GBA enterprises speed up ASEAN expansion, amid trade tensions, with 73 percent fast-tracking plans

HONG KONG, January 14, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Enterprises across the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) are accelerating their expansion into ASEAN amid escalating global uncertainties and intensifying tariff pressures. A new joint study, “Hong Kong Empowers GBA Enterprises for ASEAN Growth Amid Global Trade Challenges”, released today by UOB Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), reveals GBA companies are now scaling their ASEAN strategies with greater urgency to boost growth and strengthen supply chain resilience.ASEAN growth set to accelerate furtherReflecting this renewed urgency, the study finds that 73 percent of GBA respondents intend to accelerate their business development in ASEAN, reinforcing the region’s importance as a long-standing and increasingly urgent growth engine amid global trade frictions.ASEAN economies continue to gain prominence, with Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia emerging as the top destinations for GBA enterprises over the next three years. To support expansion plans, companies expect to allocate an average of 30 percent additional resources to their ASEAN expansion plans. Vietnam is the top priority (47 percent increase in resources), followed by Indonesia (37 percent) and Thailand/Malaysia (32 percent each).From a strategic perspective, the primary focus is on driving sales growth – especially in Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia – while expanding production and sourcing bases, with Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia the top choices.Even in Singapore, where GBA enterprises already have the largest footprint, respondents intend to commit an average of 23 percent in extra resources to accelerate their business development in the country, especially in areas, such as financing and establishing regional offices.The study also reports a 25 percentage point year-on-year increase in the number of GBA businesses seeking to expand or maintain sales operations within the ASEAN bloc, with 98 percent of surveyed enterprises continuing to target these dynamic sales markets. This acceleration underscores the region’s heightened urgency to navigate intensifying geopolitical and tariff pressures.Notably, 91 percent of respondents intend to expand or maintain their ASEAN-based production and sourcing hubs — a seven percentage point increase compared to 2024, highlighting stronger intent to diversify supply chains and mitigate external risks.Heightened challenges in ASEAN expansionWhile the momentum is clear, the study also highlights significant hurdles GBA enterprises face, as they expand into ASEAN. The most cited challenge is finding suitable local partners (47 percent), a figure that has risen by 24 percentage points since 2024 and has climbed steadily over the past three years. Cultural and language barriers (46 percent) and difficulties in sourcing specialist talent (40 percent) are also on the rise, up 23 and 15 percentage points, respectively. These challenges underscore the need for trusted advisors and deeper cross-border support.Growing commitment to ESGThe study reveals continued progress among GBA companies in pursuing sustainability goals. Of the participating enterprises, 83 percent currently have green initiatives underway, slightly up from 81 percent in 2024 and marking a three-year high.Furthermore, 96 percent of respondents plan to increase or maintain their ESG funding over the next two years, with 66 percent intending to boost their ESG investment – a 26 percentage point jump from 40 percent in 2024, recording a three-year high. For the next two years, the average intended level of ESG funding on the part of GBA enterprises is now HK$874,771, nearly double the HK$462,535 recorded in 2024.Adaline Zheng, CEO of UOB Hong Kong, said, “For GBA enterprises, ASEAN is not just the next stop – it is the growth frontier. Hong Kong amplifies that momentum, and UOB has the expertise to connect it. With our extensive ASEAN network, deep local insights and sustainability leadership, we help businesses in Hong Kong scale faster, strengthen their resilience and capture opportunities with commitment. We help businesses win the next chapter of regional growth.”Hong Kong as the gateway for ASEAN expansion and ESG leadershipThe survey reaffirms Hong Kong’s role as a critical platform for GBA enterprises seeking to accelerate ASEAN expansion and strengthen ESG programmes. Hong Kong’s role as a superconnector is widely recognised and highly appreciated, earning a score of 7.9 out of 10 for connectivity with both GBA cities and the ASEAN bloc.Wing Chu, Deputy Director of HKTDC Research, said, “With the shifting global supply chain landscape and tariff uncertainties, many GBA enterprises are accelerating their ASEAN engagement not merely as a means of risk diversification, but to capture new growth opportunities in fast-evolving markets. Hong Kong’s unique positioning as a superconnector allows businesses to leverage the city’s comprehensive trade, financial and professional services platform to navigate this transformation efficiently, while strengthening their ESG commitments. The HKTDC will continue to proactively support GBA enterprises in leveraging Hong Kong's professional services to capitalise on opportunities in the ASEAN markets.”Among the 73 percent of GBA enterprises intending to accelerate their ASEAN development, two-thirds have leveraged Hong Kong’s platform to advance their expansion.On the ESG front, Hong Kong offers diversified, forward-looking, sustainable development solutions necessary for green and sustainable business development, with its green services rated at 8.8 out of 10 by surveyed enterprises.In addition, more than 90 percent respondents are considering or already increasing their uptake of Hong Kong’s sustainable development services over the next two years. The most in-demand services include: (1) green financial products and services; (2) green financing services; (3) ESG reporting, due diligence, ESG rating; and (4) green asset valuation.The report, based on insights from more than 600 businesses across Hong Kong and five key mainland GBA cities (Dongguan, Foshan, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Zhongshan), examines how businesses are adjusting strategies amid global challenges, and how Hong Kong continues to play a pivotal role as a superconnector, empowering GBA enterprises to diversify supply chains within ASEAN and advance their ESG commitments.

