Yarra Valley Water Turns to Enterprise Software to Improve Information Flow

Tags:
knowledge and data management

Overview Yarra Valley Water (YVW) is the largest of the city of Melbourne's three metropolitan water retailers. To fulfill its mission, YVW decided to invest in a more flexible architecture and integrated billing, finance, asset management, and business intelligence systems. The company's existing technology platform was highly fragmented, with reporting undertaken in ad-hoc fashion and senior managers often working with superseded or incorrect information when making decisions. After a thorough evaluation process, YVW selected a range of Oracle products, including Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (BIEE), Oracle SOA Suite, and Oracle Utilities Customer Care and Billing to build the new environment.
