Case Study: Hitachi achieves global network integration and faster collaboration with NTT Global Networks

Hitachi connects 300,000 employees across 30 countries with NTT Global Networks

Hitachi, Ltd. faced the challenge of needing to integrate its decentralized global IT infrastructure to better support its Social Innovation Business strategy. The lack of a unified network across its six regional markets led to compromised security, slow collaboration among its 300,000 employees, and unnecessary costs from conflicting investments. To address this, Hitachi selected NTT Global Networks and its Global Network Services to build a consolidated solution.

NTT implemented a large-scale global network (GWAN) connecting Hitachi's six regions with 260 circuits. The vendor provided a dedicated project team that ensured a smooth migration and offered support that exceeded expectations. The results included accelerated collaboration and infrastructure integration, enforced security through a unified policy, and the elimination of redundant costs. Hitachi now has a high-quality network lifeline supporting its global business.
