Social Security And Tax Number System Case Study

At the end of spring in 2016, I achieved implementation of the Social Security and Tax Number System (SSTNS), which is similar to SSN in the U.S., to a local government as a business consultant coordinating with the local government staff.

The SSTNS has just been launched in January 2016 around Japan, and public organizations now use this system as administrative procedures related to social security (pensions, labor, healthcare, social welfare), taxation, and disaster response. Also, the Japanese Government announced that they would start considering the expansion of coverage of SSTNS to the private
Especially, a vertical administrative structure in an organization makes less productive management.

In fact, there are some success cases of the PPP in

However, I noticed that there are some different characteristics of management between the private sector and the public sector. Also, conducting research for various types of PPP (e.g. solicited, unsolicited, mixed) in the U.S., is necessary to have a diversity of perspectives for my further
