Spirit Group is the managed division of Punch Taverns, the United Kingdom's leading pub company with over 9,200 pubs nationwide. The company wanted to consolidate the data from existing transactional systems across two newly merged organizations, and make it available via an integrated group data architecture. The challenge was to improve reporting, transaction reporting, and data analysis. Spirit Group delivered a single operating view of all group data - including financial, logistics, transaction, order management, and marketing information - using Oracle Database. The company provided a detailed level of real-time reporting using Oracle Reports, taking feeds from more than 1,410 pubs on a daily and weekly basis, plus EDI feeds from suppliers.
