Activities to Conserve Water Resources in the Upstream Portion of the Supply Chain
Our Approach
We have also situated the conservation of water resources as a priority issue which we need to ask our suppliers to address, as well as the reduction of CO2 emissions.
We have participated in the CDP Supply Chain program since FY2018, in parallel with the above-mentioned activities. Based on our international environmental research activities, we are taking a more in-depth look at the activities of our primary suppliers to reduce CO2 emissions and conserve water resources, and considering the issues and our policies.
We expect that having the entire supply chain work toward reducing emissions can produce even greater reduction effects (synergies), while also expanding the network of these activities through the supply chain to cover an even wider area spreading beyond national boundaries. Through efforts such as these, the Fujitsu Group hopes to help create a sustainable water environment.
FY2023 Performance
| Targets Under the Fujitsu Group Environmental Action Plan (Stage Ⅺ) | FY2023 result |
|---|---|
| Conservation of Water Resources: Request that Primary Suppliers Engage in Activities to Conserve Water | Requested that 612 of the Fujitsu Group's primary suppliers engage in activities to conserve water |
Conservation of Water Resources: Requesting that Primary Suppliers Work to Conserve Water Resources as a Key Theme They Should Address
Against the backdrop of worsening water resource problems and growing international concern, in addition to continuing our work to reduce CO2 emissions as pursued under the Fujitsu Group Environmental Action Plan (Stage VIII) from FY2016 to FY2018, we situated the conservation of water resources as a priority issue which we need to ask our suppliers to address, starting in FY2019. We reviewed the questions we posed on our environmental survey forms so that we would be able to understand the status of our suppliers' activities and their actual circumstances, and identified the challenges we will face in expanding our activities in the future.
Status of water risk assessments conducted by suppliers
Since many companies are globally connected through their supply chains, water conservation is an issue that no company can afford to ignore. The first step in conserving water resources is to have an accurate understanding of inherent water risks. An environmental survey conducted by Fujitsu in FY2023 found that 28.4% of suppliers had conducted water risk assessments. As the case in FY2022, this indicates that suppliers have an ongoing awareness of water risk as an issue that needs to be addressed.
In order to have suppliers think about conservation of water resources as a more familiar issue, we are offering the "Water Risk Assessment for Companies" document, which compiles materials on topics such as the importance of risk assessments, and introduces publicly available assessment tools. In the future, we will request that even more suppliers conduct water risk assessments and request that they work to conserve water resources.