GA-ASI and USN Test Expanded Sonobuoy Dispensing System For MQ-9B SeaGuardian(R)

SAN DIEGO, Jan 14, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) and the U.S. Navy continue to expand the Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) capability of the MQ-9B SeaGuardian® Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS). Flight test was performed on December 17 and featured Sonobuoy Dispensing System (SDS) pods, more than previously tested, doubling the number of sonobuoys available."Expanding sonobuoy capacity, including Multi-static Active Coherent (MAC) technology for SeaGuardian, has been an integral part of our advanced ASW strategy to broaden and enhance search areas," said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. "The wider maritime coverage our MQ-9B's ASW capability provides is extremely valuable to our customers."Sonobuoys are naval sensors that drop from an aircraft into the ocean and help detect submarines. The SeaGuardian deployed AN/SSQ-36 Bathythermal, AN/SSQ-53G Directional Frequency Analysis and Recording (DIFAR) (passive), and AN/SSQ-62F Directional Command Activated Sonobuoy System (DICASS) (active) buoys. This was the first time Multi-static Active Coherent (MAC) buoys have been dispensed from an uncrewed aircraft. The MAC buoys are better at detecting submarines over large areas and require fewer buoys compared to using DIFAR and DICASS.Sponsored by the U.S. Navy, the flight tests were specifically aimed at certifying the SDS. This flight testing supports the Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet's Operational Evaluation deployment to SEVENTH Fleet and enjoyed additional support and governmental supervision from the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) AIRWorks.Upon completion of the testing and data review, the U.S. Navy is expected to give GA-ASI deployment flight clearance for ASW operations using MQ-9B SeaGuardian in January 2026.SeaGuardian has also been used by the U.S. Navy in various recent exercises, including Northern Edge, Integrated Battle Problem, RIMPAC, and Group Sail.About GA-ASIGeneral Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc., is the world's foremost builder of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). Logging more than 9 million flight hours, the Predator® line of UAS has flown for over 30 years and includes MQ-9A Reaper®, MQ-1C Gray Eagle®, MQ-20 Avenger®, and MQ-9B SkyGuardian®/SeaGuardian®.

DPC Dash – Domino’s Pizza China Defies Headwinds in 2025 as Strong Q4 Performance Cements Market Leadership

