Master Data Management

Master Data Management (MDM) is a core component of modern data management. MDM is a critical discipline that focuses on uniformity, accuracy, consistency, semantic integrity of shared reference data across the enterprise. A single, consistent view of master entities—customers, products, accounts, employees, etc.—that span multiple business processes is important to ensure both data quality and process integrity. Customer relationship management (CRM) is difficult without customer data integration, and a 360 view of customers is impossible to achieve without actively managing customer data. Similarly, supply chain management is difficult without integrated and consistent product, supplier, and partner data.

These are but two examples of the reasons that MDM is a critical data management capability. As enterprises strive to become data driven and data use cases expand with the adoption of self-service analytics and data science applications, the role and reach of master data expands rapidly. In the age of digital transformation MDM is no longer a “nice to have” capability. It is an essential competency for business success.
