Here, we propose and support the implementation of a wide range of solutions―driven by business contribution and a UX-first approach―tailored to the characteristics and challenges of each business unit and group company within Hitachi, Ltd. As the face of the Corporate IT Digital Division, we stand on the front line and work in the position closest to users, which is why we are called “Account SE.”
By continuously monitoring and proactively leveraging the latest IT technologies, we enhance the agility, efficiency, and robustness of our IT infrastructure while contributing to corporate transformation and global business expansion. Under the management plan “Inspire 2027,” we have identified four priority initiatives and are driving efforts that support Hitachi Group businesses. We are also exploring ways to apply notable emerging IT technologies―such as generative AI―to business operations while carefully considering associated risks.
By consolidating business data across the entire company and leveraging AI, we enable data-driven management that supports real-time decision-making. We provide performance forecasting solutions and dashboards that support management decision-making for BUs and group companies.
We promote cloud migration, standardization, and rationalization of IT assets, and centralize operations to achieve carbon neutrality, an appropriate IT cost ratio, faster service delivery, and even greater robustness.
By fully leveraging the latest technologies, including generative AI, we maximize employee productivity and empowerment. By removing language barriers through technology, we drive the transformation of global ways of working.
To enable faster decision-making and achieve advanced expertise and efficiency, we consolidate IT-related authority and resources―currently distributed across businesses and departments―under the CIO, and further strengthen collaboration and alignment across global IT functions.
While the use of generative AI has the potential to dramatically change business operations, it also carries the risk of information leakage and other security breaches. For this reason, Hitachi is working to ensure that everyone understands the specifications of generative AI and uses it only after going through the application and approval procedures under internal regulations. In addition, we will contribute to improving the quality and productivity of internal operations through the use of generative AI by participating in CoE activities that bring together generative AI experts and business divisions to promote the use of generative AI.
