[0052] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described using the drawings.

[0053] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram showing an overview of the present service that can be realized by various processes executed by the server of one embodiment of the information processing device of the present invention.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, this service provides DB suitable for people belonging to companies that operate multiple businesses.

[0055] Here, there are no specific restrictions on the multiple businesses as long as the goods or items used to provide services are common. For the sake of convenience, multiple businesses are used, including the leasing business of commercial cargo transport vehicles T (hereinafter referred to as "trucks T") and the fund for trucks T (hereinafter referred to as "truck funds").

[0056] Leasing business refers to the following businesses.

[0057] In the past, transportation company R has had a problem of increasing costs related to the acquisition of truck T. That is, in the transportation industry and the logistics industry, financial leasing is usually used to acquire trucks (borrowing the purchase funds and buying truck T). Therefore, the initial costs spent on equipment investment or the monthly maintenance and management costs after purchasing truck T have become a significant burden. In recent years, the soaring fuel costs and the low price of transportation fees have further increased the burden.

[0058] Therefore, a leasing service is provided to transportation company R to acquire truck T using operating lease. That is, transportation company R does not "purchase" truck T but only "borrows" truck T when necessary, such as when the business expands, so as to evenly distribute the acquisition and maintenance management costs of truck T. The business that realizes such a mechanism is the leasing service.

[0059] That is, truck T is an important asset for transportation company R. On the other hand, it is also a fact that continuously owning truck T will bring pressure to the operation for transportation company R. Therefore, transportation company R hopes to use the leasing service to achieve the transformation from "holding operation" to "non-holding operation" so as to improve the financial situation.

[0060] Furthermore, transportation company R can also give full play to the advantages of the leasing service and transform into an offensive operation. Here, as the advantages of transportation company R using the leasing service, there are the first to the fourth advantages. The first advantage is that it can achieve the off-balance-sheet of the assets (truck T) of transportation company R. The second advantage is to increase the means of acquiring truck T. The third advantage is that it is possible to borrow truck T even in the short term (1 to 3 years). The fourth advantage is that it can evenly distribute the vehicle acquisition costs.

[0061] Furthermore, when the company using this service operates a leasing service, the company can use the comprehensive DB11 described below. Therefore, as the advantages of transportation company R using the leasing service, the fifth to the eighth advantages are additionally added. The fifth advantage is that it can ensure a large inventory of truck T for the company, so it is possible to deliver the vehicle within the shortest 3 days and respond quickly in case of a breakdown. The sixth advantage is that it can reduce the burden of vehicle inspection, repair costs, vehicle and vessel taxes, etc. The seventh advantage is that it can use commercial vehicle license plates (green license plates). The eighth advantage is that it can respond to the high-price acquisition of sale and leaseback.

[0062] Here, the eighth advantage is explained in detail. The company using the comprehensive DB11 described below can use truck T for a long time. Therefore, compared with ordinary used vehicle acquisition operators, it can conduct a high-price evaluation and acquisition of truck T. Thus, it can also play a role when transportation company R urgently raises funds. On the other hand, the rental price of truck T can be set at a low price. Thus, transportation company R can "sell at a high price and borrow at a low price" truck T and "continuously use it without holding it".

[0063] The above explains the leasing business operated by the Company.

[0064] Next, the truck fund managed by the company will be described. The details of the truck fund are described in Japanese Patent No. 6554652 of the present applicant, and a brief description will be given below.

[0065] Truck Fund is a new type of fund that can support transportation company R.

[0066] That is, the truck fund is a fund with a high degree of social contribution related to management support for the transportation company R and revitalization of the transportation and logistics industries.

[0067] As mentioned above, for transportation company R, which naturally needs to "purchase" vehicles, a new method of "borrowing" has been proposed to promote financial improvement by off-balance sheet assets. Such a fund is the truck fund.

[0068] The Truck Fund invests in trucks T (including trailers) purchased from Seller S, and the company manages the assets. Dividends paid to Investor I are funded by the rental fees of Truck T.

[0069] In this way, the company operates both a leasing business and a truck fund. Both the leasing business and the truck fund target truck T. In other words, the company can use its own truck T for leasing as well as for the truck fund. Therefore, similar to the leasing business and the truck fund, the company's client becomes transportation company R. Furthermore, in the truck fund, investor I also becomes the company's client.

[0070] Therefore, it would be convenient for the company if customer information and various information related to the truck T (hereinafter referred to as "vehicle information") were shared between the truck fund and the rental business.

[0071] Therefore, in this service, various information related to the rental business (hereinafter referred to as "rental information"), various information related to truck funds (hereinafter referred to as "fund information"), and information that integrates vehicle information (hereinafter referred to as "comprehensive information") are stored in the integrated DB 11. Company members can access the integrated DB 11 and utilize the comprehensive information to further develop the rental business, fund business, and other businesses related to trucks T (e.g., consulting and data solutions).

