KAWASAKI, Japan, May 7, 2026 – (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Fujitsu Limited today announced that it has developed and launched the X, a new digital system utilizing Salesforce, to streamline the management functions, including mobilization and training support, for the registered Reserve Self-Defense Force personnel [1] in Japan for the Ministry of Defense. The system commenced operations in Japan in April 2026.ReSMS digitalizes and centralizes the management of Reserve Self-Defense Force personnel, including their mobilization and training support. This initiative contributes to the smooth and rapid operation of the Reserve Self-Defense Force system within the Ministry of Defense.

Overview

Reserve Self-Defense Force personnel are called upon during disasters or national emergencies to serve as Self-Defense Force personnel, engaging in duties such as garrison security and disaster relief. Previously, scheduling their mandatory annual training, which varies by assigned job type, was managed through postal mail and telephone, leading to significant time consumption for recruitment officers in handling registration and other procedures. To address these challenges, Fujitsu collaborated with the Ministry of Defense to build and implement ReSMS. Through ReSMS, Reserve Self-Defense Force personnel can now book their training participation and access e-learning modules via their smartphones or other devices. Furthermore, administrators can centrally manage mobilization tasks, training participation status, and educational progress of Reserve Self-Defense Force personnel using this system. For units receiving training, the system facilitates easier planning of training schedules and coordination with related departments for accommodation, significantly enhancing operational efficiency. This not only streamlines training but also enables timely notification for the mobilization of Reserve Self-Defense Force personnel during emergencies, contributing to rapid disaster relief and assistance. Moving forward, Fujitsu will continue to support the efficient and rapid operation of the Reserve Self-Defense Force system for the Ministry of Defense through functional enhancements and ongoing operation of ReSMS, thereby contributing to Japan’s national security.
