-
Lacking the image of how development takes place
Collaboration becomes essential as the size of the project increases, but some members may not see or understand details outside of their domain. Each and every member needs to understand the overall flow and steps of development in order for the project to roll out successfully.
NTT e-Asia’s system development training
It is important for people engaging in system development for the first time or being in charge of offshore development to know the site and have a grip on the general picture. Training participants can bring in their own issues to the sessions and even incorporate reviews for specific actions to implement development schemes to solve those issues.
From entry-level training to practical training
We plan out optimal training programs for skill development of the entire team, including development training for new employees. We provide optimized training according to your preferred period and location.
Improving the precision of offshore development
Some of our offshore development training programs take place on the site. It is also possible to incorporate an introduction to that country's customs and cities as part of the program to learn about the foreign country. Spending the same time together can promote mutual understanding as well as communication with local staff.
Prototyping for your specific issue
Participants who incorporated their own issues into the training program can work on defining requirements and implementing development plans as per the flow of system development. Fostering mutual understanding and agreement among members on what steps remain up to system launch helps facilitate communication after returning to Japan.
Examples of System development training
-
On-site training in Vietnam
We held a training program in Vietnam that offers an environment that undermines existing values. Through software development and group discussions with Vietnamese developers, the participants experienced global training.
We put in the entire series of operations from the upstream process (requirements definition) to the downstream process (development), centering on software development training using the low-code development platform OutSystems. We can also flexibly combine periods and options according to your needs. -
Entry-level training for beginners
Targeting new employees to be software personnel, we hold introductory training to help them learn basic terminology and development methods and processes as prerequisites for working on software development (requirements definition and basic design). We also provide services that cover planning, management, and provision of training programs, as well as training environment preparation for the programs (delivery of training textbooks, arrangement and setup of online environment, etc.).
Examples of training programs include information system development startup training, DX training for on-site operators, design thinking training, and Agile version project management training.

Examples of software production
-
Development of a Web reception system for a local government
To enable the local government to concentrate on problems in the community, we transformed the paper-based analog reception operation into a Web-based system. In the upstream process, we formulated the specifications, identified and solved the technical issues, and improved user interface and experience to clarify the needs. In the manufacturing process, we handled all phases from detailed design for meeting the requirements to implementation, testing, and operation following production release, taking responsibility for the operation of the entire system.
-
Development of inventory control system and Reservation Management System
Adopting low-code development using OutSystems, we cut down the development costs for the inventory control system. By using the prototyping development method, we responded to detailed requirements at an early stage while eliminating any factors on the way that may later lead to a problem. We also developed a reservation management system fully from scratch, using the waterfall development method and finalizing the specifications beforehand. The conventional reservation management using phone calls and paper could not deal with nighttime calls and sudden reservation requests, so we solved these problems by making it into a Web-based system. We materialized the customer’s requirements using optimal techniques.

Necessity of evidence for making management decisions
You may be analyzing data, but do you have a clear objective for doing so? Why are you collecting and analyzing that data? Only after your objectives are clear, you start seeing what data is necessary. Since it takes too much time to train a data scientist from scratch, it is recommended to seek the help of an external expert.
NTT e-Asia’s Data Analytics
Collecting a range of figures by using a variety of tools may become meaningless unless you utilize those figures to connect to your next step. Use your data effectively for a successful business transformation.
Visualizing the results of data analysis
Visualizing data analysis results not only makes it easier to interpret the meaning of data, but also is very important for gaining insights.
Formatting data for making management decisions
How to interpret the collected data is where a data scientist can show one's competence in using data. Data should be used as a source for making decisions. We can format your data in a way that is easier to use as a guide for determining the future course of business.
Improving the freshness of data
When determining something using data, how much time does it take to analyze the collected data? Shortening the time spent on analysis by outsourcing it to a data expert can significantly improve the freshness of data, which enables you to make decisions based on more accurate, current figures.
Examples of data analytics
-
Streamlining decision making by visualizing management indicators
The client’s issue was that while the management indicators were managed in Excel and reported to top management, specific use of such results was limited. Therefore, NTT e-Asia migrated the data managed in Excel to a BI tool and visualized the management indicators through a range of graphs. Thanks to the visual analyses provided by the graphs, the customer became able to gain insights such as the level of indicator achievement and ranking of each organization, both of which were previously inaccessible. As a result, the customer could clearly see the achievements and issue of each organization, which further led to formulating more effective management strategies.
-
Improving decision-making support by data formatting
The client’s issue was that while they had a massive amount of data, it was in an inefficient data structure that prevented them from using it effectively. We therefore analyzed the client’s data in detail and efficiently rebuilt it into a more universal format that makes it easier to use. This process included data cleansing and structuring. Eventually, we ended up developing a dashboard for easier analysis. As a result, the introduction of the dashboard, along with the restructured data, successfully reduced data processing time compared to the previous style. Furthermore, we provided the client with the knowledge of data management through the process of data structuring, contributing the reinforcement and improvement of the client’s data platform.
-
Improving the quality of analysis by increasing efficiency
The client’s issue was that even by using a BI tool, too much time was being spent on creating the dashboard, which led to a lack of time to produce analyses and create reports. Therefore, we added external BI tool specialists to the team to be in charge of building the dashboard, separating the task of dashboard building from tasks related to data analysis and report creation. As a result, dashboard generation time became significantly shorter compared to the previous style, and data analysts became able to focus on interpreting data and creating strategic reports. This further led to faster acquisition of insights from data, drastically improving the quality and impact of the reports.

Telecom and smart city development
NTT Vietnam, the forerunner of NTT e-Asia, was founded in 1996. Starting with a joint telephone line installation project in Hanoi, Vietnam, NTT e-Asia has contributed to the development and quality improvement of infrastructure across Asia. Knowledge applied in collaboration with NTT East Group received favorable reputation, and in 2018, NTT e-Asia commenced a joint infrastructure project for optical fiber installation in Bình Dương province in southern Vietnam. In recent years, NTT e-Asia has been engaging in the development of smart cities, integrating real estate development, infrastructure sharing, digital systems, and other residential services.

Since 2018, NTT e-Asia has been working on laying of cables for an optical fiber network in Bình Dương province in southern Vietnam. In collaboration with VNTT, which provides broadband access services, we are building access networks by applying our proven technologies. Alongside the development of telecommunications and ICT infrastructures, we conducted demonstration experiments of Local 5G systems, ICT training, esports and other digital services using optical fiber infrastructure. Recently, we are also building business models for smart cities.
