“In 1995, transcosmos established a system development subsidiary in Tianjin, China. The company manages the entire system development project management from design, development to testing for the Japan and China local markets. The company has expanded its footprint not only in China but also in Japan. Today, the company operates in Suzhou and Jinan in China as well as in Japan with a total of 1,600 engineers and a specialized quality control team, offering high-quality system development services that meet Japanese quality standards.”

“Along with this acquisition, transcosmos will take over KUBOTA Group’s IT business in China, which is currently run by Kubota Systems. transcosmos will expand its business domain by succeeding the SAP upgrade and maintenance business, entering a new domain for transcosmos.”

“The agreed acquisition of Kubota Systems was a perfect opportunity for both KUBOTA Corporation and transcosmos to achieve our respective vision,” Kokkei Nakayama, Chairman of Suzhou transcosmos Information Creative Co., Ltd. said.

“For KUBOTA Corporation, the deal will bring higher operational efficiency through promoting structural reform, and transcosmos can expand its systems business in China. Building on this acquisition, we will further expand the coverage of our cost-effective system service to include Kubota Group. At the same time, we will provide all Japanese businesses operating in China with greater services to help them grow their businesses.”
