EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The whole picture in three lines

Challenge → Proposal → Expected outcome

⚠️
CHALLENGE

Deloitte's BPR is complete. The execution phase, however, is among the most difficult class of projects in Japan — APAC × Japanese business practices × 15+ system integration × SharePoint→Data Hub migration.

Building the on-the-ground PM structure is the single biggest bottleneck.

🎯
PROPOSAL

Phase 1: a lean, elite team at ¥800,000/month thoroughly assesses the substance of the project
Phase 2: grounded in that assessment, we proactively propose the people you need

English speakers are assigned by default (no additional charge).

🚀
EXPECTED OUTCOME

Drive a "cannot-fail project" forward with confidence by minimizing talent risk.

We run alongside your team toward the shortest path to BLUE go-live in Q3 2027, matched to your decision-making speed.

01 / YOUR CHALLENGES

Framed against the final BPR report (2025/12/17)

What the design phase delivered, and the moves the execution phase now requires

Done
R&RPricing Office / Pricing Council / FP&A / Business Units / Com Ops / A&C / Legal
ProcessTo-Be business process (13 steps)
SystemTo-Be architecture + package evaluation (5 vendors)
DataRequired-data inventory & model outline / Data Hub connectivity
🚧
Actions from the new year onward (To Do)
StrategyPricing-structure calibration / SIP scheme & KPI design
Process / OrgOrg stand-up & securing required headcount / PoC / Change Mgmt
SystemFinalize implementation approach / RFP / development vendor selection
DataMaster-data cleanup / SharePoint, etc. → Data Hub consolidation

Our perspective: the four challenges are interdependent

It's not about solving any single one — you need a view that untangles how they intertwine

CORE CHALLENGE
No on-the-ground
PM structure
= the biggest bottleneck
🌏
APAC × Japanese business practices

APAC-led ADAC × BLUE strategies run in parallel. Avoiding a product-out outcome demands deep ground knowledge plus the ability to negotiate with APAC.

The 15+ system integration crux
🔌

SAP / Salesforce / Oracle DB / Tableau / Mendix / various PowerApps / Fruitier / Sma-Cla / MD-Net VAN, etc.

📦
Data migration — difficulty MAX

SharePoint / OneDrive / PowerApps (D2, K2, C2) → Data Hub. Among the most difficult class across the entire industry.

Q3 2027 BLUE go-live — fixed deadline

With an immovable end date, calibration, PoC, org stand-up, and talent acquisition must all run in parallel.

02 / COLUMN

A candid take on the scale of this project

A frank perspective from our representative, Katakawa. Please read it not as a pitch for our own capabilities, but as a sincere assessment of the difficulty.

Even at a top-tier Japanese SIer, this needs PM experience from the upper ranks

In both scale and difficulty, this is close to the maximum. Even at top-tier Japanese SIers, the level of PM assigned to a low-difficulty project versus a high-difficulty one is clearly different — and for this engagement we feel you need a PM with the skills and experience of the high-caliber tier even within such an SIer.

Objectively, you need at least several experienced people

Overall oversight (business, SI, data, infrastructure, the full APAC remit), the development team, the data-migration team, the infrastructure/network team — objectively this requires at least several experienced people.

"Honestly, the number of companies in Japan that can assemble a team at this level can probably be counted on one hand."

Success factor: deep business understanding through long-term, consistent staffing

The success factor at large user enterprises × top-tier Japanese SIers is the presence of a long-tenured person on the SIer side who understands the client's business better than the client's own employees do. The key is a team pairing a veteran who knows the business and systems inside out × a sharp, capable young talent.

→ That's why this proposal is designed as two parallel steps — "assess → propose talent" — with the ultimate goal of leaving people who put down deep roots within your organization.

03 / OUR PROPOSAL

The 2-step engagement at a glance

The two phases run in parallel, not sequentially — we assess while progressively proposing the people you need

PHASE 1 Month 1+ (intensive) / ongoing reviews thereafter

Thoroughly assess
the substance of the project

A lean, elite team within the ¥800,000/month budget runs an intensive current-state assessment and risk / hot-spot diagnosis. The diagnostic results become the very basis for Phase 2.

  • Identify the gaps between on-the-ground operations and the To-Be process
  • Assess the difficulty of 15+ system integration and data migration
  • Sharpen the picture of the talent profiles and skill requirements needed
  • Top-10 risks and an initial draft of mitigations
PHASE 2 In parallel with Phase 1 (Month 2+)

Proactively propose
the people you need

Scale adjusted by discussion

Grounded in the Phase 1 assessment, we continuously propose people who match the requirements from our network. You interview → we assign, on repeat.

  • Align on the talent profile (MUST / WANT / culture)
  • Candidate introductions from us (on a rolling basis)
  • First-pass screening by us
  • Interview scheduling with you (repeated)

CHEMISTRY OF SPECIALISTS

"PM" spans many positions.
This needs an "Avengers-style" team composition.

On an engagement that simultaneously demands business × systems × data × APAC negotiation × management perspective, the probability of success is higher with a team of specialists who each excel in their domain and complement one another than with reliance on a single superman PM.

