With the adoption of Microsoft for startups, VFR has adopted Microsoft Azure as the cloud platform to drive its ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) in anticipation of global expansion. By operating our ERP on the highly secure and reliable Microsoft Azure platform, it will be possible to manage orders and suppliers in the drone manufacturing process, as well as to plan production and purchasing related to orders and sales. In addition, Microsoft’s global network will enable seamless collaboration with outsourced manufacturing partners in Japan and overseas even in the future.
