The Realization and Implementation of Faster and more Advanced Logistics at Lower Costs
In order to achieve a faster, more advanced and more cost-competitive
logistics style while accurately responding to today's ever
changing economic needs and circumstances, Maruni conducts
research and development (R & D),
constantly pursuing a course of INNOVATION and serving as“THE
BEST PARTNER”to our clients. We are pursuing these operations
based on two pillars: R & D, to which we apply the Top-Down
method, and small group projects, to which we employ the
Bottom-Up approach. |
|
We propel our R & D by centering on the Business Division,
aiming for bolder and more innovative improvements in productivity. Needless
to say, we search for the very latest in equipment and system, which will
match our expectations in implementation widely around the globe. We even
go a little further in considering deployment from multiple angles - scale,
capability, cost, wave nature and instantaneous force. We comprehensively
consider on the whole, what genuinely aids certain business operations
in carrying out the most competitive deployment. We have the strongest
of “barrier-breaking” spirits, thinking outside the box of existing logistics
concepts when constructing the various Maruni innovative systems, all
of which proudly exhibit our outstanding productivity. Our systems are
built through an extensive and detailed process, ranging from reviewing
each job slip in current use to the reorganization of your company's entire
structure, together with indigenous development and utilization of practical
and advanced computer systems for operational innovation. With regard to RFID(IC
CHIPS), this has the potential to become a revolutionary tool, which we
aim to implement and utilize in the logistics field in a tangible way.
As such, we are now conducting test runs and further research with manufacturers
at home and abroad and striving towards implementation.

officially began in 1987. The annual total of proposals are over 2700. Such

participating in corporate creation, all of our employees are engaged in
self-development, continuously maintaining thier aspirations. In order
to assist the continual progress of each employee and in order to
assist them in maintaining his/her aspirations, since
1987 Maruni has
provided various training courses which meet the needs of the time. (An
attendance rate of 90% or higher!) Our employees are challenging themselves
to acquire and improve their knowledge and skills, which match their
operational section and level. |

Each year at Maruni, we ask employees to submit mottos and the best of these are selected to become Maruni keywords for the year. All Maruni employees work towards further enhancement, and feel a strong sense of unity.
<e.g> ○A visible office, visible layout, visible work-flow and a visible system all enable problem-solving.
○An individual who is capable of noticing a circumstantial change and can respond/handle such a change, an employee like yourself opens a path to a brighter future for Maruni. |
