Furthermore, based on past cases, the probability of earthquakes of similar magnitude occurring after a major earthquake is 10-20%. Therefore, in areas that experienced strong shaking, please be aware of the possibility of earthquakes with a maximum seismic intensity of 5 Upper for about one week after the initial earthquake. In particular, larger earthquakes often occur within the next two to three days.

Hokkaido, which was the epicenter this time, is one of Japan's important production and logistics hubs within the nationwide supply chain, covering everything from agricultural products to manufacturing. During an earthquake, damage or shutdown of facility equipment does not only result in losses for the company itself but also poses a risk of stagnation across the entire wide-area distribution network.
In corporate BCP (Business Continuity Planning), how to reduce such risks is currently a critical issue.
To eliminate uncertainties in the face of unpredictable disasters through technology.
ProP biz supports companies that sustain the national supply network by providing a more effective business continuity environment from a technological perspective.