HONG KONG, Jan 14, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China's restaurant industry grew 3.3% to RMB 5.22 trillion in revenue through November 2025, government data showed, even as competition intensified beyond product and service into battles over supply chains, digitalization and capital strength.Chain expansion has emerged as the key differentiator, with China's restaurant chain penetration rate rising steadily in recent years and expected to reach 25% in 2025, according to Meituan platform data. Industry reports show that the pizza category stands out, as China’s pizza market reached RMB 48 billion in 2024 and surpassed RMB 50 billion in 2025. Against this backdrop, DPC Dash-Domino's Pizza China (1405.HK) disclosed its Q4 2025 business results this month, reinforcing its position as the market leader.Store Expansion Achieves Quality and Scale GrowthDPC Dash is the exclusive master franchisee for Domino's Pizza in the Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong SAR, and Macau SAR. The company's 2025 store deployment closely aligned with industry trends, achieving breakthroughs in scale and efficiency. As of December 31, 2025, total store count exceeded 1,315 locations, representing 307 net new stores year-over-year, with entry into 21 new cities and expanding coverage to 60 cities. On January 1, 2026, the company accelerated expansion further, with 62 new stores opening across 46 cities.This efficient expansion benefits from mature store expansion models and precise market judgment. In 2025, when overall industry store counts fluctuated due to competition, DPC Dash’s efficient, high-quality expansion results proved particularly impressive. New store performance further validates brand strength—the first store in Dalian generated sales close to RMB 700,000 on its grand opening day during the 2026 New Year holiday, setting a new record in Domino’s global system. As of Q3 2025, DPC Dash holds 49 of the top 50 spots in first-30-day sales rankings among Domino's global network. By store count, the Chinese Mainland market has become Domino's third-largest international market, with regional penetration capabilities continuing to lead.Operating Resilience Emerges, User Ecosystem Solidifies Growth FoundationDue to structural market factors, category shifts and changing consumer trends, the restaurant industry's average order size remained under pressure in 2025, with consumers increasingly favoring affordable, quality dining options. Amid these trend shifts, DPC Dash achieved steady growth against such headwinds, demonstrating strong operational resilience.In Q4 2025, the company's tier-one city same-store sales growth (SSSG) maintained positive momentum. Excluding impacts from new market stores opened after December 2022, group-level SSSG also remained positive for both H2 2025 and full-year 2025. Even despite high prior-period comparisons and competitive market pressures, core market risk resilience remained outstanding. Continued user community expansion supported performance growth. As of December 31, 2025, total membership reached 35.6 million, up 45.3% from 24.5 million at year-end 2024. New users completing first orders through proprietary and third-party channels in the past 12 months continued growing, exceeding 15.4 million.Strong operating metrics and user base earned DPC Dash the "Most Valuable Consumer Company Award" and "Best IR Team Award" from Zhitong Finance's listed company ranking, further solidifying capital market recognition of its operating quality and growth logic.Product & Marketing Dual-Engine Drive, Digitalization Enables Efficiency UpgradesAligning with the pizza category’s "localized flavor" trends, DPC Dash employs product innovation and scenario marketing as twin engines, continuously strengthening user stickiness. In 2025, pizza sector innovation focused on flavor fusion. Building on this foundation, DPC Dash further expanded global flavor combinations, launching Sicilian-Inspired Beef & Bamboo Shoot Pizza and Madrid-Inspired Beef and Shrimp Pizza in Q4, satisfying diverse consumer taste preferences. The 2025 hit product Volcano Crust pizza series won the "Phenomenal Product Impact Award” as part of the Seven-Star Convention Alliance’s inaugural food and beverage consumer influence rankings for its phenomenal product innovation. While innovating, the company continues leading the industry in food safety, health advocacy and sustainable development, earning the Seven-Star Awards for the fifth year.Simultaneously, the company upgraded two popular pizzas with additional toppings at the same price, highlighting value advantages amid declining industry order sizes. On the marketing front, the company launched Halloween-themed snacks tied to seasonal scenarios, brought back the classic "Mega Week" promotion to lower consumption barriers, and partnered with Sanrio's popular character Kuromi for limited-edition merchandise, precisely targeting diverse consumer groups.Behind these initiatives lies strong digital capability support. DPC Dash leveraged its mature online operating systems and data-driven strategies to win the "Top 20 Digitalized Enterprise" from the China Digital Innovation Expo. Its digital practices highly align with industry trends of online channels becoming important growth drivers, providing broad space for business expansion.Comprehensive ESG Efforts Achieve Commercial and Social Value SynergyAs the industry accelerates "food industry + digital intelligence + dining + leisure" integration, DPC Dash continues deepening ESG initiatives, achieving synergistic growth of commercial and social value. In 2025, DPC Dash received multiple awards including the 2025 ESG Outstanding Listed Company Award at International Green Zero-Carbon Festival, and the 2025 Most Socially Responsible Listed Company Award from National Business Daily. These honors not only recognize sustainable operations but also align with consumer expectations for brand social responsibility, further strengthening brand reputation. In talent management, DPC Dash earned Mercer's "Best Employer" honor for the fourth time and first-time "Star Employer" recognition.Looking Forward: Deepening 4D Strategy, Leading High-Quality DevelopmentIn 2026, China's restaurant industry will transition comprehensively from scale expansion toward quality and efficiency improvement. After breaking through the RMB 50 billion market scale, pizza category competition will focus more intensely on product innovation, digital efficiency and refined operations. The Western fast-food segment will continue to see dual battles over localization and scale.DPC Dash plans to continue deepening its 4D Strategy of Development, Delicious Pizza at Value, Delivery, and Digital, continuously mining consumption potential across market tiers while optimizing store network layout. The company will also iterate on product portfolios, upgrade digitalization and strengthen supply chain resilience to further consolidate core competitiveness. With proven operating systems, strong brand momentum and multi-dimensional industry recognition, DPC Dash is positioned to continue leading China's pizza market in the new year, providing a replicable model for Western fast food and the broader restaurant industry's high-quality development.

