What NTC does

NTC Co., Ltd. (株式会社NTC) is a Nagaoka, Niigata-headquartered Japanese IT services firm founded in 1984 that has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of Miroku Information Service Co., Ltd. (MJS) since 2002. The company sells and implements four core product lines: (1) SystemBox会計, a proprietary accounting and management accounting software developed since 1992 with project-based P&L tracking, multi-company consolidation, and Japanese-standards customization; (2) DX Solutions built on Microsoft Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, Power Virtual Agents), with four ready-made apps published on Microsoft AppSource for attendance, travel expense, event reception, and equipment reservation; (3) KiiteMi, an enterprise-exclusive generative AI chatbot launched in August 2023 that runs on Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service with private-data isolation to prevent leakage; and (4) IFS Cloud ERP/FSM/EAM, resold and implemented under NTC's IFS Business Partner status held since 2015.

NTC targets primarily Japanese manufacturing, construction, and mid-market enterprises, with case studies including a TSE Prime-listed construction firm (120 terminals across 9 group companies), a 500-employee auto dealership group (150 terminals across 5 entities), and apparel/facility management clients. Revenue mechanics combine subscription/recurring licensing (SystemBox, KiiteMi), professional services (DX implementations, custom development), and managed services (IFS Cloud). Pricing is custom-quoted via consultation under multi-year contracts; no public pricing exists.

Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, anchored in the Niigata region but extending nationwide through Microsoft AppSource and IFS partner channels. The firm employs 109 people as of June 2026, with an unusually high 16.5-year average tenure and a balanced new-graduate/mid-career mix. NTC is privately held with no disclosed financials, no public listing, and no venture or PE capital structure.
