Strengthening proposal capabilities, technical expertise and responsiveness for the era of liberalization

「We aim to further promote our integrated contracting and construction structure by leveraging the expertise and technologies we have developed.」

「In addition to strong construction activity based on capital investment plans at major customers such as 東京ガスネットワーク株式会社 and 北海道ガス株式会社, many large-scale projects associated with the capital investment plan of SHIZUOKA GAS CO.,LTD. were completed. In response to robust construction demand, the company strengthened an agile construction management framework through close coordination among divisions.」

「As a result of integrating the sales and construction divisions and strengthening information sharing, orders for projects such as multi-family residential buildings increased, while plumbing and sanitary equipment construction and water-heating and heating construction performed strongly.」

「Under the integrated organization combining the sales and construction divisions implemented effective 1 April 2022, the company will work to secure construction volumes by sharing information and strengthening coordination, while improving quality by establishing a cross-functional construction framework.」

「The pipeline safety-related business and equipment safety-related business within the gas pipeline maintenance and management business were transferred to 東京ガスパイプネットワーク株式会社 through an absorption-type company split, effective 1 April 2020.」

「The company decided to transfer the pipeline safety-related business and equipment safety-related business within its gas pipeline maintenance and management business to 東京ガスパイプネットワーク株式会社 through a company split by absorption, and entered into an absorption-type company split agreement with 東京ガスパイプネットワーク株式会社 on 24 January 2020.」

「To this end, in April this year, the company reorganized its corporate structure to move from the previous function-based organization toward a multifunctional structure centered on customers and capable of addressing a broad range of needs. Under the new structure, it will expand its customer base by strengthening mutual coordination and establishing a one-stop service framework, while creating new businesses in adjacent areas, including IoT services, and recurring-revenue businesses.」

「In light of changes in the business environment, including the full liberalization of gas retail sales, the company determined that stable growth would be achieved by transferring its gas pipeline maintenance and management business, which had limited direct involvement with gas construction, to realize Tokyo Gas's objective of an efficient, low-cost, resilient, competitive and growth-oriented pipeline business structure; securing a sound construction framework as a construction company; achieving appropriate costs; further improving safety, quality and customer satisfaction; and expanding demand through orders from customers. Equipment safety-related business: 1 April 2019. Pipeline safety-related business and emergency safety-related business: 1 October 2019.」

「Recognizing the need not only to maintain and improve proposal capabilities, technical expertise and responsiveness in existing business areas, but also to acquire proposal capabilities and technical expertise in adjacent business areas, integrate them with the existing business areas and broaden the scope of the company's capabilities, the company substantially reorganized its corporate structure in April 2017, together with strengthening its internal audit division.」

「Expand the scope of the company's capabilities by maintaining and improving proposal capabilities, technical expertise and responsiveness in existing business areas, while acquiring proposal capabilities and technical expertise in adjacent business areas and integrating them with the existing business areas.」