达势股份(01405.HK)-达美乐中国2025年逆势持稳:第四季度业务进展亮眼,多维度实力夯实市场标杆

香港, 2026年1月14日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 2025年中国餐饮行业呈现"稳中有压"的结构性特征。国家统计局2025年12月中旬数据显示,2025年1-11月全国餐饮收入累计达52245亿元,同比增长3.3%。在整体增长放缓的背景下,行业竞争继续升温,从单一的产品或服务竞争升级为供应链、数字化与资本实力的综合较量。在此环境下,连锁化被视为行业破局的关键。美团数据显示,中国餐饮连锁化率从2019年的19%稳步上升至2024年的23%,连锁经营趋势持续深化。细分赛道中,比萨品类表现相对突出。红餐大数据显示,2024年中国比萨市场规模达480亿元,2025年突破500亿元,消费需求持续升级。在这样的行业背景下,达势股份-达美乐中国(1405.HK,下称"达美乐中国")近期披露的2025年第四季度业务概况,展现出其在竞争加剧环境中的突围能力,持续夯实其在比萨赛道的标杆地位。门店扩张"量质齐升",契合连锁化浪潮作为达美乐比萨在中国大陆、中国香港特别行政区和中国澳门特别行政区的独家总特许经营商,达美乐中国2025年的门店布局深度贴合行业连锁化趋势,实现了规模与效率的双重提升。截至2025年12月31日,公司门店总数突破1,315家,较上年净新增307家,全年新进入21个城市,覆盖范围从年初的39城拓展至60城。2026年元旦当日,公司再提速扩张,在46个城市新开62家门店,延续强劲增长势头。高效扩张的背后,是成熟的门店扩张模型与精准的市场判断。在2025年比萨行业整体门店数量波动下滑的背景下,达美乐中国的高效高质的扩张成果尤为亮眼。新开门店的爆发力进一步印证了品牌硬实力。大连首店于2026年元旦假期开业,首日销售额近70万元,再次创品牌全球首日销售新记录。与此同时,截至2025年第三季度,达美乐中国在达美乐全球超2.17万家门店中,包揽门店首30日销售额排行榜前50名中的49席。按门店数量计算,中国大陆已成为达美乐全球第三大国际市场,区域渗透能力持续领跑。经营韧性凸显,用户生态支撑稳健增长受市场结构变化、消费趋势调整等因素影响,2025年餐饮行业客单价继续承压,消费者偏好进一步向平价优质餐饮集中。在这样的趋势变化中, 达美乐中国仍实现稳健增长,展现出强劲的经营韧性。2025年第四季度,公司一线城市同店销售额(SSSG)持续保持正增长;剔除2022年12月后新市场门店影响,集团层面同店销售额在2025年下半年及全年均维持正增长。即便面对前期高基数与激烈的市场竞争,核心市场经营韧性依然突出。用户生态的持续扩容为业绩增长提供重要支撑,截至2025年12月31日,公司会员计划"达人荟"总数达3,560万人,较2024年底的2,450万人同比增长45.3%,过去12个月内通过自有及第三方渠道完成首单的新用户超1,540万人,用户结构持续优化。稳健的经营表现也获得资本市场认可。