OBC (Obic Business Consultants Co., Ltd., President: Shigefumi Wada, Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo), a developer and seller of core business systems including the 'Bugyo Cloud' series such as 'Kanjo Bugyo', has signed a business matching agreement with Mitsubishi HC Capital Inc. (President & CEO: Hiroki Hisai, Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo) and MUFG Finance & Leasing Co., Ltd. (President: Hiroaki Fujisue, Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo). This agreement aims to expand sales of the 'Bugyo Cloud Series', including the new lease accounting standard-compliant 'Kotei Shisan Bugyo V ERP Cloud' provided by OBC, against the backdrop of growing needs to comply with the new lease accounting standard, which will be mandatory for fiscal years starting on or after April 1, 2027.
■ Background of the Collaboration
There is now less than a year until the mandatory application of the new lease accounting standard begins. Companies face a wide range of tasks, including identifying existing contracts, assessing the impact, and reviewing management methods, placing a heavy burden on personnel. Since preparations must proceed alongside daily operations, a planned and efficient response is required.
Under the new standard, mandatory application extends broadly to listed companies, large corporations, companies with audit committees, and their subsidiaries and affiliates. Therefore, for subsidiaries and affiliates with limited specialized accounting and finance personnel, responding to the new standard while minimizing labor, time, and costs is a critical challenge. Additionally, because the regulatory revision newly subjects rental contracts and real estate lease agreements that were not previously recognized as leases to lease determination, a correct understanding of contract terms is essential.
As this regulatory revision pertains to leases, inquiries from lease-using companies to the leasing companies that are parties to the contracts are increasing. In light of this situation, OBC will collaborate with Mitsubishi HC Capital and MUFG Finance & Leasing, sharing knowledge on the new lease accounting standard and IT utilization, to provide companies with accurate understanding of the regulations and information, supporting a smooth transition.
■ Initiative Details and Collaboration Structure
This business matching agreement leverages the extensive network of lease-using companies across various industries and sizes held by Mitsubishi HC Capital and MUFG Finance & Leasing. The leasing sales representatives of both companies will introduce OBC's 'Bugyo Cloud Series', including the new lease accounting standard-compliant 'Kotei Shisan Bugyo V ERP Cloud'. This goes beyond support for existing lease contracts to provide total support for accounting operations that require review due to the new lease accounting standard. By integrally supporting everything from lease contracts to regulatory compliance, the companies will build a consistent support system, providing an environment where companies can confidently respond to the new standard.
OBC offers the 'Bugyo AI Agent New Lease Accounting Identification Cloud', which uses AI to automatically identify lease-applicable contracts from contract content, and the fixed asset management system 'Kotei Shisan Bugyo V ERP Cloud', among other 'Bugyo Cloud Series' services. Through these services, OBC aims to achieve both regulatory compliance and operational efficiency, supporting lease-using companies in a smooth and reliable transition to the new lease accounting standard. Furthermore, OBC will contribute to the overall DX promotion of back-office operations.