[0072] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the sales person in charge E of the company operates his own terminal 6 (hereinafter referred to as "seller terminal 6") to input sales information.

[0073] The business information includes “rental case information” which is business information related to the rental business, “fund case information” which is business information related to the truck fund, customer information, business activity information, and the like.

[0074] The business processing unit 21 of the server 1 managed by the provider of this service (hereinafter referred to as "service provider server 1") executes various processes related to the company's business (in this example, rental business and truck fund).

[0075] The business processing unit 21 receives business information input into the business operator terminal 6 and stores and manages it in the integrated database 11 and the customer database 12. For example, rental case information within the business information is stored in the integrated database 11 as part of the rental information. Fund case information within the business information is stored in the integrated database 11 as part of the fund information. Customer information within the business information is stored in the customer database 12, while customer information related to rental business customers is stored in the integrated database 11 as part of the rental information, and customer information related to truck fund customers is stored in the integrated database 11 as part of the fund information. Business activity information related to the rental business within the business information is stored in the integrated database 11 as part of the rental information, and business activity information related to truck funds is stored in the integrated database 11 as part of the fund information.

[0076] In addition, as information related to the specified truck funds, the business processing department 21 also stores and manages the information sent and received between the seller terminal 3 of the seller S and the information sent and received between the investor terminal 2 of the investor I as part of the fund information in the integrated DB11.

[0077] Furthermore, the business processing unit 21 stores and manages information exchanged with the terminal 4 of the transport company R (hereinafter referred to as "transport company terminal 4") as information related to rental business or truck funds in the integrated DB 11. In this case, information related to rental business is stored in the integrated DB 11 as part of the rental information, and information related to truck funds is stored in the integrated DB 11 as part of the fund information.

[0078] At the start and end of a rental business or truck fund, the truck T rented from the company is loaded and unloaded from the transport company R. Information on the loading and unloading of the truck T is transmitted from the transport company terminal 4 to the service provider server 1 .

[0079] When the vehicle processing unit 22 of the service provider server 1 acquires the entry and exit information of the truck T from the transportation company terminal 4 , it stores and manages the acquired information as part of the vehicle information in the integrated DB 11 .

[0080] The company provides a transportation company R with an application software for inspecting trucks T leased through a leasing business or a truck fund.

[0081] The transport company R uses the transport company terminal 4 installed with the application software to inspect the truck T and inputs information such as the inspection date, inspection content, and inspection results (hereinafter referred to as "inspection information").

[0082] When the vehicle processing unit 22 acquires the inspection information of the truck T from the transportation company terminal 4 , it stores and manages the acquired information as part of the vehicle information in the integrated DB 11 .

[0083] Furthermore, a drive recorder 5 is installed on a truck T leased from a company to a transport company R through a leasing business or a truck fund. The driving information of the truck T acquired by the drive recorder 5 is transmitted to the service provider server 1 .

[0084] When the vehicle processing unit 22 acquires the travel information from the drive recorder 5 of the truck T, it stores and manages the acquired information in the integrated DB 11 as part of the vehicle information.

[0085] Furthermore, the maintenance personnel SB appropriately performs maintenance on the truck T leased from the company to the transport company R through a leasing business or a truck fund.

[0086] Information such as the date, content, and results of maintenance performed by the maintenance worker SB (hereinafter referred to as “maintenance history information”) is input to the terminal 7 of the maintenance worker SB (hereinafter referred to as “maintenance worker terminal 7”) and transmitted to the service provider server 1 .

[0087] When the vehicle processing unit 22 acquires the maintenance history information of the truck T from the maintenance personnel terminal 7 , it stores and manages the information as part of the vehicle information in the integrated DB 11 .

[0088] The accounting processing unit 23 of the service provider server 1 executes processing related to accounting of various business operations of the company.

[0089] Among the information related to the accounting processing of the accounting processing unit 23 (hereinafter referred to as "accounting information"), accounting information related to the rental business is stored in the integrated DB 11 as part of the rental information, and accounting information related to the truck fund is stored in the integrated DB 11 as part of the fund information.

[0090] Figure 2 It shows the application Figure 1 A diagram schematically shows the configuration of an information processing system for the present service, that is, an information processing system of a service provider server including an embodiment of the information processing device of the present invention.

[0118] Figures 5 to 9 It is shown that the Figure 1 This is an example of a registration or confirmation screen for customers of this service, companies operating rental businesses, and truck funds.

[0119] As clients, there are a transportation company R that leases a truck T using a leasing business, and an investor I that purchases a truck fund as a commodity.

[0120] In addition, persons who register as customers using the customer registration screen include the customer himself (transportation company R or investor I himself), the company's sales manager E, and related personnel of the company (such as financial institutions).

