HitachiSoft CSR
Together with Business Partners
HitachiSoft is always trying to construct fair and good relations with its business partners based upon mutual understanding.
Good Partnerships
HitachiSoft values good partnerships, mutual understanding and reliable relations with all of its business partners. We closely communicate with our clients through strong partnerships and contribute to society by placing a high priority on creating a win-win relationship for both parties.
Key Points for Building Good Partnerships
- Sharing project objectives
We regularly share various divisional objectives and HitachiSoft company policies that have been drawn up from a medium- to long-term perspective. We also strive to continuously improve our relations based on mutual trust through periodic exchange of information at the top level with our partners. - Aiming for high value-added products
We share the latest cutting-edge fields and technological trends in line with our business objectives and carry out solution strategies that include human asset development. - Strengthening overseas partnerships
We are strengthening our ties with overseas partners with the aim of expanding business with a broad global perspective. Through periodic liaison meetings and the Partner Link Service, our communication infrastructure, we ensure sufficient communication even over long distances when face-to-face contact is difficult.
Informative Meetings on Business Policies
HitachiSoft holds informative meetings on business policies. Following an explanation of management policies by Representative Executive Officer, President and CEO Isao Ono, the head of each division explains business priorities and partnership policies. In addition, each policy is discussed frankly by top executives, and communication is further cemented during social gatherings.

CSR Procurement (Fair trade)
We are committed to observing all laws and regulations relating to procurement, respecting not only the letter but also the spirit of the law.
Overview of CSR Procurement
- Sharing CSR
As part of its vendor selection process, HitachiSoft will use appropriate procedures to determine if vendors are meeting their corporate social responsibilities (CSR), in addition to evaluating other factors such as the quality, lead time and price of goods for procurement, and the technical development capabilities of vendors. - Prevention of Unfair Trading
Only the Procurement Division is authorized to request quotations from vendors and issue letters of intent and purchase orders to vendors so as to eliminate unfair trading. - Provision of Information and Non-disclosure of Confidential Information
HitachiSoft faithfully supplies necessary information to vendors. Furthermore, we endeavor to strictly manage any confidential business information we receive from vendors to ensure the non-disclosure of confidential information. - Inspection of Delivered Goods
HitachiSoft through its designated procurement departments may choose to inspect procurement goods that are delivered directly to its customers or work sites. Vendors are asked to cooperate with the inspection of delivered goods.
Green Procurement
Procuring components for HitachiSoft products
We purchase components for our main hardware products, StarBoard, Johmon, and HibunAE CopyGuard, that adhere 100% to the RoHS Directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances so that we can offer environmentally friendly products.
