Nippon Steel (TYO:5401) is now compiling hundreds of potential enhancements to boost production efficiency, six months after completing its purchase of U.S. Steel, Nikkei Asia reported on Thursday, citing president and COO Tadashi Imai.

This initiative is a key component of a wider transformation plan, backed by a commitment to invest $11 billion into the American manufacturer, the publication said.

Imai said it has deployed dozens of its personnel to U.S. Steel's facilities, conducting a comprehensive assessment.

The $11 billion in capital, slated for deployment through U.S. Steel by 2028, will fund major projects like renovating outdated blast furnaces and constructing new steelmaking plants.
