Business Consulting
From AI Transformation to Strategy & New Business Creation
Our consulting team's distinctive strength lies in the seamless collaboration between consultants with extensive experience at leading consulting firms and AI/IT specialists who are actively engaged in AI research and commercial service development within our organization. This enables us to deliver consulting services that leverage cutting-edge technological insights.
AI Transformation (AI×BPR)
Fundamental redesign of business processes with AI at the core
Redesign business processes with AI agents at the core.
Simply layering AI onto existing workflows won't deliver measurable ROI. For AI agents to deliver their full potential, business processes themselves must be rebuilt with AI as a given — that's BPR (Business Process Re-engineering). From process decomposition and visualization, through AI-human role redesign, ROI measurement logic, to governance frameworks — Qualiteg delivers BPR consulting and AI engineering as one integrated service.
Challenges You May Be Facing
- AI tool licensing costs keep growing, but there's no visible cost reduction or productivity gain to show for it
- You want to embed AI into development processes and workflows, but friction with existing practices and culture stalls adoption
- AI governance and security policies are undefined — you don't know how to push forward while maintaining quality
- Collecting data requires extra work instead of flowing naturally from day-to-day operations
- You've set up an AI promotion team, but there's no clear path to enterprise-wide adoption and sustainability
- PoC and research phases are complete, but you can't move to implementation and ROI validation
Service Process (4 Phases)
Business Process Diagnosis
1–2 months
Thoroughly decompose and visualize current operations. Identify who does what, by what criteria, and at what frequency. Score each process for AI replacement potential and prioritize by ROI.
AI-First Process Redesign
2–3 months
Rather than simply replacing tasks with AI, we rethink the entire process assuming AI capabilities. This includes AI-human role design, system integration, approval flows, and governance policies.
Build Small, Prove Results
2–3 months
Implement AI agents in the highest-impact area and run them in real operations. Our integrated AI platform Bestllam can be deployed as the agent execution infrastructure. Simultaneously build measurement systems to quantitatively prove ROI — enabling smooth internal buy-in for expansion.
Enterprise Rollout & Self-Sufficiency
3–6 months
Scale proven patterns across departments, including enterprise-wide rollout of agent infrastructure like Bestllam. From consulting to tool deployment and operations — all delivered end-to-end. The ultimate goal: your team runs AI operations independently.

New Business Planning & Strategy Development
End-to-end support from market opportunity discovery to commercialization
Transforming "Ideas" into "Business"
The success rate of new businesses is generally said to be less than 10%. The primary cause of failure is "building something the market doesn't need." Our new business planning support validates business opportunities from both technical feasibility and market demand perspectives, developing business plans with high probability of success.
For Organizations Facing These Challenges
- You have ideas for new business but don't know where to start
- Existing business growth has plateaued and you need new revenue streams
- You have technology seeds but struggle to develop a business model
- New business projects have repeatedly stalled
- You need to create a business plan that can convince executive leadership
- You want to launch a business leveraging AI and digital technologies

Qualiteg's Strengths
Fusion of Technology and Strategy
Strategy expertise alone is not enough. Technical excellence alone won't get you there. Qualiteg delivers both within a single team.
Technically-Grounded Strategy
As developers of our own AI products, we accurately understand "what AI can do." We develop actionable strategies, not technically infeasible visions.
End-to-End Support from Strategy to Execution
We don't stop at strategy development. We provide guidance through the execution phase including MVP development, PoC implementation, and organization building.
Customer Insight Research
Validating Market Demand Before Launch
Validate "market viability" before going to market.
In B2B product and service commercialization, the greatest risk is "discovering it won't sell after you've built it." Customer insight research gathers authentic voices from potential customers to validate product concepts, pricing, and distribution channels before launch.
For Organizations Facing These Challenges
- You're developing a new product but uncertain if there's real market demand
- You want to validate whether your target industries and companies are correctly identified
- You need to confirm pricing appropriateness with actual purchasing decision-makers

