Using an Integrated Management System

As business becomes ever more globalized, it is necessary to identify constant risks and improve business processes in order to keep fulfilling our social responsibilities which form the basis of our corporate philosophy. Aiming to increase the quality of all our operations, Fujifilm and its Group companies have standardized business processes and utilized an IMS(*1) to continuously make improvements while using the PDCA cycle. With the IMS, we can improve the quality of operations, reduce negative impacts on the environment, and implement effective measures through removing inefficiency that would arise under multiple management systems, and evaluating our actions from the standpoint of stakeholders.

Since 2004, Fujifilm and Group companies have been joining the IMS step by step, and as of March 2011, almost all domestic organizations had already joined it. We intend to integrate standards further and to continue promote IMS-related activities focused on business performance.

• *1 Integrated Management System: A management system that unifies multiple management systems used to deal with product quality, the environment, occupational health and safety, information security, and other issues.
