Pioneering greener manufacturing through digital transformation
Producing pneumatic control components, automotive components, and precision machine parts, Matsumoto Precision is a trailblazer in planet-friendly manufacturing. Committed to its vision of running “The Sustainable Factory,” the company runs its operations using energy from 100% renewable sources while generating 20% of its electricity on-site using solar power.
A recent deployment of SAP S/4HANA enabled the company to measure cost and profitability for individual products. However, Matsumoto Precision also wanted to calculate carbon emissions on a per-product basis to better understand the environmental impacts of its products and provide partners and customers with reliable sustainability information. To this end, the company decided to implement a solution that would help it calculate carbon footprints for individual products.

Supporting decarbonization across the value chain
Matsumoto Precision looked for a solution that would help it calculate carbon emissions at every stage of the value chain for each product—from raw materials and production to transportation and delivery of orders. It was also important to find a solution that integrates with the company’s existing ERP. This would enable Matsumoto Precision to incorporate the carbon footprint information into key business processes ranging from procurement to logistics.
The company chose SAP Sustainability Footprint Management, which integrates tightly with SAP S/4HANA. The carbon management solution calculates carbon emissions based on the individual manufacturing performance information already available in SAP S/4HANA, providing analysis and visualizations of the carbon footprint for each product.

Making greener business decisions based on reliable sustainability data
With SAP Sustainability Footprint Management in place, employees at Matsumoto Precision now have access to reliable sustainability data to support decision-making about specific products. This is helping the company limit environmental impacts across the business, pioneering the use of carbon management to help shape a greener future.
As well as using individual carbon footprint information internally, Matsumoto Precision will also share it on a product-by-product basis with customers. Providing this emissions data delivers significant value, enabling customers to make informed decisions and meet their own sustainability goals. What’s more, by providing leadership in emissions reduction, Matsumoto Precision is fulfilling its mission of being a company that is recognized by society as a force for good in a greener world.
