Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus, method, and program.

Background Art

[0002] In business activities, transactions are conducted while concluding contracts between parties. When concluding a contract, various departments within each party review the contract terms, examine the wording of the contract document, and then proceed to draft the contract. In addition, based on comments on each clause of the contract document from the counterparty of the contracting party, the parties agree on the contract terms, finalize the content of the contract document, and conclude the contract.

[0003] Conclusion of contracts through electronic contracts is also being promoted. Patent Document 1 points out the problem of "preventing unauthorized agency by unauthorized persons in electronic contract services", and describes that "by enabling the receiver side of the electronic contract service to set an appropriate approver, it is possible to suppress unauthorized agency when a receiver without decision-making authority is set."

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0005] On the other hand, employees also demonstrate their work achievements both within and outside the organization. For example, they explain their achievements during internal performance reviews. They also create resumes and explain their achievements when changing jobs. When trying to describe specific work results, it is necessary to recall them afterward, and it is possible that they cannot remember everything. As a result, they may not be able to fully demonstrate their achievements, and both the job seeker and the employer may end up making decisions based on uncertain information. Furthermore, even when an employee is evaluated based on their individual achievements within the company, if they cannot adequately recall their achievements, the evaluation cannot be made correctly.

[0006] Therefore, there is a need for technology that can support the proper evaluation of personnel by making it easy to explain individual achievements, which can be useful in various aspects such as recruitment and evaluation. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] According to one embodiment, a program is provided for operating a computer having one or more computer processors. A memory unit is configured to store contract data, which are concluded contracts approved by the parties to the contract. The memory unit stores information on concluded contracts in which a user has been involved in concluding, associated with information that identifies the user. The program causes one or more computer processors to perform the steps of: acquiring information that identifies the user; referring to the acquired information that identifies the user; and outputting information on the user's contract conclusion record to an output destination independent of the organization to which the user belongs. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] According to this disclosure, by making it easy to explain individual achievements, it can be useful in various aspects such as recruitment and evaluation, and can support the appropriate evaluation of personnel. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0019] Further, in the following description, control lines and information lines are those considered necessary for the explanation, and not all control lines and information lines on the product are necessarily shown. All the components may be connected to each other.

[0020] <Outline of Embodiment> Hereinafter, embodiments will be described.

[0021] <First Embodiment> <1.1 Overall Configuration Diagram of System> FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of a system 1.

[0022] The system 1 shown in FIG. 1 includes a server 20 for contract conclusion and document management services, a user terminal 10, a server 92 for business support system services, a server 93 for document review services, a server 95 for artificial intelligence (large language model) services, a server 96 for document creation services, and a server 97 for sales support system services. Each of these devices is communicatively connected via a network 80.

[0023] In the illustrated example, terminal 10 is shown as the terminal used by users of the contract signing and document management service provided by server 20, but each user operates their own terminal.

[0024] Server 20 is a device that provides services for concluding contracts electronically and for managing document data concluded electronically. It should be noted that in System 1, the contract conclusion service provided by Server 20 and the document data management service may be provided by separate devices or different service providers. For example, Server 20 provides a document management service and, in addition to electronically signed contract data, may also optically scan paper contracts with seals to extract information such as the contract period and whether the contract is automatically renewed, and manage this information along with the scanned contract data. This allows for notifications to be sent to the user when the contract period expires.

[0025] Server 20 may also be a server that provides services to support tasks such as submitting approval requests to organizations (business companies, etc.) that conduct business activities. For example, Server 20 provides a service to users that enables them to design a workflow for obtaining budget approval with multiple users.

[0026] Terminal 10 is a device operated by the user.

[0027] The business support system service server 92 provides users with tools that can be used for the organization's business operations. The business support system service server 92 provides users with a system for submitting approval requests as part of the organization's business operations. The business support system service server 92 may also communicate with server 20 to provide server 20 with data accumulated by the approval request service.

