SoftBank Corp. will begin offering “HacoBuddy,” a service for the construction industry that supports digital transformation in the management and dispatch of construction vehicles, including dump trucks, from February 20, 2025.
In Japan, the decline in the productive population due to the declining birthrate and aging population is becoming evident in many areas, and the shortage of workers is becoming a serious problem in the construction industry. Furthermore, in response to the large-scale landslides that have occurred in recent years, legal regulations regarding the filling of land at construction and residential land development sites are becoming stricter. On the other hand, the demand for construction is increasing for redevelopment and infrastructure conservation, and the need for vehicles related to construction is also increasing. At construction sites, a limited number of construction vehicles must be managed and dispatched, but many tasks are done manually, and there are issues such as poor efficiency. In light of these various changes in the industry, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism is working to improve the efficiency of construction overall, improve construction safety, and reform the way the industry works. Since fiscal 2016, it has launched the concept of “i-Construction,” aiming to improve productivity at construction sites and create a comfortable working environment by automating tasks and reducing labor through digitalization.
To contribute to solving these issues in the construction industry, ソフトバンク is offering “HacoBuddy,” which digitizes the management and dispatch of vehicles that travel in and out of construction sites, such as dump trucks that transport soil generated at construction and housing development sites, helping to improve productivity.

“HacoBuddy” is a cloud-based vehicle management and dispatch service provided to construction companies and transportation companies. Construction companies can now easily process vehicle arrangement requests, which were previously done by phone or fax, and various other tasks that were previously done manually, on a screen.
