Business Overview

Alpha Purchase has two main business segments: MRO operations and FM operations. The MRO business sells indirect materials to streamline the ordering and delivery of consumables that companies purchase on a daily basis. Its core strength lies in serving large corporate groups, particularly listed companies, by offering a wide range of product options and competitively priced unit costs.

In the MRO business, Alpha Purchase provides a broad selection of products through an electronic purchasing system to meet diverse customer needs. Even when a customer's desired product is not available in the electronic catalog, the company has a mechanism to identify appropriate suppliers and provide competitive quotes. This ensures customers can always select the optimal products.

To offer competitively priced unit costs, Alpha Purchase promotes fair and open competition among suppliers. This allows customers to purchase products at prices reflecting volume discounts, enabling cost reduction. Additionally, the company provides an electronic purchasing system that supports purchase management through controlled internal approval processes.

The FM business, meanwhile, handles new construction, renovation, repair, cleaning, and operational support for commercial facilities. Particularly for chain store customers, it standardizes building materials and service delivery to provide uniform service quality. The FM business supports cost reduction by providing services aligned with the lifecycle of commercial facilities.

As an additional business, Alpha Purchase operates external sales through ATC Corporation, which develops and operates IT systems. This business is characterized by low risk and high profitability, though it remains small in scale. Overall, Alpha Purchase provides diverse services to help customers achieve optimal purchasing.

Management Policy

Alpha Purchase provides comprehensive products and services centered on MRO (maintenance, repair, and operations), working with suppliers and partners to create customer value and reduce indirect costs. The company leverages IT systems and supplier networks to drive digital transformation in the high-mix, low-volume, low-value market, aiming to improve efficiency across Japan's industrial sector and enhance business performance.

Alpha Purchase offers an electronic procurement platform primarily targeting large corporate groups. The platform coexists with existing IT systems and ERP systems, supporting procurement process efficiency. In 2024, as e-commerce adoption accelerates in the MRO merchandise market, the company sees significant room for market share expansion. In particular, as demand for strengthened internal controls within corporate groups increases, interest in the company's IT systems is growing.

The company's growth strategy includes acquiring new customers, recruiting IT talent and enhancing their skills, and conducting active investor relations activities. It will expand brand awareness and acquire new customers through public relations and digital marketing initiatives. Additionally, it will increase IT and consulting personnel to strengthen its capacity to meet customer needs. As a listed company, it will advance IR activities to ensure accurate information disclosure and appropriate market valuation.

Through these strategies, Alpha Purchase aims to expand sales and operating profit. In particular, it views the expanding DX market as a business opportunity and will grow its business through improved efficiency and strengthened internal controls. In doing so, the company seeks to contribute to efficiency improvements across Japan's industrial sector while realizing its own growth.
