Case Study: Pernod Ricard achieves 5-minute quarterly planning and a unified single point of truth with Talend

Pernod Ricard - Customer Case Study

Pernod Ricard Deutschland GmbH, the German arm of the world’s second-largest wine and spirits group, needed to modernize its financial reporting. The subsidiary’s reporting relied on a parent-company structure and an outdated ETL and planning stack that was slow, opaque and produced unreliable figures, making quarterly and annual planning resource-intensive and error-prone.

Working with partner Timetoact and using Talend Data Integration, the team rebuilt ETL processes and a central data warehouse to create a single point of truth with regular data checks. The new solution delivered a unified, reliable data pool, cut core report imports from eight hours to 20 minutes, enabled actual vs. target analysis for quarterly planning in about five minutes, and let controllers run processes themselves while reducing total costs.
