Introduction

On August 15, 2026, Nakashima Systems, headquartered in Okayama, plans to absorb its fully-owned subsidiary Tisco, based in Osaka. This transformation aims to unify operations, especially focusing on the development and support of the renovation assistance system, TRS II. The merger will allow Nakashima to inherit Tisco's rights and obligations, significantly streamlining their business model and operational structure.

Background of the Merger

The acquisition of Tisco's entire stock by Nakashima on June 24, 2025, marked the initiation of integration efforts. This acquisition harnessed Tisco's extensive knowledge in large-scale renovation projects and its robust customer base, setting the stage for a more focused approach to the construction repair market. Due to the successful establishment of a unified operational framework over the past year, the merger aims to promote agile decision-making and enhance customer engagement under one consolidated entity.

Key Initiatives Post-Merger

1. Unified Development and Support Structure

One of the primary benefits of the merger is the consolidation of TRS II's development, sales, and support functions. With combined resources from Nakashima's proprietary CAD engine, ANDES, and Tisco’s deep-rooted expertise in large renovation projects, the intention is to foster innovative product development tailored to real-world construction challenges. Companies will quickly react to client demands and operational hurdles, improving overall service quality.

2. Strengthening Support via Six National Bases

Previously centered in Osaka, sales and support for TRS II will expand to Nakashima's six national locations, including Okayama, Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Sendai, and Fukuoka. Enhanced support will ensure that existing and new customers benefit from product demonstrations, onboarding help, and ongoing assistance, leading to higher customer satisfaction and engagement levels.

3. Expanding Renovation Solutions

TRS II will be positioned as a cornerstone product within the renovation sector, assisting with critical functions such as damage assessments, quantity takeoffs, and drawing preparations. The objective is to keep a pulse on challenges faced within the construction repair field and continuously provide necessary applications and functionalities that will drive productivity across all operations.

About TRS II

TRS II is designed to assist in the drawing creation and quantity takeoff tasks related to renovation works for buildings and condominiums. The software features three core functionalities:

• - TRS II Base (Repair Quantity Calculations): Users can input damage conditions and repair details directly onto drawings, generating deterioration and repair diagrams along with quantity estimates.
• - TRS II Inventory (Quantity Takeoff): This function facilitates the extraction of areas, lengths, and counts from PDF drawings, allowing users to verify quantities and calculation bases visually.
• - TRS II Scaffold (Temporary Planning): This supports the creation of construction planning drawings along with temporary layout and elevation diagrams, helping prevent estimate errors and support standardized operations.

Additionally, TRS II helps streamline processes that prevent errors during estimates and fosters training within the workforce. More detailed information about the product and success stories can be found at Nakashima's official product site.

Customer Guidance

For users of TRS II, there will not be significant changes in service provision or support systems due to the merger. Contracts established prior to the merger will continue to remain valid under the new entity, and no action is required on their part. The support channels will transition to Nakashima starting from August 1, 2026, with specifics about support services communicated individually to customers. In contrast, support for the older product version, TRS (CADVANTAGE99), will cease on July 31, 2026.