达美乐中国在智通财经上市公司评选中斩获"最具价值大消费公司奖"及"最佳IR团队奖"。资本市场的认可,进一步强化了市场对其经营质量与增长逻辑的信心。产品+营销双轮驱动,数字化赋能效率升级贴合比萨品类"风味本土化"趋势,达美乐中国以产品创新与场景营销双轮并行,持续增强用户黏性。2025年,比萨赛道创新聚焦风味融合,达美乐中国在此基础上拓展全球风味组合,第四季度推出西西里风情尊牛多多笋鲜比萨以及马德里风情牛腩大虾比萨,满足消费者多元口味需求。2025年爆款产品"火山比萨" 斩获首届"七星食饮消费影响力年度案例"榜单中的"年度现象级爆品影响力奖"。在产品创新之外,公司持续推动食品安全、健康倡导及可持续发展,第五年获得中国食品健康七星奖。同时,公司对经典产品黑松露风味菌菇鸡肉比萨、香甜双虾菠萝比萨进行"加量不加价"升级,在客单价下行的行业环境中突出高性价比优势。营销层面,公司紧扣节日场景推出万圣节主题零食与套餐,经典"超级周买一送一"活动回归降低消费门槛,与三丽鸥人气角色酷洛米的联名限定周边,进一步覆盖多元消费群体。这一系列动作背后,是企业数字化能力的强力支撑。达美乐中国凭借成熟的线上运营体系与数据驱动策略,斩获CDI华鹰数字化指数"2025CDI数字化营销创新奖"及"2025CDI数字化企业TOP20"。其数字化实践与行业线上渠道成为重要增长极的趋势高度契合,为业务拓展提供广阔空间。ESG全面发力,实现商业与社会价值协同随着行业加速推进"食品工业+数智+餐饮+休闲"融合,达美乐中国在ESG领域持续深耕,实现商业价值与社会价值的协同增长。2025年,达美乐中国获得南方都市报ESG可持续创新生态大会"年度环境友好先锋企业",每日经济新闻 2025上市公司口碑榜"上市公司最具社会责任奖"等多项大奖。这些荣誉不仅是对其可持续运营的认可,也契合了消费者对品牌社会责任感的期待,进一步提升品牌长期价值。在人才管理方面,达美乐中国第四次获得美世"最佳雇主"荣誉,并首次获得美世中国"雇主之星"。展望未来:深化4D战略,领跑高质量发展展望2026年,中国餐饮行业有望从规模扩张全面转向质量效益提升。比萨品类在突破500亿市场规模后,竞争将更聚焦于产品创新、数字化效率与精细化运营,西式快餐赛道的"本土化"与"规模化"竞争亦将持续深化。在此背景下,达美乐中国计划进一步深化"Development(高质量的门店开发)、Delicious Pizza at Value(高质价比的美味比萨)、Delivery(高效的外送体验)、Digital(数字化能力)"4D战略。一方面,持续挖掘各级市场的消费潜力,优化门店网络布局;另一方面,通过产品矩阵迭代、数字化系统升级以及供应链韧性强化,进一步巩固核心竞争力。凭借已验证的运营体系、强劲的品牌势能及多维度行业认可,达美乐中国有望在新一年继续领跑中国比萨市场,为西式快餐及更广泛的餐饮行业高质量发展提供可参考的实践样本。 Copyright 2026 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

