Gran Manibus, a member of Sumitomo Corporation and SCSK Group, has launched "Gyoryu," a next-generation DX consulting service that combines AI and consultants, starting May 2026. This service utilizes PC screen recording data and generative AI to visualize and structure business operations, automatically generating improvement proposals. Consultants then intervene to make judgments and designs based on these results, leading to high-quality DX measures that reflect actual business conditions and aim for an ideal future state (To-Be).

Gran Manibus Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Miguel Angel Estevez Abe; hereinafter "Gran Manibus") launched "Gyoryu" (pronounced "gyo-ryu"), a next-generation DX consulting service, in May 2026. "Gyoryu" is a name that represents the philosophy of visualizing and redesigning operations as a flow of work, which have traditionally tended to be organized individually.
In this service, generative AI, trained with the experiential knowledge cultivated by Gran Manibus consultants in the field, analyzes and structures business execution data, automatically generating improvement proposals related to the flow of operations. Furthermore, based on these results, consultants participate in judgment and design, proposing DX measures that lead to an ideal future state (To-Be) of operations, reflecting actual business conditions.

### 1. Differences between Traditional DX Review and "Gyoryu" (Before / After)
#### Before: Traditional DX Review Approach
In traditional DX reviews, to understand the current state of operations, it was necessary to organize operations by repeatedly interviewing each person in charge and then create documents such as operation lists and flowcharts based on that content.
This approach had the following challenges:
- Both the person in charge and the consultant were tied up for long periods.
- Business understanding depended on interview results, making it prone to omissions and inconsistencies in operations.
- It took time to understand operations and create documents, often prolonging the entire DX review.
#### After: DX Review with "Gyoryu"
"Gyoryu" is characterized by its ability to acquire operational data as actually executed business data, not relying on human memory or explanations, by recording PC screens during daily work. Generative AI analyzes and structures this data, visualizing the flow of operations.
This makes it possible to:
- Understand operations while minimizing the time commitment of the person in charge in the initial phase.
- Grasp the entire operation based on executed business data, not relying on human memory or explanations.
- Significantly reduce the time required for operational inventory and document creation, speeding up the DX review.
Furthermore, Gran Manibus consultants participate in judgment and design based on AI analysis results, ensuring not only speed but also feasibility and quality in the To-Be operational design.

### 2. Service Features
#### Feature ①: Minimize On-site Burden — "Easily"
By simply recording PC screens during daily work, the necessary data for understanding operations is acquired. This significantly reduces the burden on both on-site personnel and consultants for operational inventory and interviews.
#### Feature ②: Present Operational Understanding and Improvement Hypotheses in a Short Period — "Quickly"
Generative AI analyzes recorded data, structuring the flow of operations and inefficient areas. With models trained on Gran Manibus's experiential knowledge, the initial review, which traditionally took 3-6 months, is shortened by approximately half in terms of process, and improvement hypotheses are presented.
#### Feature ③: Consultants Propose Measures and Support To-Be Operational Design — "With High Quality"
Consultants participate in judgment and design based on AI analysis results. They propose DX measures that lead to To-Be operations, considering feasibility and priorities.
### 3. Target Customers
- Companies that want to promote DX or Business Process Reengineering (BPR) but feel burdened by understanding the current state of operations or inventorying them.
- Companies that want to determine the direction of business improvement based on data.
- Companies that want to visualize individualized and complex operations as a flow of work.
- Companies that want to start DX review on a small scale.
### 4. Future Outlook
This service, "Gyoryu," supports DX and business reform initiatives by providing policy proposals and To-Be concept support through the collaboration of generative AI and consultants.
Going forward, by further evolving generative AI and incorporating more diverse operational data and knowledge, we will continuously improve the accuracy of analysis and the quality of proposals, developing the service to support DX concepts and business reforms more rapidly and sophisticatedly.
