Year in Review
A society where the use of digital technology makes it possible to choose services that meet the needs of each individual and to achieve a variety of happiness
The progress of digital technology has made it possible to respond to various situations and requests at a low cost, and to provide services and experiences tailored to each individual. We will promote the use of digital technology in cooperation with the entire society, and aim for a society in which no one is left behind and various happiness can be realized.
The digitalisation of society as a whole brings great convenience to people's lives, greatly reduces work and office work, and creates opportunities for new industries and businesses to be born. On the other hand, the prerequisite for the digitalisation of society is the safe and secure of each citizen. We will promote a "people-friendly digitalisation" in which each citizen can enjoy the benefits of digital technology with peace of mind.

Digital Agency Focus Areas and Project Composition
Promoting projects based on the three focus areas in Digital Agency
Three focus areas for Digital Agency were defined in fiscal 2022 as information necessary for business promotion and decision-making.
In Digital Agency, all projects are linked to one of these areas and are integrated into the decision making process for business operations.
Specifically, the results of each project are linked to important indicators in the three focus areas, and are used for human resource management and cost management in accordance with the risk status of the project.
In this way, we are promoting projects that realize the optimal allocation of valuable human resources while keeping in mind the indicators to be achieved in our focus areas.
