Serendip Holdings (7318) announced on the 28th that they have entered into a business partnership with BPM and will start offering solutions combining the products of both companies for small and medium-sized manufacturing companies.

Through this partnership, Serendip Holdings' 'HiConnex' and BPM's equipment maintenance specialized system 'SUKKHA' will be combined to provide a comprehensive solution to address challenges in manufacturing sites. Additionally, they will start offering 'factory diagnosis services' not only for the manufacturing industry but also for the food industry, aiming to provide even more effective services in the future.

In recent years, small and medium-sized manufacturing companies have faced challenges such as labor shortages, difficulty in inheriting skills due to skilled workers retiring, and the need for productivity improvement. To address these issues, it is essential to accurately understand the situation on the ground and engage in improvement activities based on data.

The company has been using 'HiConnex' to visualize the actions of workers and production performance, supporting productivity improvement and talent development. On the other hand, BPM provides the cloud-based equipment data management system 'SUKKHA' utilizing IoT, achieving efficiency in maintenance operations and cost reduction.

Through this strategic partnership, combining the strengths of both companies, they aim to provide more effective solutions for the challenges faced by small and medium-sized manufacturing companies. They will also start the 'factory diagnosis services' for the food industry, providing comprehensive support tailored to the field of food production.
