Overview
Master Data Management (MDM) is becoming an imperative for a majority
of enterprises as their architectures evolve from silo-based to integration-based.
Enterprise application integration, data warehousing, mergers and actuations,
supply chain management, and regulatory reporting are all driving the
integration paradigm at an accelerating speed. Yet, without adequate
MDM all these initiatives are at risk. This seminar provides a practical
guide to implementing successful MDM. It covers the entire spectrum
of MDM, from developing logical architectures to establishing governance
for physical data values. Modelling and design are covered, but strong
emphasis is also placed on the physical layer, where content must be
controlled to assure data quality, and services established to make
master data useable and available. Data governance for master data
is presented as the development as a set of services that support all
MDM stakeholders, backed up by a permanent Enterprise Information Management
function and an adequate set of supporting infrastructure. Practical
steps are emphasized throughout the seminar.
- What Master Data is, and the unique management challenges it has
- How to organize for MDM in a programme-based approach
- Usable data architecture and data design patterns to apply to MDM
- How to map and monitor the physical data landscape, and how to implement information knowledge management for MDM
- How to implement data governance for MDM from the perspective of designing processes and building services
- Practical ways of enhancing data stewardship and data content management to support data quality goals
- Building a supportive metadata-based infrastructure for MDM.
- Definition of Master Data and its subcategories with special emphasis on the unique management tasks for each of these subcategories.
- An overview of the services that are required in MDM and the processes and supporting infrastructure required to implement them
- The role of architecture in managing Master Data. In particular the different styles of hubs and MDM products will be reviewed.
- The structure of Master Data and the metadata that is closely associated with it. Semantic management for reference data, and management of hidden subtypes in transaction structure data will be covered.
- The need for data governance in MDM, how to implement these facets of data governance, and getting organizational buy-in for governance.
- MDM as a programme as opposed to MDM as a project, and how to plan to deliver MDM services for the long run.
- How to undertake source data analysis and how to produce a map of the data landscape, especially capturing Master Data producers and consumers.
- How vendors are addressing MDM needs and the categories of vendor products
- How to build a business plan to present MDM as worthy of investment. This will focus both on justification and developing an initial plan for MDM rollout.
- Production implementation, process control, production support, change management, and other activities related to running MDM in production.
- Details of import and integration into an MDM hub. The structure of the staging an integration areas. The tasks that have to be carried out in the import process.
