Sherpa & Company Launches SmartESG and Answer Ease for Haseko Corporation Sustainability

In a significant move towards enhancing sustainability practices, Sherpa & Company, headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo, announced the launch of two critical services for Haseko Corporation, also based in Tokyo. Starting from April 1, 2026, Haseko will integrate the sustainability information disclosure cloud service "SmartESG" and the AI-based response generation service "Answer Ease" into its operations.

Haseko Group underlines its commitment to corporate responsibility with the mission to create optimal living environments for people and contribute to society. Over the past fifty years, it has established a leading position in the condominium industry, focusing on addressing societal challenges through its business endeavors.

The adoption of "SmartESG" and "Answer Ease" represents an ambitious step for Haseko as it strives to advance its sustainability strategy. The "SmartESG" platform will enable the company to manage crucial data regarding sustainability assessment agencies through its comprehensive "Database" function. This cloud-based solution will streamline the storage and access of records concerning responses and results from key sustainability evaluations.

Moreover, the Haseko Corporation plans to leverage "Answer Ease" for better efficiency in responding to sustainability assessments led by S&P Global, particularly CSA (Corporate Sustainability Assessment) and CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project). By utilizing AI, Haseko aims to enhance the response times and accuracy in addressing the evaluations required by these organizations. Sherpa, recognized as an official partner by S&P Global, ensures that the integration of "SmartESG" with the CSA portal and API will allow Haseko to navigate the response generation and submission processes seamlessly on one unified platform. Additionally, Sherpa has been awarded the CDP Silver Certified Solution Provider status for its notable achievements in supporting CDP endeavors.

What is "SmartESG"?
The "SmartESG" platform is designed to consolidate sustainability and ESG data scattered across various departments within a company, thereby enabling strategic management of sustainability initiatives. It boasts four core functionalities that optimize data disclosure processes while facilitating high-level analytics:

1. Database: Centralizes the collection and management of potentially siloed internal data.
2. Workflow: Enhances visibility and efficiency in managing sustainability disclosures.
3. Focus: Applies AI to deliver advanced analytical capabilities.
4. Benchmark: Aids in comparing performance metrics against industry standards.

Overall, "SmartESG" not only accelerates sophisticated information disclosure but also strengthens stakeholder relations and cultivates sustainable operational strategies within enterprises. More suggestions can be found on their official website at SmartESG.

What is "Answer Ease"?
The "Answer Ease" service complements existing processes by automatically generating response drafts for sustainability-related questionnaires, based on companies’ existing data. By positioning AI as a supportive tool in the arduous task of answering ESG assessments, it significantly cuts down on workload and streamlines these labor-intensive tasks. The service does not just suggest responses but also incorporates cited references for each answer, ensuring clarity and reliability while tackling the issue of hallucination. This straightforward approach guarantees users benefit from both speed and accuracy in their reporting obligations, further solidifying Haseko’s position in sustainable practices.
