What LASSIC does

LASSIC (株式会社LASSIC / ラシック) is a Japanese for-profit IT services company founded in 2006 in Tottori Prefecture and publicly listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange under securities code 574A. The company operates a dual-platform business model built around the concept of 'borderless work' (ボーダレスワーク), combining remote-work-specialized personnel services (Remogu/リモグ, リラシク, and Remogu Freelance) with system integration services (ITソリューション) that leverage regional IT engineers located across 8 Japanese prefectures from Sendai to Fukuoka. Supporting these core platforms are the LAB Service (agile, ticket-driven development with flexible team scaling), the Telework/Remote Work General Research Institute (テレリモ総研, a content and survey operation), and the KnockMe!/感情医工学研究所 emotional-engineering technology unit, the latter developed partly through a 2015 strategic partnership with WIN Frontier on biometric emotion measurement (COCOLOLO app).

LASSIC's revenue is generated through three professional-services streams: contract-based personnel placement and dispatch (Remogu/リラシク), system integration and application development for enterprise clients (ITソリューション), and agile development team resourcing (LAB Service). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is delivered via custom quotes based on project scope, team composition, and duration. Go-to-market combines direct B2B enterprise sales, self-serve platform matching via the Remogu digital properties, recruitment-channel partnerships (Wantedly), and direct engagement with local governments on regional ICT projects (e.g., Nanbu Town education, Iwami Town elderly care, Marumori Town revitalization). Customer segments span Japanese enterprises seeking remote-work implementation, mid-market firms sourcing regional IT talent, and municipal governments pursuing regional revitalization initiatives; named clients include Ricoh, Ebisol (restaurant management), Unifa (early childhood education), MyRefer (HR tech), and WIN Frontier (healthcare/wellness).

The company's strategic positioning differentiates it from Tokyo-centric competitors by framing social contribution (regional revitalization, employment outside major metros) as a for-profit business model rather than CSR. LASSIC holds Privacy Mark certification, Ruby System Integrator Gold status, and METI Regional Future Leading Enterprise designation, and has stated a public goal of expanding to 50 regions and 1,000 employees from its current 8-prefecture, 101-250-employee base, positioning itself in what it terms a 'second founding period' as of 2024.
