Case Study: Shimizu Corporation achieves rapid reporting and unified data access with Denodo Technologies

Shimizu Corporation - Customer Case Study

Shimizu Corporation, a leading Japanese construction firm founded in 1804, faced growing operational pressures: an aging workforce, rising material costs, new overtime regulations and fragmented, siloed data that blocked cross‑department collaboration and digital transformation. These challenges threatened efficiency, compliance and the company’s goal to modernize operations with integrated digital services.

To solve this, Shimizu implemented the Denodo Platform to virtualize and centralize data access, enforce governance via a data catalog, and make IoT and unstructured sources usable without moving data. The outcome: faster, governed data sharing across teams, reports that now take less than a day instead of 1–2 weeks, significant cost savings from in‑house reporting, and support for low‑code development—creating a scalable foundation for ongoing digital transformation.
