SEKISUI CHEMICAL CO., LTD. Fujitsu Limited, and SAP Japan Co., Ltd. today announced the comprehensive modernization of SEKISUI CHEMICAL's management platform. This modernization project aims to enhance data-driven and agile management decision making by implementing SAP S/4HANA® Cloud [1] as the new core system. The first phase, focusing on accounting systems, commenced in April 2025. Moving forward, SAP S/4HANA Cloud will be gradually rolled out to approximately 100 SEKISUI CHEMICAL Group companies around the world, enabling SEKISUI CHEMICAL to centralize and unify adminstration and data management across its group companies globally, while also standardizing platforms for sales and purchasing management in addition to the accounting foundation.
SEKISUI CHEMICAL initiated a company-wide digital transformation project to enhance long-term corporate value in today's uncertain business environment where companies must respond quickly to change. As part of this, the company launched a global management transformation project in 2021, beginning the modernization project to adopt SAP, a global standard. Through this project, SEKISUI CHEMICAL aims to enhance company management and create new value through the establishment of a data-driven approach.
Fujitsu, leveraging its original methodology [2] – a culmination of over 40 years of experience as a global SAP partner – provided robust support for the execution and implementation of SAP S/4HANA Cloud and other solutions, including SAP® Business Technology Platform [3]. For this project, Fujitsu utilized its Japan Global Gateway and Global Delivery Center in India to establish a system for speedy and high-quality core system modernization. Fujitsu will continue to provide comprehensive support until the project's completion, drawing on its extensive expertise and internal implementation references.
SAP Japan will continue to support SEKISUI CHEMICAL in building a management foundation. Through providing Japanese and global insights, case studies, and optimal solutions, SAP Japan will contribute to SEKISUI CHEMICAL's sustainable corporate value creation by enabling integrated utilization of a wide range of financial and non-financial information.