DX Promotion & AI Strategy
Driving Successful Digital Transformation and AI Adoption
What matters is not building your own model, but how you leverage it.
How do you combine it with your proprietary data? Which business processes should it be integrated into? What customer value will it create? Whether customizing open models or leveraging commercial APIs, this is where differentiation originates. DX and AI adoption are means, not ends. We develop DX and AI strategies that directly drive business outcomes.
For Organizations Facing These Challenges
- You want to advance DX but don't know where to begin
- You've deployed AI tools but they haven't gained traction in the organization
- There's a perception, especially among senior employees, that "AI threatens jobs" or "it's unapproachable"
- Company-wide tool deployment makes impact measurement difficult and lacks buy-in
- AI management - who owns and governs AI - remains undefined
- Consulting alone doesn't address on-the-ground operational challenges
Qualiteg's Approach
Dual Focus: AI Education & Tool Adoption
AI adoption in operations cannot progress with tool deployment alone. By advancing AI education and tool adoption in parallel, we achieve effective implementation.
Persona-Based Deployment
Rather than uniform company-wide deployment, our persona-based approach by department and role enables easier impact measurement and stronger organizational buy-in.
AI Management Support
Who manages AI? We provide guidance on establishing AI management including security, governance, and operational policies.
Integrated Consulting & Tools
Consulting alone doesn't fit operational realities. Tools alone don't achieve adoption. We organically integrate implementation support with tool utilization tailored to actual conditions.
Service Process (6 Steps)
Current State Analysis & Challenge Identification
Business process analysis, IT asset inventory, DX maturity assessment
Opportunity Area Identification
AI/DX application candidate identification, impact estimation, prioritization

Lead prediction, proposal generation, customer analytics
Back Office
Document processing automation, expense management, contract review
Development & Engineering
Code generation assistance, test automation, documentation generation
Estimated Project Duration
| Project Scale | Duration | Scope Example |
|---|---|---|
| Assessment | 2-4 weeks | Current state analysis, AI opportunity identification |
| Strategy Development | 6-10 weeks | DX strategy and roadmap development |
| Implementation Support | 3-6 months | PoC through production deployment and adoption |
Japan Market Entry Support
Your Boots on the Ground in Japan's $4T+ Market
Unlock the world's 4th largest economy — entirely in English.
Japan is a $4T+ market with massive untapped potential for global companies, but its unique business culture — consensus-driven decision-making (nemawashi/ringi), relationship-first negotiations, and unspoken expectations — creates barriers that have stalled even Fortune 500 expansion plans.

Why Qualiteg
Insiders Who Speak Your Language

End-to-End: From Deal Sourcing to Due Diligence
We go beyond introductions — leveraging our extensive network across Japanese industries to source strategic partners, conduct thorough commercial and operational due diligence, and drive contract negotiations to close.
Do Business in English — We Handle the Japanese
You don't need a Japanese-speaking team to enter Japan. We serve as your bilingual business arm — handling all negotiations, presentations, contracts, and PR communications with Japanese stakeholders on your behalf.
Japan-Specific PR & Go-to-Market Strategy
Japanese consumers and businesses respond to different messaging. We craft localized PR strategies, media relations, KOL engagement, and go-to-market plans tailored to how Japan actually works — maximizing brand awareness and pipeline velocity from day one.
Broad Network Across Japanese Industries
Years of on-the-ground business development have built us deep connections across Japan's corporate landscape — C-suite access at major enterprises, VC and startup ecosystems, industry associations, and government bodies. We open doors that cold outreach never will.
Investment Target Sourcing & M&A Due Diligence
Looking to invest in or acquire Japanese companies? We source high-potential targets, conduct on-the-ground due diligence — financial, operational, and cultural fit assessment — and support negotiations through to deal closure. From seed-stage startups to mid-market acquisitions.
AI × Japan Market Synergy
As an AI technology company ourselves, we help you leverage cutting-edge AI to gain a competitive edge in the Japanese market — from AI-powered market analysis to intelligent go-to-market automation.