[0028] The document review service server 93 accepts document data such as contracts and term sheets that define contract terms, and provides users with information on whether each clause is advantageous or disadvantageous to the company, whether there are any missing clauses, and the importance of the review items, thereby supporting the review of the document data. The document review service server 93 provides the above review support service using rule-based or pre-trained models. As a rule-based approach, for example, it may be possible to perform rule-based reviews of document data by associating specific wording or expressions with pre-defined information on whether the conditions are advantageous or disadvantageous, and explanations. Alternatively, for example, it may be possible to provide the above review service by generating a pre-trained model that responds with review results to document data input, using data from expert reviews of contracts, term sheets, etc., as training data. Furthermore, the document review service server 93 can also summarize the contents of contracts and generate review comments using a large-scale language model, and provide the results to the user. For example, the document review service server 93 may prompt the large-scale language model service server 95 with the document data to be reviewed (such as contract data) and information indicating the review criteria, and instruct the server 95 to perform the review according to the review criteria. By receiving the output of the large-scale language model service server 95, the server 93 may generate review comments for the document data. The document review service server 93 may also communicate with server 20 to provide the server 20 with data accumulated by the document review service.

[0029] Server 95 of the Large-Scale Language Model Service is a server that executes language processing tasks using language models built through learning processes including artificial intelligence (AI). An LLM (Large Language Model) is a model that has been pre-trained on large amounts of data (such as text data), for example, a large amount of web content on the internet, or a large amount of data stored in a designated database, and can perform various language processing tasks by being given a task.

[0030] The AI ​​service server 95 (sometimes referred to as the "large-scale language model service server 95") accepts prompt input in the form of text, images, audio, etc., and generates and responds with answers to those prompts. Examples of LLMs include GPT-3, GPT-4, and GPT-4o developed by OpenAI, and BERT developed by Google.

[0031] The document creation service server 96 provides a service for managing document data such as meeting minutes in organizations conducting business activities. Server 96 can issue URLs (Uniform Resource Locators) for accessing document data, and for example, if the user account of a user of the document creation service has access rights to the document data, the document data can be accessed via the URL. The document creation service server 96 may also be linked with a server that provides a schedule management service with calendar functionality, so that user accounts are common to both services. For example, having a user account may allow access to both the schedule management service and the document creation service. In this case, if document data from the document creation service is associated with a schedule, access rights to that document data may be set for users participating in the schedule.

[0032] The document creation service server 96 may communicate with server 20 to provide server 20 with data accumulated by the document creation service.

[0033] The sales support system service server 97 provides services to support sales activities. For example, the sales support system service server 97 provides the following to the user: • For each sales project, manage information such as the client, transaction details (amount, goods), transaction history (memos, meeting minutes, etc.), and responsible parties (our company, the other party, etc.). • Provide analysis results of sales performance for each sales team (e.g., trends in closing rates). The server 97 of the sales support system service may communicate with the server 20 to provide the server 20 with the data accumulated by the sales support system service.

[0034] In this embodiment, each device (terminal device, server, etc.) can also be considered as an information processing device. That is, the collection of each device can be considered as a single "information processing device," and System 1 may be formed as a collection of multiple devices. The way in which the multiple functions required to realize System 1 according to this embodiment are distributed to one or more hardware can be appropriately determined in view of the processing capacity of each hardware and / or the specifications required for System 1.

[0035] Terminal 10 can be implemented, for example, as follows: • Handheld mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets • Stationary PCs (Personal Computers), Laptop PCs • Wearable devices worn by the user (watch-type, glasses-type, etc.) Terminal 10 includes a communication interface (IF) 12, an input device 13, an output device 14, memory 15, storage 16, and a processor 19.

[0036] The communication interface 12 is an interface for inputting and outputting signals so that terminal 10 can communicate with an external device.

[0037] The input device 13 is a device for receiving input operations from the user (for example, a touch panel, touchpad, pointing device such as a mouse, keyboard, etc.).

[0038] The output device 14 is a device (such as a display or speaker) for presenting information to the user.

[0039] Memory 15 is for temporarily storing programs and data processed by programs, etc., and is a volatile memory such as DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory).

[0040] Storage 16 is for storing data, and can be, for example, flash memory or an HDD (Hard Disk Drive).

[0041] The processor 19 is hardware for executing the instruction set described in the program, and consists of an arithmetic unit, registers, peripheral circuits, etc.

[0042] The server 20 includes a communication interface 22, an input / output interface 23, memory 25, storage 26, and a processor 29.

[0043] Communication IF22 is an interface for inputting and outputting signals so that the server 20 can communicate with external devices.