[0121] Figures 5 to 9 The screen shown is an example of a screen used by a financial institution to introduce a customer to the company and register or confirm the registration content.

[0122] The financial institution (person in charge) operates a terminal (not shown) to display Figure 5 The customer registration screen of the company is used to register the basic information of the customers introduced to the company (also the customers of the financial institution itself). Here, registration means that the basic information stored in Figure 1 The customer DB12 is also associated with the comprehensive information of the comprehensive DB11.

[0123] Therefore, the financial institution can access the business processing unit 21 of the service provider server 1 by operating a terminal (not shown) and confirm various information about the introduced (and registered) customers. For example, the financial institution can confirm the status of the introduced customers, such as "negotiation in progress," "lost order," or "signed," and can also confirm the number of introductions, actual contract results, and handling fees each month.

[0132] The person in charge of the company operates the terminal (not shown) to display Figure 10 In the example screen of , the article number of the truck owned by the company or truck fund F is acquired as vehicle information having the article number and registered in the integrated DB 11.

[0133] Here, the service providing server 1 obtains the vehicle inspection certificate information by using RPA when acquiring the object number. For example, the service providing server 1 obtains the vehicle inspection certificate information from AIRIS (registered trademark) (Automotive Inspection Registration Information Service).

[0134] exist Figure 10 In this example, using Google's SpreadSheets(registered trademark), a specific row is associated with a truck T with a specific object number. In this specific row, the required information is entered into each field along with the object number. For example, the object number is entered in field A3, the vehicle number in field A4, and the vehicle registration number in field A5. The remaining fields are then used to enter various information that constitutes the vehicle inspection certificate. Based on the vehicle number and registration number input, the vehicle inspection certificate information is retrieved using AIRIS(registered trademark).

[0135] Then, like Figure 10 The content inputted as shown in the screen is registered in the integrated DB 11 as vehicle information in a prescribed format (vehicle main information).

[0136] Figure 11is shown for use on Figure 10 The example screen is registered as a Figure 1 This figure shows an example of a screen for confirming information on trucks owned by the company or truck fund of this service.

[0137] That is, the vehicle information of a predetermined truck T can be confirmed in a predetermined format (vehicle main information), but, for example, when the predetermined truck becomes a rental target of a rental business, Figure 11 As shown in the example of , it can also be confirmed as comprehensive information related to the rental information.

[0138] Furthermore, after the contract with the customer (transportation company R) is completed for a specific truck T as a rental object, it can be used Figure 12 In the example screen of , detailed data of the rental contract for the target is created as one of the rental information (comprehensive information related to vehicle information).

[0139] Figure 12 It is the use of Figure 1 This is a screen used by the company of this service, and shows an example of a screen for generating detailed data of a rental contract for a specified truck for which vehicle information exists, after completing a contract with a customer.

[0140] Depend on Figure 12 As can be seen from the example screen of , data such as the monthly rental fee and rental period of each truck T is stored in the integrated DB 11 as one of the rental information (integrated information associated with vehicle information).

[0141] For example, the company's financial manager operates a terminal (not shown) to display Figure 12 In the example screen, by simply pressing the "Request Data Inquiry" button, detailed data can be automatically generated by the service provider server 1.

[0142] Thus, when creating detailed data, although not shown in the figure, the person in charge of accounting can easily read the detailed data into the Yayoi (registered trademark) accounting system as CSV (registered trademark) data.

[0143] Furthermore, if Figure 13 As shown in the example screen, each of the plurality of trucks T has detailed data, and the service provider server 1 performs coordination (association of the latest version of vehicle information with the latest version of rental information and updating of comprehensive information) on a designated date each month.

[0144] Figure 13 It is the use of Figure 1The figure shows an example of a screen used by a company providing this service and used to confirm detailed data of each of a plurality of trucks having vehicle information.

[0145] However, when a truck T is returned after the lease contract expires, it is inspected and photographed when entering the warehouse at each depot. The inspection results and photographic data are stored and managed in the integrated DB 11 as part of the vehicle information.

[0146] Furthermore, after this, detailed historical data such as which truck T was repaired and how much money was spent can be added to the vehicle information for management.

[0147] Figure 14 This figure shows an example of an image for registering or confirming, as part of the vehicle information of a predetermined truck, a photograph of which is taken when the predetermined truck is parked at a predetermined parking lot and is to be returned upon expiration of the rental contract.

[0148] Figure 15 and Figure 16 This figure shows an example of an image for registering or confirming data of inspection results performed when a predetermined truck is put into storage at a predetermined depot and is to be returned upon expiration of a rental contract, as part of the vehicle information of the predetermined truck.

[0149] In addition, the information of the returned truck T is displayed on the website managed by the service provider server as Figure 17 That is, in the rental business, new rental objects can be found.

[0150] In addition, of course, it is also possible not to post on the website depending on the status of the truck T.

