sales management. The data from the individual systems could not be integrated, and it took a
considerable amount of time to grasp the total inventory situation.
With glovia.com, however, the company is now able to integrate information from each area
and quickly adjust production to reflect conditions in the fast-changing mobile phone market,
advancing the optimization of its production flow enterprise-wide. For example, the company can
manage sourcing of key product components from Japan, manufacture the units in Beijing,
package them to specific customer specifications in the Czech Republic, and then ship the finished
handsets to other markets in Europe. That’s global integration.
The National Diet Library: Online Access to Japan’s Cultural Heritage
Japan’s National Diet Library collects materials published in Japan and preserves this cultural
heritage for the benefit of the legislative, executive and judicial branches of government as well as
the people of Japan. To deal with an ever-expanding collection and provide a full range of library
services, in October 2002 the library opened a new facility with a capacity of roughly six million
volumes in Kansai Science City in Kyoto Prefecture. The new facility includes a digital library
system designed by Fujitsu that features an online archive of historic documents dating from the
Meiji Era (1868 – 1912)and a navigation service with links to various online databases. The system
also includes functionality to archive web-based information for the benefit of future generations.
In addition to designing this massive system, we continue to provide ongoing support. For people
anywhere in Japan or around the world, a visit to the new digital library is only a few clicks away.
That's IT with room to grow.