Fujitsu launches demonstration experiment into green steel value flow utilizing blockchain technology to accelerate decarbonization in the steel Industry

Kawasaki, Japan, Jan 14, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fujitsu today announced that it has commanced a demonstration experiment into the value flow of green steel [1] in the steel industry starting in December 2025. This project was previously selected by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) as part of its FY2025 Industrial Research Project under the theme Survey Project on the Transmission of Green Steel Information Linked to Steel Materials Across Supply Chains in November 2025.This demonstration experiment will leverage Fujitsu's expertise in CO2 emission reduction materials, blockchain technology, and data distribution platforms to ensure that data can be distributed safely and that the environmental value of green steel and transaction confidentiality can be secured. The experiment will be carried out from December 2025 to February 2026. Through this initiative, Fujitsu seeks to accelerate decarbonization across the manufacturing sector, beginning with the steel industry, and contribute to the establishment of a sustainable supply chain.Through this project, Fujitsu will contribute to environmental initiatives and digital transformation (DX) promotion in the steel industry. Furthermore, based on the knowledge gained from this project, Fujitsu will explore the development of mechanisms for green steel information distribution and the potential for expansion into the steel industry data space from 2026 onwards. Under Uvance, Fujitsu’s business model to solve societal issues, the company will also realize a mechanism that enables the secure and flexible sharing and utilization of reliable environmental value data across national and industry boundaries, thereby advancing corporate competitiveness and the realization of a sustainable society.BackgroundReducing CO2 emissions related to the steel industry is an urgent challenge for society. While industry organizations produce and supply green steel using GX Mass Balance [2] and GX Allocation [3] methods in accordance with established guidelines, there is a challenge in adequately distributing its environmental value throughout the downstream supply chain.Project OverviewThis initiative aims to examine mechanisms for ensuring that environmental value, such as emissions reduction steel certificates issued by steel manufacturers through green steel production, flows through the supply chain from upstream to downstream without being duplicated or compromised. It also seeks to identify challenges in current business practices and operational issues for each business operator when such mechanisms are applied.In this demonstration experiment, Fujitsu will build a data distribution platform environment to ensure traceability of company/industry data and leverage Fujitsu Sustainable Value Accelerator, an offering under Uvance that supports green transformation (GX). With the cooperation of various steel businesses, the experiment will involve distributing third-party certified green steel certificates to verify the uniqueness of environmental value, prevent double-counting, and maintain value when passing through intermediate processors or different distribution channels.[1] Green steel:Steel with significantly reduced CO2 emissions during manufacturing compared to conventional steel (METI Journal ONLINE, Metal Industries Division, April 17, 2025).[2] GX Mass Balance Method:A method that utilizes the "mass balance model" defined in ISO 22095:2020 to pool greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions from additional projects undertaken by a company within its organization, and then allocates these to specific products, supplying them along with reduction certificates (from The Japan Iron and Steel Federation GX Steel Guidelines).[3] GX Allocation Method:An approach based on "allocation" in ISO 14067:2018 and ISO 14044:2006, where GHG total emissions (emission intensity × production volume) are kept constant, and emission reductions are allocated to products (GX steel/non-GX steel) to reflect the relationship between high and low GX value, within the scope of GHG emission reductions (from The Japan Iron and Steel Federation GX Steel Guidelines).Fujitsu’s Commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the United Nations in 2015 represent a set of common goals to be achieved worldwide by 2030.Fujitsu’s purpose — “to make the world more sustainable by building trust in society through innovation” — is a promise to contribute to the vision of a better future empowered by the SDGs.About FujitsuFujitsu’s purpose is to make the world more sustainable by building trust in society through innovation.

Toyota Systems, Fujitsu utilize quantum-inspired technology and AI to streamline on-board computer design and contribute to sustainable development

Nagoya, Tokyo and Kawasaki, Japan, Jan 14, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Toyota Systems Corporation (Toyota Systems) and Fujitsu Limited, in collaboration with Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota), today announced the successful application of quantum-inspired technology and AI to automate one aspect of the automotive parts design process.In a world first for the automotive industry, the technology was applied to automate the placement design for connector pins, metal parts that enable the transmission of electrical signals across circuits and components. The parts are deployed in the car’s electric control unit (ECU), a small onboard computer that controls the vehicle’s systems.The mobility industry faces demand for sustainable product development and the need to address increasingly complex software and hardware designs but is facing a severe shortage of skilled personnel. In the ECU development process at Toyota, the connector pin placement design for a 100-pin terminal array theoretically involves a vast number of combinations (9.3 x 10^157). This led to prolonged design review times and reliance on individual expertise.To address these issues, Toyota Systems and Fujitsu, in collaboration with Toyota, tried to automate the process applying Toyota's design standards and expertise, Toyota Systems' operational and infrastructure knowledge in Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) analysis [1] for the Toyota Group, and Fujitsu's Digital Annealer, a core component of Fujitsu Computing as a Service, and its AI technology.This initiative involved training an AI model with information on connector pin placement patterns and their evaluation scores, previously determined by the knowledge and experiences of skilled engineers. This AI model was then converted into mathematical expressions and processed at high speed by the Digital Annealer to automatically calculate the optimal connector pin placement. As a result, the process was accelerated by more than 20x compared to conventional methods.Both companies began applying this mechanism in actual operations for Toyota's mass-produced ECUs in parallel with conventional methods starting in May 2025.Moving forward, Toyota Systems aims to expand this development to supplier companies, promoting the application of cutting-edge technology and digitalization in Toyota Group's wider manufacturing processes. Fujitsu will contribute to realizing a safe, secure, and comfortable mobility society by supporting the Toyota Group's sustainable development and design. Both companies will work to improve development speed and quality and reduce costs by expanding the application scope of this mechanism.[1] Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) analysis: Engineering method that simulates product design and performance on a computer, allowing for evaluation and verification. Contributes to reduced development time, cost reduction, and quality improvement.About Toyota SystemsToyota Systems is an IT solutions company established in Jan. 2019 by merging 3 different Toyota IT subsidiaries.
