As a result, employees became more motivated to build their IT skills, and the company put in place a framework for developing and assigning digital talent internally. This enabled it to drive DX on its own initiative while minimizing reliance on external providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the company introduced 21 systems and tools over three years, achieving a range of results such as improved business processes, real-time data visualization, and reduced paper-based work. This rapid execution was highly recognized, earning the company the Grand Prize in \u201cDX Selection 2023.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Company B<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"598\" src=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image7-2.png\" alt=\"\u4e2d\u5c0f\u4f01\u696d\u306eDX\u6210\u529f\u4e8b\u4f8b\" class=\"wp-image-4631\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image7-2.png 1024w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image7-2-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image7-2-768x449.png 768w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image7-2-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-case-heading\">Achieving Both Labor Savings and Stable Operations Through DX<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Company B manufactures plastic products in Gunma Prefecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company developed its own production management system that operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, automating material receiving and issuing as well as product removal processes. By centrally managing everything from raw material receipt to production and shipment in a single system, it helps prevent human error, maintain consistent quality, and ensure safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These labor-saving measures reduced wasted working time and helped lower personnel and operating costs. As a case study that successfully balanced workstyle reform with continuous operations, the initiative was selected as the runner-up Grand Prix winner in the DX Selection 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Company C<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image2-3.png\" alt=\"\u4e2d\u5c0f\u4f01\u696d\u306eDX\u6210\u529f\u4e8b\u4f8b\" class=\"wp-image-4626\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image2-3.png 500w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image2-3-300x209.png 300w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image2-3-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-case-heading\">Achieving \u201cadd-on DX\u201d by leveraging existing technologies<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Kobata Gauge Manufacturing, which produces control instruments such as pressure measurement devices, leveraged its proprietary measurement technologies to develop a retrofit IoT sensor unit that can digitalize existing mechanical instruments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Factory sites have long faced challenges when inspecting conventional mechanical instruments, including safety risks and reading errors. The company developed its products around the concept of making them easy for anyone to implement while continuing to use existing equipment as is, enabling remote monitoring and visualization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many small and medium-sized enterprises, advancing DX without replacing existing equipment is a practical and effective approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Company D<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image5-2.png\" alt=\"\u4e2d\u5c0f\u4f01\u696d\u306eDX\u6210\u529f\u4e8b\u4f8b\" class=\"wp-image-4629\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image5-2.png 1200w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image5-2-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image5-2-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image5-2-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image5-2-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image5-2-930x620.png 930w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-case-heading\">Reducing unnecessary orders with a proprietary AI engine<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Company D provides AI\u00d7R Tailor, a service that recommends the appropriate uniform size based on images and basic information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users simply enter image data, height, weight, age, and other information in the web app, and AI analyzes their body measurements to recommend the optimal size. This system helps reduce excess inventory, ordering errors, and waste, while improving operational efficiency and optimizing costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another major benefit is that there is no need to set aside time or space for measurements, reducing the burden on frontline teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Company E<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1647\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image9-2.png\" alt=\"\u4e2d\u5c0f\u4f01\u696d\u306eDX\u6210\u529f\u4e8b\u4f8b\" class=\"wp-image-4633\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image9-2.png 1647w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image9-2-300x187.png 300w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image9-2-1024x637.png 1024w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image9-2-768x477.png 768w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image9-2-1536x955.png 1536w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image9-2-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1647px) 100vw, 1647px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-case-heading\">Using the cloud to make management metrics visible<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Company E manufactures confectionery products and sells them through its directly operated stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, it took time to understand figures related to inventory and ordering. The company introduced a cloud-based core system that manages sales and production in an integrated way. By also combining it with BI tools and a cloud-based POS register, the company can visualize data such as sales, billing, and purchasing, enabling faster management decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, the solution not only improves operational efficiency but also helps reduce costs by minimizing inventory losses. Another key feature is the use of cloud services, which enables a smooth process from implementation through the start of operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Company F<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"752\" height=\"564\" src=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image6-2.png\" alt=\"\u4e2d\u5c0f\u4f01\u696d\u306eDX\u6210\u529f\u4e8b\u4f8b\" class=\"wp-image-4630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image6-2.png 752w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image6-2-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image6-2-16x12.png 16w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 752px) 100vw, 752px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-case-heading\">Leveraging in-house development experience to expand DX across the entire region<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Drawing on its own experience in improving business operations, Company F developed an in-house information management system for hotels and traditional Japanese inns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Building on that expertise, the company offers Satoyama