Cross Cat Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Mitsunori Yamane; hereinafter "Cross Cat") is launching the "Data Utilization Advisory Service," a new service that supports AI utilization by leveraging the knowledge, know-how, and implementation track record cultivated through many years in the BI business.
While interest in AI and advanced data analysis is growing, challenges are becoming apparent in the corporate field, such as "We want to utilize AI but don't know where to start" and "We introduced BI, but we can't utilize it well because the data is not prepared." Through years of DX projects, we have confirmed that many of these issues stem from the data preparation phase prior to AI or BI implementation.
We developed this service to address these issues by utilizing the vast track record, knowledge, and know-how we have accumulated in supporting PoCs and data preparation related to AI and BI utilization. One example of our efforts is the project with Tokyu Recreation Co., Ltd. (*). By visualizing movie theater data and phasing in integration with marketing data, we reduced the time required from data extraction to document creation, resulting in concrete achievements such as improved decision-making speed and a more advanced PDCA cycle.

The "Data Utilization Advisory Service" supports everything from organizing the current status to formulating problem-solving policies regarding data preparation, which is an important factor in enhancing the effects of AI implementation. Specifically, in order to organize the data held by customers into a "usable state," we organize the current situation from multiple perspectives, such as how to collect and handle data, and the operational structure of the data system infrastructure, and derive practical policies. With this service, customers can build the "organized data infrastructure" necessary to use AI effectively and promote data-driven decision-making and operational sophistication.
Cross Cat will continue to expand the service lineup of our proprietary DX promotion support framework "CC-Dash" (https://xcc-dash.jp/). We will also contribute to promoting our customers' DX through the provision of practical services in the AI era.
