Foster’s Group

Foster’s wanted to consolidate and simplify its ERP systems, establishing a common set of business processes, and improving the quality of data throughout the enterprise.

Although many people know Foster’s Group primarily for its flagship beers, this 160-year-old global beverage company owns a portfolio of more than 200 brands of drinks, including beer, wine, spirits, cider, and non-alcoholic beverages. Headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, Foster’s has operations on five continents, sells its products in more than 100 countries, and employs a workforce of 6,000 at the company’s vineyards, wineries, bottling centers, breweries, and distilleries in six countries.

Challenges

  • Simplify business processes and information systems globally after a series of acquisitions to increase operational efficiency and reduce costs
  • Establish a single view of trusted data to drive better decisions, compliance, and customer relationships
The target state for our enterprise architecture program is to have a single source of truth for critical business data worldwide. The Informatica Platform is an essential part of achieving that goal.
