Asunene Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kohei Nishida, hereinafter "the company"), provider of the cloud-based CO2 emissions visualization, reduction, and reporting service "ASUENE", has initiated integration with Sansan Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President, CEO, CPO: Chikahiro Terada), and its finance AX service "Bill One". Through the integration of two widely adopted enterprise services, both companies aim to advance CO2 emissions calculation using invoice data and enhance sustainability reporting with a focus on SSBJ compliance and preparation for third-party assurance.
Additionally, at the upcoming "ASUENE SUSTAINABILITY SUMMIT 2026" scheduled for July 23, 2026, Sansan Co., Ltd. will host a special session. The session will present both companies’ collaborative initiatives and practical approaches addressing real-world challenges related to SSBJ compliance and third-party verification.
Background of the Integration
Sustainability disclosure by corporations is evolving rapidly, with the Sustainability Standards Board of Japan (SSBJ) actively developing disclosure standards. Listed companies, in particular, are increasingly required to manage non-financial data such as CO2 emissions with high reliability and prepare for third-party assurance.
As a result, establishing robust systems to properly manage source documents such as invoices and supporting evidence has become a critical challenge.
Asunene supports corporate decarbonization through "ASUENE", the CO2 visualization service with the highest number of cumulative enterprise adoptions in Japan. Sansan drives digital transformation and AI transformation in accounts payable operations through "Bill One", which has ranked No. 1 in market share for three consecutive years* in the cloud invoice receipt service market.
By integrating two services with extensive enterprise adoption, the companies aim to elevate CO2 emissions management and sustainability disclosure processes in preparation for SSBJ compliance and third-party assurance.
Details of the Collaboration
The collaboration will connect "ASUENE" with "Bill One".
By integrating invoice data stored in "Bill One" into "ASUENE", companies can efficiently calculate CO2 emissions using actual invoice information. This reduces manual input errors and enhances the accuracy of emissions calculations based on verifiable documentation.
Furthermore, by linking CO2 emissions data with corresponding invoice data, companies can centrally manage calculation evidence, supporting data and document governance aligned with SSBJ compliance and third-party assurance requirements.
Specific details of this service integration will be presented during a session at the "ASUENE SUSTAINABILITY SUMMIT 2026" on July 23, 2026.