[0151] Figure 17 This is a diagram showing an example of a predetermined web page of a website that publishes information on uncontracted candidate trucks for rental business.

[0152] exist Figure 17 In the example website, the candidate truck T information is from Figure 1 The vehicle information of the truck T is extracted from the comprehensive DB11.

[0153] On the other hand, the monthly rental fee is different for each customer depending on the credit of the customer (transportation company R), etc. That is, if the customer information of the person browsing the website is registered in Figure 1 In the customer DB12, the customer logs in to the website and Figure 17 In the example, the monthly rental fee recorded as ASK can be automatically displayed (automatically calculated) as the amount applicable to the customer.

[0154] In addition, for websites used for rental business, Figure 17 The example only deals with inquiries, but this is just an example. By logging into the website, you can also perform "Contract Information Inquiry", "New Lease Contract Signing", "Renewal Lease Contract", "Return Procedure", "Document Sending", etc.

[0155] In the above, examples of integrated information combining vehicle information and rental information and a screen for registering or confirming the integrated information have been described.

[0156] Hereinafter, an example of comprehensive information obtained by combining at least one of vehicle information and rental information with fund information and a screen for registering or confirming the comprehensive information will be described.

[0157] Here, the object combined with the fund information is recorded as at least one of vehicle information and leasing information. This is because the truck T that becomes the investment object of the truck fund F can be a truck T that has already been leased in the leasing business, or it can be a truck T that is independent of the leasing business (not the object of leasing in the leasing business).

[0158] Figure 18 It is the use of Figure 1 This is a screen used by the company providing this service, and is a screen for inputting basic information among the screens for combining truck funds.

[0159] Figure 19 It is the use of Figure 1 This is a screen used by the company of this service, and is a screen for selecting a T-type truck (t is an integer greater than or equal to 1) to be included in the screen for combining truck funds and inputting information about the T-type truck.

[0160] Here, the combination includes not only determining the content of the truck fund F actually sold to the investor I, but also creating one or more candidates of the truck fund F obtained by simulation. Figure 20 In the following examples, it is considered that by using Figure 18 and Figure 19 The images are combined to determine the content of the truck fund F that is actually sold to investor I.

[0161] The service provider server 1 stores the contents of the combined truck fund F in the integrated DB 11 as fund information.

[0162] At this time, the fund information is associated with the vehicle information of the t trucks included in the truck fund F. If there is a truck T rented by the rental business among the t trucks T, it is associated with the rental information and stored and managed as comprehensive information in the comprehensive DB 11.

[0163] The company's sales manager E uses the business operator terminal 6 to request a combination of the completed truck fund T on the system (SF) using the customer database 12, and sells the combination to the investor I registered as a customer. When the investor I purchases the truck fund T, the information of the investor I is associated with the fund information of the truck fund F (the integrated information is updated).

[0164] Furthermore, detailed data on the truck fund T is automatically generated by the service provider server 1 as part of the comprehensive information and can be coordinated with the accounting information of Yayoi (registered trademark).

[0165] Here, the truck fund F can enter into an asset management contract with the company and lease the trucks T it has acquired to the company. In this case, the company leases the trucks T leased from the truck fund F to the transportation company R as part of the leasing business.

[0166] Figure 20 This is a diagram showing an example of a screen for confirming the bill details (included truck rental fees) sent from the truck fund to the company.

[0167] Furthermore, the Company manages the trucks leased from Truck Fund F under the aforementioned asset management contract. The Company charges Truck Fund F for the resulting management costs (which constitute one of its expenditures).

[0168] Figure 21 This is a diagram showing an example of a screen for confirming the details of the bill (such as management costs) sent by the company to the truck fund.

[0169] In addition, the final accounting information of multiple truck funds T managed by the company through asset management can also be managed by the service provider server 1 as fund information (comprehensive information), and business reports, principal repayment letters, etc. can also be automatically output through RPA.

[0170] Figure 22 and Figure 23 This is a diagram showing an example of a screen for registering a settlement summary in the settlement information of a truck fund.

[0171] Figure 24 An example of a business report of Truck Fund F is shown below.

[0172] exist Figure 24 In the example, the business report is output as Excel (registered trademark) data.

[0173] An embodiment of the present invention has been described above, but the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and modifications, improvements, etc. within the scope that can achieve the object of the present invention are also included in the present invention.

[0174] For example, in the above-described embodiment, the integrated information stored and managed in the integrated DB 11 is generated from the rental information, fund information, and vehicle information, assuming that the company operates a rental business and a truck fund. However, the present invention is not particularly limited to this.

[0175] For example, when a company or other specified group operates N (N is an integer greater than or equal to 2) businesses, and the goods or items used to provide services of the N businesses are common objects, the information related to each of the N businesses and the information related to the object can be matched and stored in the comprehensive DB 11 as comprehensive information.
