Overview
Fujitsu Limited is Japan's largest IT services company, with revenue of roughly JPY 3.8 trillion (approximately US$25 billion) across 124,000 employees and operations in more than 100 countries. The group is publicly listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and is led by CEO Takahito Tokita. Within the firm, the ServiceNow practice operates as a global Customer Excellence unit anchored from Kawasaki and integrated with regional delivery hubs in the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, India, and Australia.
The Fujitsu–ServiceNow relationship was formally expanded in 2024 with an Enterprise Training Agreement that targets more than 10,000 certified consultants and the launch of a co-innovation centre at Fujitsu's Kawasaki headquarters. The practice spans ITSM, ITOM, CSM, HRSD, SecOps, IRM, and SPM, with deeper-than-average concentration in Japanese government, defence ministries in Europe, and large manufacturing accounts. Fujitsu was recognised across multiple ServiceNow Partner Awards categories in 2026, including for Customer Excellence and Sustainability.
Buyers typically engage Fujitsu when ServiceNow is part of a broader managed-services or outsourcing relationship, particularly in Japan, the United Kingdom, and the DACH region. The firm fits less well for North American buyers seeking a US-headquartered partner, or for ServiceNow-only specialist work where boutiques such as Crossfuze, Thirdera, or NewRocket are typically more focused.

Strengths
- One of the largest ServiceNow practices globally, with a stated target of more than 10,000 certified consultants under the 2024 ETA
- Strong public-sector credentials, particularly in Japan, the United Kingdom (CCS frameworks), and Germany
- Integrated with Fujitsu's wider managed services and infrastructure outsourcing book, enabling bundled commercial models

Limitations
- North American ServiceNow practice is smaller than European and APAC operations, with fewer senior architects on the bench
- Commercial model is often optimised around bundled outsourcing, which can complicate standalone ServiceNow procurement
- Account quality has historically varied by region; UK and Japan are stronger than continental Europe
- Ongoing group restructuring under "Fujitsu Uvance" creates occasional reorganisation churn for client teams
- Less product-led innovation around store apps compared to specialist Elite partners
