**Seminar Overview** Since the 1960s, manufacturing companies in our country have expanded their production bases to ASEAN countries, primarily Thailand, in search of "cheap and abundant labor." However, in recent years, labor costs in ASEAN countries have been on the rise. Additionally, as of April 2012, it has been decided that the minimum wage in Thailand will be increased by an average of 40%. Furthermore, with the relocation of flood-affected companies to the Eastern Industrial Region, we can also expect an increase in wage levels and extreme labor shortages. There is a possibility that wage settings may shift from being based on the previous minimum wage to being based on wage levels from the labor market. In this seminar, we will view this crisis as a new turning point for production activities in Thailand, focusing on how Thai individuals can take the lead and enhance productivity with fewer personnel. We will explain the key points of how to develop these activities.

To survive as a manufacturing industry, it is essential to maximize the output of available management resources. The driving force behind transforming factories and manufacturing is human resources. In this seminar, we will systematically explain the specific approaches to optimizing the entire factory through improvements in management systems, including production sites, planning, and procurement. Additionally, we will introduce strategies for human resource development through the process of Techno-style achievement (VPM), which is essential for delivering reliable results in improvement management.

"Maximizing the efficiency of current personnel and equipment to strengthen global competitiveness" In the face of a harsh environment surrounding the manufacturing industry, such as a strong yen, companies are compelled to shift overseas. At the same time, it has become a significant challenge to reconsider the role of manufacturing bases within Japan and to further advance as a mother factory. To overcome such management challenges, we will hold a seminar focused on the "strategy for strengthening the constitution and resilience of domestic factories" in order to become winners in a globally and discontinuously changing market. In this seminar, we will explain how to "maximize the efficiency of management resources (people, equipment, skills, know-how)" and "stabilize and solidify the production system." Additionally, we will present reform case studies from two companies that have achieved significant results.

[For Business Owners and Managers] The strong yen is leading to an increase in overseas expansion. In the future, as factories move abroad, we must clarify the role and positioning of domestic factories. However, many domestic mother factories exist only in name, and it cannot be said that they are fulfilling their role as command centers adequately. It is crucial for development, design, purchasing, production, quality assurance, and sales to collaborate and function as a seamless entity. Furthermore, rather than relying solely on cost transfer, total cost reduction and cost innovation are required. In this seminar, we will propose the ideal state of mother factories.

The Japanese manufacturing industry is facing an unprecedentedly harsh environment due to factors such as the earthquake, the appreciation of the yen leading to a shift of production overseas, and power shortages. In light of the significant disaster we have experienced, let's take a moment to reconsider the advantages of manufacturing and what we should be focusing on. There are still many things we must do and can do. However, in reality, middle management and team members on the ground are struggling to maintain a strong commitment to achieving results, and reforms are progressing slowly. I hear many discussions about the lack of opinions and ideas. If you are a top executive or management member who wants to break through such a situation, please join us.
