What are the important issues and solutions faced by small and medium-sized enterprises? Solving management issues with the office management system Offision Hub
Important issues faced by small and medium-sized enterprises
In 2023, there were 260 bankruptcies due to labor shortages, significantly breaking the record high, and it was a year in which the negative impact of labor shortages on corporate management was noticeable. Particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which account for more than 90% of domestic companies and are responsible for approximately 70% of employment, cost reduction, including personnel costs, has become the most important issue.
However, there is still room to reduce costs related to office management. Most small and medium-sized businesses do not have advanced office management systems and are still managing their offices in a completely analog way. Labor savings are possible by utilizing highly automated office management systems that have already been proven in developed countries in Europe and America. You can manage your office with a small number of people at low cost.

For example, reserving a conference room.
If management is done in an analog way, such as by having each person in charge individually understand the information, human error is inevitable, and confusion tends to occur during busy periods. Although there are sufficient facility resources, there is a tendency to compete for them. For example, conference rooms may not be used efficiently, such as cases where plans are made but they are not actually used, or cases where there are long gaps between uses. Therefore, reservation systems that manage reservations using a sophisticated system rather than manually are attracting attention.
Furthermore, now that we are in the post-coronavirus era, demand for hybrid work and telework is expected to continue to rise. With this in mind, office management systems can also promote hot-desking systems. According to a report by the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), implementing a hot desk system in your office can reduce office operating costs by 30% and save 15% to 25% of the space required.
If you can introduce and utilize an office management system, it will have a great effect on your company. With this background in mind, the choice of office management system becomes even more important.

Hotdesking is an organized workspace system where the same desk is used by different people at different times. It is typically employed to maximize space efficiency and reduce real estate risk by
eliminating redundant office space.
The flexibility that comes with hotdesking often allows employees to be more innovative. Furthermore, on the social side, it is known as a way to foster collaboration across disciplines.