Connect, a regional tourism DX platform. It centralizes information on accommodations, restaurants, activities, and more, creating a system that supports everything from reservations and sales to data analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This made it possible for the entire region to create customer touchpoints and use tourist behavior data to develop visitor-attraction initiatives and new event plans. It is a strong example of DX extending beyond a single company to enhance the value of the whole region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Company G<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"752\" height=\"564\" src=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image4-3.png\" alt=\"\u4e2d\u5c0f\u4f01\u696d\u306eDX\u6210\u529f\u4e8b\u4f8b\" class=\"wp-image-4628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image4-3.png 752w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image4-3-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image4-3-16x12.png 16w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 752px) 100vw, 752px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-case-heading\">Using the Cloud to Reduce On-Site Workloads and Improve Administrative Operations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Company G, which operates taxi and automotive maintenance businesses, faced challenges in its sightseeing taxi business due to overreliance on individual employees and inefficient labor management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To address this, the company developed a web-based business management system that allows schedules and daily reports to be entered and submitted in the cloud. As a result, it not only reduced the burden on drivers who are not stationed at the office, but also improved the efficiency of sales calculations and administrative operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This case demonstrates how the company improved both frontline working conditions and back-office operations at the same time.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"section-2\" class=\"wp-block-group smile-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><div class=\"smile-section__head\"><div class=\"smile-section__number\">02<\/div><h2 class=\"smile-section__title\">Challenges in Advancing DX for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1282\" src=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image8-2.png\" alt=\"\u4e2d\u5c0f\u4f01\u696d\u306eDX\u6210\u529f\u4e8b\u4f8b\" class=\"wp-image-4632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image8-2.png 1920w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image8-2-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image8-2-1024x684.png 1024w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image8-2-768x513.png 768w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image8-2-1536x1026.png 1536w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image8-2-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image8-2-930x620.png 930w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Small and medium-sized enterprises are often more cautious than large companies when it comes to advancing DX. This is due to challenges such as the following.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">The company has few employees with in-house IT and digital expertise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many small and medium-sized businesses lack dedicated IT staff or talent to drive DX initiatives. As a result, they often struggle to know where to start, making it difficult to move their efforts forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">The budget available for system investments is limited<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Large-scale system implementations require upfront investment and ongoing operating costs. With limited budgets, it can be difficult to assess return on investment, which may delay decisions on whether to proceed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Difficulty changing existing corporate culture and business practices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When long-standing practices or workflows that depend on specific individuals have become entrenched, resistance to new systems often arises. Because DX involves not only adopting technology but also changing organizations and ways of working, companies need to overcome this barrier.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"section-3\" class=\"wp-block-group smile-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><div class=\"smile-section__head\"><div class=\"smile-section__number\">03<\/div><h2 class=\"smile-section__title\">The benefits of advancing DX for small and medium-sized enterprises<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image1-3.png\" alt=\"\u4e2d\u5c0f\u4f01\u696d\u306eDX\u6210\u529f\u4e8b\u4f8b\" class=\"wp-image-4625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image1-3.png 800w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image1-3-300x180.png 300w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image1-3-768x461.png 768w, https:\/\/smilesoftware.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image1-3-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While these challenges exist, small and medium-sized enterprises are often well positioned to see the benefits of DX more directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Strengthen organizational capabilities through talent development<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Precisely because IT talent is in short supply, gradually developing talent within your organization can lead to significant transformation. When employees acquire new technologies and ways of thinking, it directly strengthens the competitiveness of the entire company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Cloud Adoption Helps Keep Initial Costs Low<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent years, a wide range of cloud services has become available at relatively low cost. As a result, companies can now improve operations and enhance information sharing without making major capital investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Reduce dependence on individual employees and make it easier to pass on technical skills and know-how<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By preserving analog workflows and individual-dependent know-how as data, companies can make it easier to transfer knowledge to successors. This is a major advantage for small and medium-sized enterprises, which often face labor shortages and business succession challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading smile-subheading\">Respond more quickly to change<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because small and medium-sized businesses tend to have relatively compact organizations, they have the advantage of being able to make decisions and execute quickly. By starting small and improving rapidly, they are well positioned to see the benefits of DX.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"section-4\" class=\"wp-block-group smile-section\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><div class=\"smile-section__head\"><div class=\"smile-section__number\">04<\/div><h2 class=\"smile-section__title\">Summary<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n<p>In this article, we introduced seven successful DX case studies from small and medium-sized enterprises and explained the challenges and benefits of driving DX initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DX for small and medium-sized businesses does not necessarily need to begin with major system investments.
