Fujitsu Partners with Mitsubishi Electric for Process Improvement
KAWASAKI, Japan, Dec 10, 2024 – Fujitsu has entered into a collaborative agreement with Mitsubishi Electric Engineering, offering advanced process visualization and analysis services. Their approach leverages the process mining capabilities of the “SAP Signavio” platform, which plays a key role in facilitating business transformation.
Mitsubishi Electric Engineering recently installed its current system using SAP S/4HANA in 2022 and is gearing up for a significant system upgrade slated for 2025. In preparation for this upgrade, the company aims to enhance cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency by thoroughly evaluating its core business processes, such as sales and procurement, with a keen eye on improving operational quality and standardizing procedures.
To aid this evaluation, Fujitsu has implemented its visualization and analysis services, which offer continuous monitoring and evaluation of the current system’s impact. By analyzing log data from Mitsubishi Electric’s system, Fujitsu was able to uncover bottlenecks and inconsistencies in business operations. With insights fueled by their expertise in SAP solutions, Fujitsu consultants made targeted proposals for improving these processes. Collaborative workshops with Mitsubishi Electric Engineering followed, enabling the two parties to refine these proposals further and pinpoint specific business challenges and strategies for improvement. This proactive, data-driven methodology significantly reduced the traditional consulting assessment period, condensing what usually takes six to twelve months into just about one month, thus allowing more time for focused discussions on important business matters.
Fujitsu is committed to extending its support for Mitsubishi Electric Engineering’s ongoing process enhancement efforts. This partnership exemplifies Fujitsu’s goal to assist various organizations in fostering continuous improvements and adapting to ever-evolving business landscapes.
