International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) Japan (hereinafter, IBM Japan), Oracle Japan Corporation (hereinafter, Oracle Japan), and TIS Inc. (hereinafter, TIS) have unified the financial accounting systems for the entire JTB Group, encompassing a total of 54 domestic and overseas companies (Note 1) of JTB Corporation (hereinafter, JTB), establishing a management foundation capable of integrated data management and analysis on a global level.

Through this, JTB will improve the timeliness, accuracy, and immediacy of its financial accounting information, advancing the sophistication of its management information.

Previously, the JTB Group's financial accounting systems were fragmented by domestic headquarters and branches, corporations, and regions (siloed), resulting in dispersed financial data. Consequently, the collection and analysis of vast amounts of information were handled manually, and data integration with business systems was limited, posing a challenge in responding swiftly to changes in the business environment. This prevented the timely, immediate, and accurate collection and analysis of management information.

In response, IBM Japan, Oracle Japan, and TIS implemented "Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications," cloudifying the financial accounting system by introducing it to a total of 23 domestic headquarters and domestic group companies of JTB in April 2025, and to 31 overseas corporations in January 2026. In conjunction with "Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications," which offers high connectivity with financial accounting, TIS's suite of management control services "ACTIONARISE," and its cloud-based expense management system "Spendia," along with "" (details omitted due to truncation in the original text) enabling flexible data integration between the new system and business systems.
