Revolutionizing the Security Industry: The Unique Partnership between Straya and Bizcon Japan

In a pioneering move that promises to transform the security sector, Straya Inc., based in Shinjuku, Tokyo, and Bizcon Japan Co., Ltd., situated in Yokohama, Kanagawa, have announced a groundbreaking system integration between their respective platforms—SecurityPro, a back-office system tailored for security firms, and KUMOCAN, a specialized cloud-based control system for the security industry. This innovative collaboration is a first of its kind within the sector, intending to streamline operational efficiency and boost overall effectiveness in the management of security services.

The Need for Digital Transformation in Security

As the demand for digital transformation (DX) heightens, security firms are increasingly compelled to enhance their operations across various domains including on-site control, personnel management, billing, and payroll. Nevertheless, many companies are struggling with the concept of an "all-in-one management approach," which often fails to cater to the unique operational needs and regulatory environments of individual firms. This limitation can lead to ineffective systems that do not fully optimize practical execution.

Against this backdrop, Straya and Bizcon Japan recognized the necessity of linking the distinct areas of personnel management, operational control, and administrative functions without losing sight of their individual strengths. They believe that by focusing on their respective areas of expertise, they can jointly deliver a superior, scalable DX solution for the security industry.

Understanding the Current Challenges

The operational challenges within the security industry can generally be placed into three key areas:
1. On-Site Operations: This includes oversight, attendance tracking, and deployment management.
2. Human Resources: Tasks such as retention strategies, performance evaluation, and talent management fall into this category.
3. Administrative Operations: This covers invoicing, payroll, compliance documentation, and year-end adjustments.

Each of these areas is highly specialized, making it challenging for a single company to adequately address the diverse needs of various security firms. This fragmentation often results in half-measures that leave companies with incomplete systems that do not deliver on their full potential.

Integration Overview and Role Allocation

The integration between Straya and Bizcon Japan aims to optimize both on-site operations and back-office functions, eventually creating a cohesive solution that enhances operational efficiency. By leveraging the strengths of each platform, the two companies can provide a comprehensive approach that addresses both talent and operational efficiency while significantly enhancing customer satisfaction.

Role Distribution:

• - KUMOCAN will focus on improving control operations and addressing human resource challenges through innovative solutions supported by AI, including automated personnel placement and talent management.
• - SecurityPro will manage all the unique back-office tasks in the security industry, like invoicing, payroll, documentation, training, and year-end adjustments.

The integration enables seamless operations as attendance and performance data recorded by KUMOCAN are directly linked to SecurityPro, ensuring coherence between fieldwork and management.

Value Generated Through Partnership

For existing users of SecurityPro, this integration means they can implement personnel and operational advancements without the need to overhaul their core systems. This approach minimizes the switching costs while enabling them to improve their on-site services.

For new users, the advantage lies in the immediate deployment of optimally structured control, personnel, and administrative functions while avoiding potential compromises that typically arise in one-stop-shop solutions.

From an industry perspective, the continuous refinement of their specialized domains, complemented by this partnership, allows both companies to deliver advanced functions and DX capabilities that are otherwise challenging to achieve independently. The integration offers speed and quality that will benefit the entire security sector.

Executive Remarks

Kotaro Fukuda, Vice President at Bizcon Japan:

"Having provided foundational systems for security firms over many years, we are acutely aware of the significant changes confronting the industry, including staffing shortages and increasing operational demands. Collaborating with Straya, known for its expertise and innovative approaches in personnel management, is particularly meaningful for us, as it allows us to contribute to DX that genuinely supports security companies."

Takuya Watanabe, CEO of Straya:

"Teaming up with Bizcon Japan, recognized for its market share and extensive experience, is an exciting opportunity for us. While there’s been an influx of new entrants to the security sector, it’s apparent that many have struggled to present genuinely valuable options to security firms. This collaboration enables us to provide exceptional choices to the industry, thus benefiting security companies and their personnel."

Future Developments

Looking ahead, the two companies plan to host a joint webinar in March 2026, leveraging their combined customer bases to share real-world case studies and explore strategies for advancing DX in the security industry. Through this partnership, Straya and Bizcon Japan will pursue a mission of establishing a "non-disruptive DX" that harmonizes field operations with managerial processes.
