What TSC does

株式会社テクニカルソフトウェアコンサルタント (Technical Software Consultant, TSC) is a privately held Japanese software services company incorporated in 1990 in Osaka, with current headquarters in the Shinsaibashi area of Chuo-ku and 32 employees as of January 2026. The firm specializes in medical information systems, with its core offering being an integrated electronic medical record (EMR) and ordering (指示) system that manages digital patient records and links with admission/discharge, ward, pharmacy, examination, meal service, and radiology subsystems. Supporting products include a medical affairs (医事) system for insurance verification, co-pay calculation, and electronic claims (レセプト); an integrated viewer for modality (CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound) results; a paper-to-database registration system; and a specialized business web system for project management. TSC also develops municipality information systems (自治体情報システム), reusing domain expertise from the medical segment.

TSC operates a B2B, sales-led professional services model: the company provides proposal, design, development, testing, implementation, training, and ongoing maintenance services on a project basis, and is not a product-license vendor. Customer access is mediated through long-standing basic contracts (基本契約) with major Japanese medical equipment and IT vendors — Canon Medical Systems (2003), Canon IT Solutions Medical, NCS&A (2013), NEC Nexa Solutions (2015), Fujitsu (2018), NEC Solution Innovator (2020), Fujitsu Japan, Sumitomo Electric (1990), and Medley — under which TSC receives development requests and delivers systems into hospital and government clients primarily in the Kansai / Osaka metropolitan area. The firm holds ISO 27001 (since 2009) and was certified as a Health Management Excellence Corporation in 2024. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; registered capital is 10 million JPY.
