Three Strengths of Solashi System Development

Our core belief is to work alongside our customers to create outstanding systems and services. With this in mind, we may suggest avoiding unnecessary development and prioritizing prototype verification to ensure the best outcomes.
We view system development as a “means” to an end. Our ultimate goal is to provide solutions that not only meet but exceed our customers’ expectations, bringing genuine value and satisfaction to their business.

Japanese Project Managers Who Understand Business Needs

We have Japanese Project Managers who deeply understand the technical requirements of projects and can engage in high-level technical discussions. They can select development languages based on the availability of skilled personnel and sustainable maintenance.

From Business Concept to System Development

We can provide consulting services that work backwards from your business idea to determine the necessary IT services and similar case studies. We propose development outlines based on the sequence of business launch and the complexity of IT service construction.

Our Communicators in Vietnam Are Capable of Business-Level Communication in Japanese

We consistently strive to elevate the standard of what’s considered “basic” in language proficiency. As a result, we’re entrusted with tasks such as manual creation and successfully overcoming language barriers.

Development Structure

Optimal Development Structure Based on Your Business Plan

Flexible Development Structure and Schedule Tailored to Business Problems

For customers with lab-type contracts, we can flexibly accommodate unplanned feature development and collaborations with other companies during service launch.

Sample Problems

Problem #1

During the project, we want to build a media platform using a Headless CMS. Can you be flexible enough to accommodate this?

Problem #2

We have a clear idea of what we want to develop, but the scope has grown too large. Where should we start, and what’s the best release strategy?

Problem #3

The development has become so extensive that a single development company can’t handle it alone.
How should we structure our in-house team to avoid failure?

Problem #4

The scale of the service we want to develop has grown too large, and we don’t have enough budget.
We’d like to know successful patterns for development using grants or subsidies.
