'Everything You Need in One Book' - Local Government Procurement Service 'Smart Government' Publishes Reiwa 8 (2026) Catalog!

Jointex Company (hereinafter "Jointex"), an in-house company of Plus Corporation (Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Tadahisa Imaizumi) that engages in the wholesale of stationery, office supplies, office lifestyle products, and various services, published the 2026 (Reiwa 8) edition of the new catalog for its "Smart Government" procurement service, which comprehensively supports the procurement operations of local governments, on April 1, 2026. This catalog strictly curates products required in various administrative scenes, including disaster prevention, BCP, elections, and public facilities. It achieves an overwhelming volume of 1,444 pages, an increase of 64 pages from the previous issue, with listed items expanding by about 2,400 to approximately 34,000 items. Furthermore, the official website features about 190,000 frequently used items across diverse scenarios, backed by a rapid delivery system providing next-day delivery for orders placed by 17:30 at the latest. In addition, by linking with external supplier EC sites, we offer a rich lineup of over 17.5 million items, including those not listed in the catalog, contributing to a one-stop procurement operation for local governments. Moreover, the web functions that support administrative efficiency have evolved. We have newly released a "Form Consolidation Function" that combines separate order details into one, and conversely, a "Split Function" that divides them by budget category. This contributes to reducing bank transfer fees and alleviating the burden of budget management. Moving forward, as an "Administrative Reform Partner," we will continue to support the creation of an environment where municipal employees can focus on their core mission of public service through our proprietary service expansions. ■ Solving "Tasks and Scenes of Use" with Design! An at-a-glance Layout We introduced "Category Headings" tailored to use scenes and target users, such as "Shelter Supplies" and "Resident Distribution Items," enhancing convenience. The catalog adopts a layout structured by best-selling categories and enriched specification comparison tables, ensuring that even first-time users can select products without hesitation. We focused on a thoroughly user-friendly catalog design so that users can reach their desired pages without getting lost, even during busy tasks. ■ Dramatically Reducing Administrative Burden! Smart Web Integration Features Newly equipped with form consolidation and splitting functions that answer requests like "I want all invoices combined into one" or "I want to split them by budget categories"! Batch downloading via the Web is now possible, simultaneously achieving paperless operations and time-saving. ■ Massive 45-Page Feature on "Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) Supplies" We have compiled a massive 45-page special feature on "MRO Supplies," which was highly requested by staff members. We pursued the convenience of having "everything in one book," from specialized tools to cleaning and packaging materials. ■ Total Proposals for Disaster Prevention and BCP Measures In a 148-page disaster prevention feature, we comprehensively cover preparations for weather disasters and earthquakes. In addition to material provision, it includes operational support solutions such as the stockpile management system "BxLink+" and the AI-utilized FAQ system "Fureai Concierge." Through "Category Headings," we have devised ways to make selecting shelter supplies and resident distribution items more intuitive. "We always use it. That's why we don't hesitate in an emergency." "Smart Government" goes beyond being just a place to purchase goods...