📌 Role ≠ headcount — one person can cover multiple roles

The roles above represent "the skill areas required," not one fixed person per role. Because our members hold strengths across multiple domains, a testing/QA professional can also cover requirements definition, and a technical advisor can carry business design and basic design end-to-end. By having one person cover multiple roles, you optimize both headcount and cost.

🎯 K.O (deputy PM support / finance & accounting)
Deputy PM + requirements definition · Solution BA · management-control review (professional-level in the Pricing domain)
🏗️ T.M (technical advisor)
Technical advisor + requirements definition · basic design · data migration · platform evaluation end-to-end
⚡ T.O (AI / automation)
AI/automation + can also cover requirements definition · QA · data-workflow design
🔍 QA / design review (QA Lead)
QA/design review + can also handle requirements definition · Solution BA (strong at deepening requirements from a testing lens)
🌐 Overseas-based tech lead
English liaison + also covers technical-domain review · technical-translation
🎓 PM Lead (full-time senior PM)
Overall oversight + business analysis · requirements definition · management × IT review

*For clarity, the three-tier plans below place one person per role, but in practice the same coverage can be achieved with fewer people through multi-role coverage. We'll discuss team optimization at kickoff.

06 / THREE-TIER PLANS

Three budget plans built on headcount × rate × duration

Assuming a project duration of 1 year (standard) to 1.5 years (extension scenario), with headcount composed in three steps

BRONZE | 2 PM leads (0.5 PM each) + K.O deputy support

Two senior PMs to spread risk

Monthly

This assumes the other roles (BA / development / data migration / QA) are owned primarily by your internal team or other vendors. We staff two senior PMs, M.K and H.N (0.5 PM each), plus K.O support — a reassuring structure where two senior viewpoints assure quality and cover for each other's absences.

👑
M.K (age 53) / Premium senior PM
15+ yrs at major foreign-affiliated firms · finance/public sector/e-commerce / overall oversight
0.5 PM
🎓
H.N (age 52) / Senior PM bridging management & IT
SME Management Consultant · merger system integration / APAC liaison · business design
0.5 PM
💼
K.O (age 42) / Deputy support
Finance & accounting support · bridge to the Pricing business domain
0.3 PM
💡 How to read the Bronze plan

By running two senior PMs (M.K + H.N) with different strengths in parallel, you avoid single-person dependency. This is the minimal configuration, assuming implementation is led primarily by your internal team or other vendors.

SILVER | 2 PM leads + K.O + QA (4 people, leveraging multi-role coverage)

Quality assured by 2 senior PMs / requirements covered via multi-role staffing

Monthly

The Bronze plan's two senior PMs (M.K + H.N) + K.O + QA / design review. The Solution BA role is not staffed separately but covered by the four members' multi-role work. This is the practical solution that runs effective requirements definition through the two senior PMs' differing viewpoints and requirements deep-dives from a testing lens (QA).

👑
M.K (age 53) / Premium senior PM
Overall oversight + requirements definition · business analysis (multi-role)
0.5 PM
🎓
H.N (age 52) / Senior PM bridging management & IT
APAC liaison · business design + management × IT review
0.5 PM
💼
K.O (age 42) / Deputy PM support
Finance & accounting support + Pricing-domain requirements deep-dive (multi-role)
0.3 PM
🔍
QA / design review
SIT/UAT · design review + requirements definition from a testing lens (multi-role) / up to 0.6 PM
0.6 PM
💡 Why we recommend this plan

At approximately ¥44.01M cumulative over 1.5 years, this stays within the ¥50M budget envelope. With the two senior PMs' differing viewpoints and the four members' multi-role coverage, it also covers the Solution BA area — the best fit for your anticipated budget.

GOLD | 2 PM leads + full 6 roles + K.O deputy

We cover the majority of the execution resources

Monthly

We assemble two senior PMs (M.K + H.N), K.O deputy support, a technical advisor, an AI/automation engineer, a BA, a Data Migration Lead, QA, and an APAC Bridge.

📌 Market-rate comparison

If you commissioned an equivalent structure from a major SIer, you would expect roughly ¥15M–¥18M/month × 18 months = ¥270M–¥320M. Our sourcing rates are about 1/2 to 1/3 of that level.

07 / BUDGET SUMMARY

How large the final budget could grow, at maximum

The total for each of the three plans, by monthly rate × duration (1 to 1.5 years)

Plan Headcount Monthly 1-year total 1.5-year total (Max)
Bronze
2 senior PMs (0.5+0.5) + K.O
3 people
Silver Recommended
Bronze + QA / 4 people, multi-role covers BA
4 people
Gold
2 PMs + full 6 roles + K.O deputy
8+α people
*The figures above are the floor. The QA / design-review and overseas-based tech-lead roles may rise to around ¥850,000/month depending on the seniority of the assigned individual (the Gold plan's 1.5-year Max reaches approximately ¥143.1M).
📊
💡 Our recommendation

For a project of this scale and difficulty, the Silver plan strikes the best balance as the practical solution.
Assuming 1-year completion: / extended 1.5-year scenario: (within ¥50M).
Four people — two senior PMs (M.K + H.N, 0.5 PM each) + K.O deputy support + QA / design review — cover the Solution BA area through multi-role staffing. The structure stays within ¥50M cumulatively over 1.5 years.
