Case Study: Fujitsu creates a TNFD-ready biodiversity baseline with NatureMetrics

Fujitsu detects 2,352 species on corporate campuses with NatureMetrics

Fujitsu, a global Japanese technology company, sought to establish a meaningful biodiversity baseline for its corporate campuses to meet its commitments and disclosure frameworks like TNFD. The challenge was that conventional ecological surveys were impractical for their global estate; they needed a method that non-specialists could use to get comparable, report-ready data. They partnered with vendor NatureMetrics to address this using environmental DNA (eDNA) services.

NatureMetrics implemented a low-footprint eDNA program where Fujitsu's own sustainability staff collected soil and surface swab samples. The analysis detected over 2,350 unique species, including important markers of healthy grassland and UK Red List vertebrates. This provided Fujitsu with a defensible, TNFD-ready baseline and a scalable model for global rollout. As a result of the pilot's success, Fujitsu is expanding its partnership with NatureMetrics into three further countries.
