Section 3. Strengthening Our Corporate Structure
1. Implementing Organizational Reform and Our Medium- and Long-Term Management Plan
On January 1, 1983, our company underwent an organizational reform in order to streamline management. The main points were to abolish and merge the existing Daibiru-Honkan Building Sales Office, Shin-Daibiru Building Sales Office, and Midosuji Daibiru Building Sales Office for developmental reasons and establish the new Osaka Office; to transfer internal and external security-related matters, which were previously under the management of the Sales Section, to the new Security Section at both the Osaka Office and Tokyo Office; to abolish the Insurance Agency Section of the Operations Department and transfer its operations to the new Insurance Agency Section to both the Osaka Office and Tokyo Office; and to add “other real estate leasing and brokerage matters” to the responsibilities of the Sales Section at both the Osaka Office and Tokyo Office.

The Hibiya Daibiru Buildings
In April 1983, our company created a medium- and long-term management plan that would cover the next five years. The purpose of this plan was to clarify our future management goals and to concentrate the entire company’s efforts toward achieving those goals. Under this plan, our company would be operated under the following concept.
- The rebuilding of Hibiya Daibiru will proceed according to investment efficiency and supply-demand trends, and the remaining life of the Daibiru Buildings will be extended as much as possible.
- The rebuilding of Hibiya Daibiru is our most important project. To achieve this goal, our company will endeavor to improve our finances with the aim of achieving sales of 11.612 billion yen, ordinary income of 3.847 billion yen, and the first- or second-highest per-employee profit level in Japan within five years.
- In order to mitigate the decline in profit that is expected for the period ending March 1985 when the hotel is completed, our company will reduce repair costs, delay capital improvement plans, and either utilize or dispose of unused land.
- We will proceed with construction plans by aiming to begin construction on the Mita-Nitto Daibiru Building in Tokyo in 1984 H1 and construction on the Awajimachi Daibiru Building in Osaka in 1984 H2.
- For existing buildings, we will actively introduce labor-saving equipment and reduce management costs, including the introduction of centralized monitoring for the equipment in the Osaka Office buildings in 1985.
- We will clarify the scope of operational responsibilities of affiliated companies in order to improve profitability of the entire group.
- Our personnel plan is to secure personnel who will be future leaders of the company, and to cover business expansion not through higher personnel counts but through automation and outsourcing.
