Engagement with Suppliers

Basic Approach

For the development of a sustainable society, businesses are required to address social issues such as human rights, labor, safety and health, global environmental conservation, information security, and disaster response. It is crucial that these efforts are not undertaken by individual companies alone but are carried out in collaboration with suppliers.
In this context, the COMSYS Group is promoting various supply chain initiatives to remain a company that continues to be chosen by customers through "Engineering that leads the Future," as stated in our Management Philosophy, and to contribute to the realization of the society envisioned by the SDGs through its business activities.

Management System

The COMSYS Group established the COMSYS Group Guidelines for Supply Chain Sustainability in accordance with its Basic Procurement Policy.
The guidelines define the matters that should be voluntarily addressed by the companies in our supply chains in terms of seven major subjects including human rights and labor, safety and health and the environment.
These guidelines apply to the suppliers that we have direct transactions with. We also ask that the suppliers communicate these guidelines to the group of suppliers upstream in their supply chains and to encourage these upstream suppliers to follow the guidelines.
To achieve the guidelines, we have built a management system to facilitate continuous improvement through the plan, do, check and act (PDCA) cycle in terms of compliance with policies, implementation systems, corrective actions and stakeholder engagement.
To check that guidelines are complied with, we randomly select respondents to conduct questionnaire surveys and audits. Whenever an act or event that fails to comply with the guidelines is identified, we demand improvement actions. Through these efforts, we strive to enhance the added value of our supply chain as a whole.

Supplier Monitoring

COMSYS Group has conducted a Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ)* targeting key business partners since FY2025, with the aim of understanding the status of various initiatives across the entire supply chain and facilitating dialogue toward future improvements.
This questionnaire confirms the status of initiatives based on the "COMSYS Group Supply Chain Sustainability Promotion Guidelines," and the results are utilized as reference information for understanding the overall status of the supply chain and conducting risk analysis, as well as for informing future measures and management decisions.

  • SAQ (Self-Assessment Questionnaire)
  • Implementation Overview

    This SAQ is administered to our key business partners.
    (Key business partners: business partners selected based on the annual number of transactions, transaction amounts, and other relevant factors)

Item FY2023 FY2024 FY2025
Number of companies to which SAQ was distributed 104
Number of companies that responded to SAQ 28
SAQ response rate 27%
  • Survey Results

    This questionnaire confirms the status of initiatives related to human rights, safety and health, environment, information security, and other areas, in accordance with the "COMSYS Group Supply Chain Sustainability Promotion Guidelines."

    Responses to each question were comprehensively aggregated based on the survey results and organized as an overall score. Please note that these results are based on self-reporting by each business partner.

Overall Score Range FY2023 FY2024 FY2025
High level (e.g., 80 points or higher) 100%
Intermidiate standard (e.g., 60–79 points) 0%
Room of improvement (e.g., 59 points or lower) 0%
Total 100%

This SAQ is designed to understand the current status of our suppliers and does not have any direct impact on transaction terms or supplier evaluations.

Partnership Building Declaration

The COMSYS Group supports the aims of the Council on Promoting Partnership Building, which includes the chairman of the Japan Business Federation (Keidanren) and the chairman of the Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry as members, and is announcing Declaration of Partnership Building at each of its Group companies.
We seek to build new partnerships in cooperation with our business partners in our supply chains and business operators contributing to our creation of value and through our efforts to coexist and prosper together with society.

Multiple Stakeholders Policy

To sustainably enhance its corporate value, the COMSYS Group values the cocreation of value with many different stakeholders such as customers, shareholders, investors, employees, business partners and local communities and it appropriately collaborates with many stakeholders.
