I don't think there are any municipal construction projects that use the Construction Career Advancement System!

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Hey, everyone! Are you using the Career Advancement System? We’ve been subscribed for a few years now, but we’ve never used it even once, lol. We work as first- and second-tier subcontractors for the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and other municipalities, but we’ve never used it at all. &n…

A wild idea: If we tweaked the Construction Career Up System (CCUS) card a bit more, wouldn't it become a card that people actually use?

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Are you using the Construction Career Up System (CCUS)? We haven’t used it yet, lol. Well, that’s fine as it is, but I’d like to see it become a more useful tool, so I’ve been thinking about how we can actually use it…

Behind the Construction Career Advancement System | A Government Conspiracy

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Before I knew it, I was doing lower back exercises lol. Today, I’m featuring a CCUS video by Ishio-kun on YouTube, which I also introduced last month. Last time, I shared the full video. This time, I’m posting the second part, but I’ll include the full video as well. If you haven’t seen it yet, you absolutely have to check it out…

The Rampant Forgery of Site Access Cards and CCUS | Challenges

Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. I’ve been driving around since the other day—I went from Nagano to Yamanashi and back, so it feels like I’ve gone all the way around Nagano. My back is killing me! As soon as I get back, I’m heading straight to my regular chiropractor lol. Anyway, I heard from someone the other day that at a certain job site, when you enter the site, you have to show your ID card…

Certification as a Vendor Ineligible if Unable to Issue Invoices | Consumption Tax

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The invoice system is a hot topic in the construction industry right now, isn’t it? I’m sure there are plenty of you wondering, “What exactly is the invoice system?” If you’re a salaried employee at a corporation that’s subject to consumption tax, this probably doesn’t affect you much, but if you’re a sole proprietor (with an annual…

Will Registering for CCUS Increase the Quote by X%? | Unit Price Negotiations

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Spring is here, and I’m about to start a new construction project, but it turns out I’m required to use the CCUS (Career Advancement System) lol. Or rather, it seems to be becoming somewhat mandatory, so I’m getting around to registering soon. Actually, I registered last year…

A Tough World for Solo Contractors | The Reality of the Construction Industry

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It looks like the rules for sole proprietors are going to get stricter and stricter. Looking through the documents on this topic, it seems like they’re basically saying, “We don’t need sole proprietors, do we?” Indeed, there have been recent accidents where people ask, “Which company’s employee was that? Or rather, who was that, anyway??”…

Will It Be Possible to Address the Shortage of Skilled Workers in the Future? | The Future of the Construction Industry

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, while driving from Nagano to Shizuoka on the Chuo Expressway, I snapped a great shot of Mount Fuji lol. Mount Fuji really is awesome, isn't it? By the way, I was talking to the president of a company in Shizuoka, and he said that with the number of engineers dropping this much, prime contractors…