[0044] Input / Output IF23 functions as an interface between an input device for receiving user input operations and an output device for presenting information to the user.

[0045] Memory 25 is for temporarily storing programs and data processed by programs, etc., and is a volatile memory such as DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory).

[0046] Storage 26 is for storing data, and can be, for example, flash memory or an HDD (Hard Disk Drive).

[0159] The item "Automatic Renewal Status" indicates, in the document data, whether or not the contract period will be automatically extended (automatically renewed) without the parties specifically renegotiating a new contract upon the expiration of the contract period.

[0160] The item "Viewing Permission" is information about users who are set to have viewing permission for documents (e.g., contracts) managed in the document management database 216. Server 20 may allow users set as stakeholders of a document to view the document, and may not allow users who are not set to view the document to view it.

[0161] Specifically, the "Viewing Permissions" item may be used to manage the following users as stakeholders in the document data. - Users recorded in the contract management database 215 as users who approve document data. Note that the server 20 may identify the parties involved in the document data by referring to the users who approved the document data in the contract management database 215, rather than retaining the information of the parties involved in the document management database 216. • In the contract signing service provided by Server 20, in addition to the user who approves the document data, the server also accepts the designation of users to whom the data will be shared once the contract is signed. These designated users (the users to whom the data is transferred) are the ones specified. For example, in the case of minutes of a board meeting, a director may approve the document data, and then share the approved minutes with other users such as executive officers. • Other users designated by users who approve the document data, users who have permission to view the document data, etc. Furthermore, the "Viewing Permissions" item may be configured to include information that identifies departments or divisions within an organization, rather than individuals. For example, it may be possible to configure information corresponding to the "Department" item in user database 211. In other words, by defining which departments or divisions can view documents, users in those departments or divisions within the organization can view the documents.

[0190] <3 operations> Figure 11 shows the process flow for aggregating contract signing results and extracting and abstracting the results data according to the output destination.

[0191] In step S1111, terminal 10, after the user logs in, inputs the aggregation conditions for contract signing results (aggregation period, output destination, desired level of abstraction, etc.) and starts using the system. Terminal 10 adds the input conditions and user identification information and sends a request to server 20 to start aggregation, extraction, and abstraction processing.

[0192] The following describes the process by which Server 20 verifies an individual's achievements by linking documents created by that individual and contracts concluded with other companies to that individual's specific ID.

[0193] The document management database 216 of the memory unit 202 is configured to store contract data, which consists of concluded contracts approved by the parties to the contract.

[0194] In the document management database 216, contract signing management database 215, review history database 214, approval request database 213, etc., of the memory unit 202, information on concluded contracts in which the user was involved in signing is stored, associated with information that identifies the user.

[0195] The user database 211 of the storage unit 202 may store information that identifies a user, regardless of their affiliated organization (such as personal identification numbers issued by administrative organizations, as described later, or user IDs for general-purpose payment applications, etc.). The server 20 may also acquire this user-identifying information in response to user operations.

