Japan’s telecommunications carriers are facing major challenges in the industry, including a declining domestic population, government-led declines in telecommunications rates (ARPU), and declining revenues due to large-scale investments in 5G and fiber optics.

In this environment, each carrier is working to increase revenue by strengthening non-telecommunications businesses (economy zone businesses and AI/DX businesses) and enterprise businesses, but competition from hyperscalers and OTT services is forcing them to compete for market share and engage in price wars.

In addition, as carriers consider AI/DX businesses, primarily targeting enterprises, as a revenue pillar, a shortage of AI/digital talent and SI/PM talent is also a major issue.

Led by a practice lead with long-standing experience in telecommunications carrier business strategy and business development, our practice has built a support system that combines in-house professionals with expertise in business strategy and AI/DX, as well as over 50,000 freelance consultants specializing in specific fields, to address fundamental management issues.

This practice provides a step-by-step, cross-sectional approach to support clients, going from “Insight → Strategy → Execution → Growth → Social Problem Solving,” and by resolving the issues outlined above, it will achieve sustainable growth for telecommunications carriers while simultaneously creating social value by providing consumers with a better communications environment and digital lifestyle.
