A New Service that Resolves Information Fragmentation in Manufacturing 'Cheaply and in Phases': Official Release of the 'SHALUCK' Series from April 2026

On April 1, 2026, Benefacus Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Michio Kitamura) will officially release the 'SHALUCK' series. This service integrates and manages design information (3D CAD, design plans, etc.) with project, sales, and production information, realizing company-wide management visualization, as well as visualization of the entire process from sales to manufacturing, know-how sharing, and productivity improvement.

This service underwent proof-of-concept verification with the cooperation of four manufacturing companies in Chiba Prefecture for the '3D Project Management Cloud,' which was selected as Chiba Prefecture's advanced digital technology utilization demonstration project (FY2025). It received high evaluations such as being 'useful for on-site operations' and 'contributing to the reduction of workload.'

**■ Development Background: The Deep-Rooted Structural Issue of 'Information Fragmentation' in SME Manufacturing** In many manufacturing businesses, information is fragmented by department, and the following situations are common:

Project/Sales Information: Excel, PDF, sales management systems, sales support systems Design Information: 3D CAD, 2D CAD, paper drawings, process planning (Excel) Production Information/Product Structure: Paper production instructions + paper drawings Process/Progress Management: Whiteboards, paper process charts Outsourcing Management: Email, FAX

This fragmentation causes inefficiencies such as personalization, duplicate work, and the inability to reuse past data, becoming a major barrier to improving productivity.

Benefacus has resolved these issues through an approach called 'conceptual data modeling (data-centric business design)' and developed 'SHALUCK' as a platform that integrates projects, product structures, and process information.

**■ Series Name Rebranded to 'SHALUCK'** **Achieving Phased Implementation with 4 Templates + RPA** Upon its official release, the name will be renewed from the previous '3D Project Management Cloud' and provided as the 'SHALUCK' series.

The SHALUCK series consists of four templates corresponding to the main business areas of the manufacturing industry.

[SHALUCK Series Structure] **SHALUCK - Project Management** Integrates project information, specifications, 3D CAD data, and structural information to centrally manage business operations on a per-project basis.
