China Yangtze Power Co., Ltd is China's largest publicly listed utility. Yangtze Power relies heavily on technology to support smooth operations. To gain a coherent view of its operations, Yangtze Power had to consolidate data from these systems, a time-consuming task that hindered timely decision-making during critical periods. The company decided to migrate information from these systems into a single, integrated database, allowing staff to easily access data from across the organization when compiling reports. In 2007, Yangtze Power created a new information management system based on Oracle Database 10g. The database interfaced with 10 systems, including finance, human resources, contract management, power generation management, and safety and control management.