[0196] In step S1121, the document management module 2045 of the server 20 obtains information to identify the user. Based on the received request, the document management module 2045 extracts the user's identification information and contract signing record data from the storage unit 202 and performs aggregation processing of the target data. As described in step S1124 below, the document management module 2045 refers to the information that identifies the acquired user and outputs information on the contract signing record for that user to an output destination that is not related to the organization to which the user belongs. • User-identifying information: Information issued to identify a user, regardless of their affiliated organization. In the memory unit 202, information on concluded contracts in which the user has been involved is stored, associated with identification information issued to identify the user regardless of the organization to which the user belongs. The document management module 2045 acquires identification information issued to the user regardless of the organization to which the user belongs. The document management module 2045 performs output by referring to the acquired user identification information. • User-identifying information: Personal identification numbers issued by government organizations (e.g., personal identification number on My Number card), user IDs for payment applications and messenger applications, etc. The storage unit 202 stores, as user identification information, at least one of the following: a personal number issued by an administrative organization, user identification information issued by a payment application to users of the payment application, and user identification information issued by a messaging service to users of a messaging service that enables the sending and receiving of messages between users. The document management module 2045 may acquire, as user identification information, at least one of the personal number, user identification information of the payment application, or user identification information of the messaging service. • Completed contracts in which the user was involved in the signing process: Users who were incorporated into the contract signing workflow. The contract management database 215 of the memory unit 202 stores information about users who have been set as approvers when a contract is concluded electronically, as information to identify the user. The document management module 2045 may also acquire information about users who have been set as approvers when a contract is concluded electronically. • Completed contracts in which the user was involved in the signing: Users included in the contract approval workflow. In the approval request database 213 of the memory unit 202, user information is stored as information to identify users in the process of processing approval requests for contract signing within the organization. The document management module 2045 may also retrieve user information that was set in the process of processing approval requests. • Completed contracts in which the user was involved in the signing: Users associated with the deal record in the sales support system. The deal and the contract signing record are linked. In the memory unit 202, information about users associated with the transaction related to the contract is stored as user identification information, specifically user information linked to the case record in the sales support system (sales support system service server 97). The document management module 2045 may also retrieve user information set in the case record of the sales support system. • Completed contracts in which the user was involved in the signing: Users associated with the contract review log In the review history database 214 of the memory unit 202, user information is stored as information to identify the user, associated with the review logs of the contract review service (document review service server 93) that reviews the contract terms of the contract. The document management module 2045 may also obtain the user information set in the review logs of the contract review service.

[0197] In step S1122, the document management module 2045 of the server 20 applies a process to the aggregated results that takes into account the requirements of each output destination and masks or summarizes (abstracts) some of the necessary data items (e.g., contract amount, contracting party, etc.) for certain information (e.g., contracting party, contract amount, etc.).

[0198] In step S1123, the document management module 2045 of server 20 formats the extracted and abstracted data to match the format of the output destination (such as resumes for job seekers, reports for job interviews, internal evaluation systems, and external matching services), and generates the final output dataset. • Specific example of output destination: Output for job seeker's resume. The document management module 2045 may output information about a user's contract signing record to the data in the job changer's resume. For example, it could output the aggregated results of contract signing record information to the work experience section of the resume. This makes it easier to create the resume data. • Specific examples of output destinations: Output to interviewers in job interviews, recruitment agencies, and websites for recruitment agencies. The document management module 2045 may output information on a user's contract signing record to at least one of the following: the person in charge of the user's job interview, the recruitment agency, or the computer providing the job placement service. This facilitates the notification of contract signing record information to these stakeholders. • Specific examples of output destinations: Freelance websites, skill-sharing websites (services that match users who offer skills with users who want to offer their skills and request tasks such as creating deliverables). The document management module 2045 may output information on the user's contract signing record to at least one of the following: a side-job matching service that matches freelancers with clients, and a skills provision service that matches users with clients by providing their skills. This makes it easier for users to register their initial track record when using these services. • Specific example of output destination: Evaluator during internal evaluations The document management module 2045 may output information on a user's contract signing record to the personnel evaluation officer within the organization to which the user belongs. This makes it easier to create and view performance records for personnel evaluation.

[0199] Furthermore, the document management module 2045 may also aggregate data for each evaluation period in preparation for internal evaluations. The document management module 2045 may aggregate information on a user's contract signing record for each period subject to personnel evaluation within the organization to which the user belongs, and output the aggregated results for each period. • Output content: If you have worked for multiple companies due to job changes, the output will show your performance at each company in chronological order. The document management module 2045 may output information on a user's contract signing history, and if the user has worked for multiple organizations in their career history, it may output information on their contract signing history for each organization.

[0200] Here, the document management module 2045 may mask or abstract detailed information (such as amounts and contracting parties) when a user changes jobs (e.g., classifying the range and the number of contracting parties by sales volume). The document management module 2045 may also output information on a user's contracting history, if the user has worked for multiple companies in their employment history, either by not disclosing the contract terms for each contract related to that history, or by abstracting the contract terms before outputting them.

[0201] Furthermore, the document management module 2045 may output a summary of what the user did in concluding a contract (as a log, including sales support, content of contract review, whether negotiations were conducted to finalize contract terms, whether notification of contract signing was sent, and the progress of negotiations (e.g., negotiations on price, delivery date, payment cycle)). The document management module 2045 may also output a summary of negotiation stage data by referring to the negotiation stage data for each contract related to the conclusion of the contract, as information on the user's contract conclusion record. • Other performance metrics include: In addition to contract signing results, performance in document creation, such as sales presentation material creation, will also be included in the performance statistics. The document management module 2045 may also aggregate information on the contract signing record for users, along with the record of document creation, including the creation of sales materials related to the contract signing, and output the aggregated results.

