About us
Japan’s only “total” consulting company specializing railway from end to end
Our goal is to create a city rich in heart on railways
With a high level of safety, Japanese railways offer excellent punctuality, comfort and environmental compatibility. As a highly reliable public transport system, the Japanese railways have long been supporting our daily lives and economic activities, contributing to the country’s prosperity. The world’s first high-speed railway, Shinkansen, particularly draws significant attention as an excellent railway system from the world. Despite high speed, high frequency and high volume transportation, the Shinkansen has achieved an exceptionally high level of safety – “zero passenger fatalities” since its launch.
Meanwhile, overseas railways now receive a high valuation based on the rising eco-oriented global environment and solutions to social issues, such as traffic congestion and air pollution in emerging countries. This trend has led to railway projectｓ in progress around the world.
Under such circumstances, we have launched our business as a total railway consultant, sponsored by 10 leading railway companies. Leveraging our strengths as a one-stop consultancy, we propose the best solutions optimized for each country to develop railway projects. Our expert consultancy covers various stages: from the conception stage of different rail modes, such as Shinkansen, metro and new transit systems, to survey, design, tender support and construction supervision, even further to operation, maintenance and human resources development.
We will continuously expand our excellent Japanese railway systems into other countries, thereby contributing to solving environmental and social issues and economic development in those countries. At the same time, we will play a key role in revitalizing the Japanese economy through expanding our business fields.
