but there might be many cases where you cannot afford to appoint anyone as full-time IT staff in an overseas office, which especially needs to operate with low staffing levels to keep costs low. Building IT infrastructure in an overseas office can be considered one of the most difficult tasks.

Particularly in recent years, Activity-based Working (ABW) which enables employees to autonomously design their own work-styles, is attracting attention. ABW is an office design principle that creates an environment that provides access to the tools and resources necessary for work to be done from various locations such as a cafe or home in addition to the office, so as to enhance employees' motivation and efficiency. The office IT infrastructure also plays an important role in implementing ABW.
