OBAYASHI CORPORATION
 PROFILE
OBAYASHI makes buildings of Olympic proportions. One of Japan's leading general contractors, its projects include Stadium Australia, the main venue for the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, and the bobsled and luge runs used during the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano. A pioneer in the development of earthquake-resistant building techniques, the company provides services for every phase of construction. Other businesses include real estate; construction equipment and materials; building maintenance and services; information processing; facilities management; insurance and financial services. To counter the downturn in Japan's construction industry, OBAYASHI has reduced subcontracting costs and personnel expenses.