[0202] In step S1124, the document management module 2045 of the server 20 sends the formatted output data to the terminal 10 or an external linked system using a predetermined transfer protocol, thereby completing the output processing.

[0203] In step S1112, terminal 10 receives the transmitted output data and presents its contents to the user on the user interface. Terminal 10 performs operations such as recalculation and condition modification as necessary, enabling the user to review the final results.

[0204] <4 Screen Examples> Figure 12 shows an example of the operation screen for a process that aggregates contract signing results and extracts and abstracts the results data according to the output destination. Operation screen 1200 is the operation screen for a process that aggregates contract signing results and extracts and abstracts the results data according to the output destination. Operation screen 1200 corresponds to each process in Figure 11.

[0205] The aggregated results display area 1202 is an area that displays a summary or list of extracted and abstracted contract signing results in tabular format.

[0206] The detailed preview display area 1204 is a scrollable area where you can view and check the details of individual contract performance (negotiation history, specific information after masking, etc.).

[0207] The output format preview area 1206 is an area that displays previews and samples of data formats (PDF, CSV, graph format, etc.) that match the output destination.

[0208] The aggregation period specification section 1208 is a field for selecting the period (start date to end date) of the contract signing record to be targeted using a calendar or dropdown menu, and is an operating component that accepts the specification.

[0209] The output destination specification section 1210 is a field for specifying the output destination of data from a list, such as a job seeker's resume, interview report, internal evaluation, or external matching service, and is an operating component that accepts the specification.

[0210] The abstraction level specification unit 1212 is an operating component that specifies the level of detail of the output data and sets the level of abstraction, such as displaying / hiding specific contract conditions or displaying a range of numerical data, using a dropdown menu or slider.

[0211] The condition input text specification section 1214 is a field where users can freely enter conditions they wish to further refine, such as department name or contract type, and is an operating component that accepts these specifications.

[0212] The aggregation execution operation unit 1216 is an operation button that initiates the extraction, aggregation, and abstraction processing of contract performance based on the input conditions, and is an operation component that accepts operations.

[0213] The condition reset operation unit 1218 is a button that resets the conditions of each entered item to their initial state, making it easier to re-enter them, and is an operating component that accepts the operation.

[0214] The output confirmation operation unit 1220 is a button that allows the user to make a final confirmation of the previewed content and execute output processing (such as downloading or sending to an external source), and is an operating component that accepts user input.

[0215] The output cancellation operation unit 1222 is an operation button that cancels the current output processing or preview content and returns to the input conditions screen, and is an operation component that accepts operations.

[0216] <Other> The features described in each of the above embodiments can be combined. In the above description of embodiments, an example was described in which the server 20 communicates with the server 95 of the large-scale language model service to prompt the large-scale language model and have it execute processing. In this way, the server 20 can prompt a system that performs language processing to perform information processing according to the prompt. Such an information processing system that performs language processing may use an external device (for example, the server 95 of the large-scale language model service), or it may be executed by an information processing system built into the server 20 or terminal 10 (for example, a processor for language processing).

[0217] A network consists of various mobile communication systems, such as the internet, LANs, and wireless base stations. For example, a network includes 3G, 4G, and 5G mobile communication systems, LTE (Long Term Evolution), and wireless networks that can connect to the internet via designated access points (e.g., Wi-Fi®). When connecting wirelessly, communication protocols include, for example, Z-Wave®, ZigBee®, and Bluetooth®. When connecting via a wired connection, the network also includes connections made directly via USB (Universal Serial Bus) cables, etc.

[0218] Furthermore, by distributing all or part of each hardware configuration across multiple computers and connecting them to each other via a network, a computer can be virtually realized. Thus, the concept of a computer includes not only computers housed in a single enclosure or case, but also virtualized computer systems.

[0219] A database, specifically a relational database, is used to manage and link together tabular data sets called masters, which are structurally defined by rows and columns.
