On February 21, 2025, at the National Strategic Special Zone Conference Joint Meeting, a proposal regarding Keys Lock Service was made in relation to the deregulation proposal from Fukuoka City!

**Proposal Summary**
1. Regulatory relaxation for enhanced security
Current situation: In various fields, digital transformation (DX) is being promoted, yet the keys to chemical storage locations are still managed through paper logs.
Issue: Despite the potential for safe key management and improved efficiency through the use of IoT-enabled "smart locks," digital logs are not permitted.
Proposal: Allow digital management of keys to enable safer and more efficient operations.
2. Proposing regulatory relaxation to facilitate the use of digital technology on-site!
Current situation: In facilities handling flammable hazardous materials, the entry of IoT devices such as smartphones and tablets is uniformly prohibited, regardless of the level of danger.
Issue: This restriction hinders the digital transformation of verification and inspection tasks on-site, even in low-risk areas, thus obstructing operational efficiency.
Proposal: Allow the use of IoT devices in low-risk areas only if certain requirements (such as dust and water resistance certification) are met.
