[Fukushima/Koriyama] AI Talent Development in SME Construction: One 'Seed' Employee Leads the Way [Hazuki Co., Ltd.]

Hazuki Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Koriyama, Fukushima; Representative Director: Taichi Morimura) announced that an employee has completed an AI reskilling course. To further promote AI talent development, the company launched internal reforms in May 2026. As a specialist in glass and sash construction based in Koriyama for over 60 years, the company is addressing the digital lag common in regional SMEs. To break through this, the company is utilizing generative AI. Rather than training all employees at once, they adopted a 'seeding' approach where one employee takes the course and spreads the knowledge. The company plans to continue digital reforms, including digitizing daily reports and automating estimates, to reduce the burden on each employee.
