Izumi Consulting Achieves ISO/IEC 27001 Certification

Izumi Consulting Co., Ltd., based in Shinjuku, Tokyo, has announced a significant milestone in its business operations. As of February 2026, the company’s BIM Solutions Division has successfully achieved the internationally recognized ISO/IEC 27001 certification for its Information Security Management System (ISMS). This accolade underscores Izumi Consulting's commitment to protecting sensitive architectural and facility data, which is a cornerstone of its business operations.

Background of Certification Acquisition

The BIM Solutions Division at Izumi Consulting engages in several activities that inherently require handling confidential and high-stakes data. These include the development and sale of architectural and facility-related software packages, custom software development, and various BIM-related services such as implementation support, training, and promotion.

In response to the growing demand for secure data management amid increasing occurrences of data integration and collaborative work, the division has ramped up reforms around cloud infrastructure, notably through its BIM cloud service, B-LOOP. This heightened focus necessitated a more rigorous information management framework to ensure data security and reliability.

To address these challenges, Izumi Consulting undertook a major initiative that involved organizing information assets, enhancing access controls, establishing security rules surrounding software development processes, and boosting education among all employees regarding information security practices. These concerted efforts were instrumental in achieving the ISO/IEC 27001 certification, recognized by the International Accreditation Service (IAS) through an accredited evaluation body under the International Accreditation Forum (IAF MLA).

Key Points of ISMS Certification

The ISO/IEC 27001 certification confirms the establishment of a robust management system for BIM data and architectural and facility-related data, which includes:

• - Strict control mechanisms for BIM and facility-related data.
• - Enhanced protection of sensitive information in custom software development activities.
• - Development of safe operational management flows related to the BIM cloud service.
• - Comprehensive security training for software development and consulting personnel.

Going forward, Izumi Consulting is determined to engage in continuous enhancements of its ISMS. Through the provision of a trustworthy data environment, which is essential for promoting digital transformation (DX) within the construction sector, the company aims to significantly improve project value for its clients.
