Background of Implementation
Yokogawa Rental & Lease is a joint venture established by Yokogawa Electric Corporation and Fuyo General Lease Co., Ltd., operating in the "Rental Business" and "System Business" sectors. Furthermore, under the theme of "From Ownership to Usage," the company develops subscription-based businesses centered on IT solutions (software). As part of a project to overhaul their core systems, the company introduced Microsoft Japan's "Dynamics 365" (CRM) to strengthen their sales organization.
To reduce the operational burden of registering corporate data into "Dynamics 365," they simultaneously implemented the customer data integration solution "uSonar," which is equipped with "LBC," one of Japan's largest corporate master databases, enabling automatic data maintenance and unification. Additionally, they introduced the business card management app "uMeishi" to achieve automatic linking and immediate utilization of newly registered business card data with corporate data.
* uMeishi was discontinued in August 2025. The currently available business card management application is mSonar, which features significantly enhanced functionality.
Benefits of Implementation
1. Utilize LBC codes as the key to integrate corporate data into Dynamics 365 customer management information.
2. Achieve visualization and linkage between corporate data and business card data through the use of uMeishi.
3. Enable immediate data utilization via the Dynamics 365 integration adapter.
