SenseWay Inc. announced that Marubeni Information Systems Co., Ltd., a member of the Marubeni I-DIGIO Group's Digital Solutions Segment, will begin handling SenseWay's on-site DX solutions, 'Worker Connect' and 'Workplace Connect.'
Background In recent years, frontline worksites in industries such as construction, manufacturing, and logistics have faced severe labor shortages, while the risk of occupational accidents like heatstroke and falls remains high. To balance safety and productivity, the importance of 'on-site DX'—which involves real-time monitoring of worker conditions and site environments for data-driven management and improvement—is rapidly growing. Furthermore, all workplaces, including offices, warehouses, and factories, are required to accurately monitor environmental information such as temperature, humidity, and CO₂ levels to maintain a comfortable and healthy working environment.
SenseWay has been supporting corporate on-site DX through solutions that integrate its proprietary technology with high-performance sensors, communication, and cloud services. However, to meet the growing demand for digitalization at worksites, strengthening its system to rapidly deploy systems to customer locations nationwide and provide stable, ongoing operational support had become an urgent priority.
Consequently, SenseWay decided to partner with the Marubeni I-DIGIO Group, which possesses a powerful equipment procurement network, mobile and other communication service capabilities, and a nationwide on-site implementation and operational support system. By combining SenseWay's high-quality IoT solutions with the Marubeni I-DIGIO Group's robust support network, the companies believe they can swiftly and reliably deliver 'on-site DX' to any worksite across the country, contributing to customer safety and productivity.
Synergy from the Partnership By combining SenseWay's integrated sensor, communication, and cloud solutions with the Marubeni I-DIGIO Group's equipment procurement network, communication service capabilities (including mobile), and nationwide implementation and support structure, the partnership will expand the system for introducing and deploying digital transformation (DX) on a national scale for various worksites, including construction, manufacturing, logistics, plants, warehouses, and offices.
Solution Overview Worker Connect A solution that supports worker safety management by providing real-time tracking of location and vital information for workers in industries like construction, manufacturing, and logistics. It enables heatstroke prevention measures, fall detection, and confirmation of emergency alerts from workers.
Workplace Connect A solution that visualizes information about the working environment in warehouses, factories, and offices, such as temperature, humidity, WBGT, and CO2 concentration. By visualizing both indoor and outdoor working conditions, it contributes to heatstroke prevention and the maintenance of a healthy workplace environment.
