[Survey] 83% of Large Enterprises are Proactive in DX, but Only 35% Achieve Real-Time Management. 80% Report 'Analog Operations' for Core System Maintenance.

LayerX, Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Yoshinori Fukushima), aiming to digitize all economic activities, conducted a survey on 'analog operations' (Note 1) and management speed associated with core system operations, targeting 100 executives at large enterprises with over 2,000 employees.

Note 1: In this survey, 'analog operations' refer to human-performed tasks such as manual data entry, transcription, data consistency checks, and input verification required to maintain core systems.

[Survey Background and Purpose] Collecting and aggregating data for management decisions becomes more time-consuming as companies grow. While large enterprises have invested in core systems to address this, manual tasks often persist. LayerX investigated the reality of 'real-time management' and the occurrence of analog operations.

[Summary] 1. 83.0% of large enterprises are proactive in DX, yet only 35.0% can grasp management data within one day. 2. 80.0% report the occurrence of 'analog operations' for core system maintenance. 3. 71.5% of companies that achieve real-time management report high levels of 'analog operations'. 4. 78.0% feel that digital investments are not yielding the expected ROI, with many feeling they create more analog work.

[Conclusion] The survey reveals that companies striving for faster management speeds are ironically burdened by more analog tasks. The issue lies not just in system selection, but in the design of pre-system business processes. Sustainable 'real-time management' requires both tool advancement and process re-engineering.
