Confirmed by official sources

SMRJ’s calendar lists 30 October 2026 as the sixth application deadline. Conditions differ between standard, invoice-related, security and other categories. Consult the guidelines for your category.

Your preferred system is not automatically eligible

The official site provides category, support provider and registered tool information. A software project, including bespoke development, is not automatically eligible. Confirm registration and permitted contract timing in the guidelines or with the program office.

Editorial suggestion: start with the workflow

Define the workflow, current workload, functions and future operator before selecting tools. VERSAROC accepts consultations on workflow analysis, UX design, system development and implementation. Eligibility and award decisions remain with the administering body. Contact: info@versaroc.co.jp.
