Master Data As a Service (M-DaaS)

Whenever you have to create a new master data like new business partner, customer, supplier or material, you need to contact multiple stakeholders. Most of the time all the stakeholders might not be available in time or they miight not have information to provide in hand. This delays the master data creation process and sometimes takes several days. In today's digital era, such inordinate delays are not acceptable for any enterprise.

Data Quality and Master Data Governance

More than anything else, Cost-Quality Trade Off determines the specifications of a Product. Hence Every Enterprise requires its own standards for specifying the product attributes based on the cost and quality needs of the enterprise. This standard directly influences the specifications of the materials within that enterprise's context. Hence the product specifications which are right for one enterprise might under-specified or over-specified for another. As The Right Specification Standard for a Product determines its alternate or equivalent product, A Data Integrity Framework needs to be established.

  • Data Quality through Data Integrity Framework

    The Key Elements of a Data Integrity Framework are as follows:

    • Formulate Product Classification Structure/Ontology/Data Dictionary With every class and the associated characteristics to every class,
    • Parse and Classify Legacy Data against estalblished Classification Standard We assign the right class to each object.
    • Enrich Attributes: Complement the data by correcting and adding the missing information pieces (attributes and their values)
    • Consolidation of Material base: Integrating all the material base by ensuring the entire material base is fitted to the data integrity standars so that together they make a meaningful set of data
    • De-Duplication: Since the Material Data will be consolidated from different sources, de-duplication process should be performed to ensure there are no redundant specifications from different perspectives like purchase, maintenance, warehouse management etc.
    • Common Enterprise Data Dictionary should be updated for every data-addition
