What avanza does

avanza Co., Ltd. (株式会社アヴァンザ) is a privately-held Japanese IT services company founded in October 1991 and headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, with a branch office in Gotanda. Since January 2024 it has operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of DTS Corporation, part of the DTS Group (6,188 employees, ¥125,980 million consolidated sales FY2025). Its revenue base is approximately ¥2,844,610,000 (FY2025, December 2025 period) supported by a headcount of 229 employees as of April 2026.

The company runs two business lines. The first is a professional services line covering system integration (SI) for web and embedded systems, system engineering services (SES) in the form of engineer dispatch, and certified consulting partnerships for Salesforce (since October 2023) and Cybozu kintone (since April 2025) — providing implementation, customization, and ongoing development to enterprise customers in financial services, insurance, manufacturing, logistics, and information/communication. The second is a proprietary product line of three IC tag (RFID)-based asset management solutions: TAGMATCH for checkout/check-in tracking, CABIMATCH for security cabinet management of important items, and GATEMATCH for gate-based bulk inventory entry/exit control. These products are sold direct via dedicated product websites and through the company's enterprise sales motion.

avanza serves enterprise clients in Japan — disclosed customers include Mitsubishi Motors, Terrasky, NSD Digital Solutions, TOPPAN, a major P&C insurance company, a major life insurance company, a major bank, Panasonic EW Engineering, Sega Sammy Holdings, Kimura Information Technology, and DARTSLIVE. Distribution is direct enterprise sales plus partner channels via Salesforce and Cybozu ecosystems, supported by event-led demand generation at shows such as FIT, Back Office DXPO, and Office Security EXPO. Revenue mechanics are professional services billings (SI, SES, consulting) supplemented by direct product sales of the IC tag solutions.
