Infomart to Launch Early Adopter Version of New Service 'BP Expense Reimbursement' Specialized for the Construction Industry in May 2026

Infomart Corporation (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Shin Kimura; hereinafter 'the Company'), which streamlines all types of business operations with the power of digital, announces the release of a new service, 'BP Expense Reimbursement,' optimized for the unique expense management of the construction industry. An early adopter version is scheduled for release in May 2026, with a full-scale launch planned for January 2027.

By linking with project information such as construction sites and properties from our 'BtoB Platform TRADE,' this service enables the management of on-site reimbursements and petty cash, which were previously difficult to track with invoice management alone, by associating them as costs for each construction project. By digitizing the analog cash expenditures that have been invisible at many construction sites, we will reduce the complex and burdensome journal entry tasks and achieve accurate budget vs. actual management on a site-by-site basis, contributing to the productivity improvement of both back-office and on-site operations.

*This press release is an announcement of a planned service launch, and details such as the launch timing, service name, and functions are subject to change.

■ Background to the Service Launch

In the construction industry, various forms are exchanged with many partner companies. Our 'BtoB Platform TRADE' has expanded its use to general contractors, subcontractors, and their partner companies, contributing to the industry's productivity improvement by digitizing the cumbersome form processing tasks between companies in the construction industry.

However, in the area of expense reimbursement within a company, general systems could not fully support the unique operations of the construction industry, such as construction code management, cost accounting, and petty cash management, leaving a challenge where analog operations using paper and Excel tend to remain. By providing a service that also supports the practical needs of the construction industry in expense reimbursement, we will achieve further improvement in overall business efficiency.
