Future Care Lab in Japan is your one-stop provider for everything
from basic planning to development, testing, and on-site verification.
We’ve worked hand-in-hand with our partners from the initial planning stages,
jumped in at the development and testing stage, or offered support only
during the final on-site verification process.
How we get involved is completely up to you.
The Lab offers a variety of collaborative approaches involving everything
from basic planning and development/testing to on-site verification.
Choose the one that’s right for your project.
Approach #1
With full collaboration, we jump in at the basic planning stage and carry our partners through development and on-site verification.
We may also sign business partnership agreements and engage in joint development projects.
Note: Each project is different, with the Lab involved in different ways.
Approach #2
With this approach, the Lab primarily conducts on-site verification. We may also participate in earlier stages of development (such as prototyping), or stick with our partners through final rollout.
Note: Each project is different, with the Lab involved in different ways.
Approach #3
With these projects, the Lab joins once development is complete,
getting involved once on-site verification starts. We may also stay partnered through final rollout.
Note: Each project is different, with the Lab involved in different ways.
