Inhaltsangabe

Your organization already has data. The challenge is knowing whether people can trust it.

Customer information appears differently across systems. Product records conflict. Supplier information is duplicated. Reports disagree. Employees spend time reconciling information instead of using it.

Master Data Management: What, Why, and How to Begin is a practical guide for business leaders and technical teams who want to understand Master Data Management without turning it into an overly complicated technology exercise.

This book explains how to connect MDM to meaningful business problems, start with a manageable scope, discover and analyze the information that matters, define matching and survivorship rules, establish governance and stewardship responsibilities, select an appropriate architecture, evaluate MDM technology, and build, test, deploy, measure, refine, and scale a focused MDM initiative.

Along the way, practical examples, a comprehensive glossary, a working MDM checklist, and a sample small-scale project plan help turn the concepts into actions an organization can use.

MDM is not about creating perfect data. It is about creating information the organization can trust enough to use.

Start with the problem. Understand the information. Involve the right people. Build confidence. Then expand.
