Nippon Express Co., Ltd. and NX Information Systems Co., Ltd.
The Information Technology Promotion Division of Nippon Express Co., Ltd. and NX Information Systems Co., Ltd., which oversee the system management and operations of NX GROUP., work to reduce CO2 emissions (Scope 3) within the supply chain to address climate change, one of Material Issues for NX GROUP. NX GROUP leverages IT to provide new services and improve operational efficiency to address labor shortages and other issues in logistics. However, the company was concerned about an increase in Scope 3 emissions as the number of servers needed to support advancements in digital transformation (DX) and IT grows.
To address these concerns, the companies transitioned to cloud services that offer flexible operation based on server usage, enabling energy savings through optimized infrastructure utilization. Transitioning to a cloud service powered primarily by renewable energy sources enabled the companies to utilize clean energy. The companies reduce CO2 emissions through the gradual implementation of energy-saving and renewable energy measures.
Renewing IT infrastructure lead to measures that not only enhance robust operational structure and user convenience but also support initiatives aligned with the sustainability management of NX GROUP. Employees contribute to nature and sustainable management by utilizing renewable energy sources through their daily use of company systems.
The companies will remain committed to prioritizing sustainability management in their future efforts to address climate change.
