Prologue
Data governance (DG) is vital to success of MDM projects – both initially & ongoing
During 2011-12, Global 5000 enterprises will increasingly mandate that “no MDM program be funded without the pre-requisite DG framework”
“Proactive DG” that includes entire master data lifecycle will increasingly be mandated as a core phase zero or phase one deliverable of most large-scale MDM projects
Given substantial investment required for MDM programs, co-dependence/synergy of DG & MDM must be given close scrutiny – not only to contain costs, but also to insure success
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Working Definitions
Master Data Management (MDM)
Authoritative, reliable foundation for data used across many applications & constituencies with goal to provide single view of truth
no matter where it lies.
CDI is mandatory first step for most organizations on journey to MDM
Product Information Mgmt (PIM)
Processes & technologies for recognizing PRODUCT,
SUPPLIER, & PRICING master data
Customer Data Integration (CDI)
Processes & technologies for recognizing a customer & its
relationships at any touch-point while aggregating, managing &
harmonizing accurate, up-to-date knowledge about that customer to
deliver it ‘just in time’ in an actionable form to touch-points.
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Working Definitions - continued
Multi-Entity Master Data Management (MDM)
An MDM solution to concurrently manage multiple, diverse master data domains
(customers, accounts, products) across intra- and extra-enterprise business processes
Master Reference Data Management (RDM)
Non-volatile reference data shared across the enterprise in context within applications (&
possibly within the industry via “exchanges”); examples: units of measure; currency rates;
calendars; other look-up tables
Large enterprises assume MDM = multi-entity MDM when evaluating software; RDM remains a key variable among the
vendors as few vendors are enabled (yet) © 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Working Sub-Definitions (“Use” Cases)
For most G5000 enterprises, multiple (often all) variants will be needed to make MDM initiatives successful
Analytical MDM
Definition, creation, & analysis of master data to measure the
business; examples: counterparty risk mgmt apps &
financial reporting consolidation
Collaborative MDM
Definition, creation, & synchronization of master
reference data via workflow & check-in / check-out services;
examples: PIM data hubs & AML
Operational MDM
Definition, creation, & synchronization of master data
required for transactional systems & delivered via SOA to
run the business; examples: near R/T customer hubs &
securities masters
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
Data Governance Working Definitions
Data Governance (DG)
Formal orchestration of people, process, & technology to enable an organization to leverage data as an
enterprise asset across different lines-of-business and IT systems
Passive Data Governance
Data steward consoles & other reactive data management
capabilities focused on after-the-fact data compliance; often batch-
like & not integrated with MDM
Master Data Governance aligns IT-centric viewpoints & business-centric viewpoints regarding data quality; MDM & MDG are becoming
natural way of aligning data w ith business processes
Proactive Data Governance
Metrics-driven, crowd-sourced capability for business users & IT
to actively control their shared data across different lines of
business & IT systems
Active Data Governance
Metrics-enabled, upstream data policy enablement; replaces
manual data admin processes with role-based, real-time SME
empowerment
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
Prologue
Through 2011-12, major SIs & boutique consultancies will focus on productizing DG frameworks while MDM software providers struggle to link governance process with process hub technologies
Concurrently, Global 5000 size enterprises will struggle to evolve enterprise-strength DG both in cost-effective & practical ways that shift from “passive” to “active” to “proactive” DG modes
DG assistance from SIs will remain especially vital to success of MDM programs during 2011-12 as organizations deal with a shortage of DG experience, tools & tool expertise
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
Prologue
Understanding scope, diversity & limitations of current Data Governance solution offerings is tremendously challenging – even more so, given fast pace of M&A & complexities of integrating such diverse software portfolios
Nonetheless, business & IT leadership chartered with defining & executing MDM programs need help to understand & navigate through numerous Data Governance options
“Go governance, go early” is rallying cry of savvy enterprise &solution architects chartered with setting scope & direction of their enterprise’s data integration programs
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
Why Data Governance
Overly complex IT infrastructure Silo-driven, application area-
centric solutions Slow-to-market delivery of new
or enhanced application solutions
Inconsistent definitions of key corporate data assets such as customer, supplier, & pricing masters
Poor data accuracy within & across business areas
LOB-focused data with inefficient or nonexistent ability to leverage information assets across LOBs
Redundant IT initiatives to re-solve data accuracy problems for each individual LOB
Uniform communications with customers, suppliers, & channels due to veracity & accuracy of key master data
Common understanding of business policies & processes across LOBs & with business partners/channels
Rapid cross-LOB implementation of new apps requiring shared access to master data
Singular definition & location of master data & related policies to enable transparency & auditability essential to regulatory compliance
Continuous DQ improvement as DQ processes are embedded upstream rather than downstream
Increased synergy for cross-sell & upsell
Pre-Governance Post-Governance
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
Master Data Governance Challenges
Break down functional & organizational stovepipes Integrate processes across the enterprise – including
corporate technology, all LOBs, functional areas & geographic regions
Engage all levels of management & adjudicate between centralized vs. decentralized data stewardship
Evolve key stakeholders from “data ownership” to “data stewardship”
Overcome lack of process integration in current “data governance” offerings
Based on recognition of issues at hand, an improving economy, & increasing regulatory requirements, businesses are now recognizing
opportunity to take more strategic view of data governance

MDM Institute’s Data Governance Maturity Model
“Anarchy” (basic) – Application-centric approach; meets business needs only on project-specific basis
“Feudalism” (foundational) – IT policy-driven standardization on technology & methods; common usage of tools & procedures across projects
“Monarchy” (advanced) – business-driven, rationalized data with data & metadata actively shared in production across sources
“Federalism” (distinctive) – SOA (modular components), integrated view of compliance requirements, formalized organization with defined roles & responsibilities, clearly defined metrics, iterative learning cycle
Fin Svc providers are leading the way – in spend & discipline; technology can only achieve so much as organization must be
prepared to continually adapt & treat data as enterprise asset above project level; data needs to be an asset not a liability.

“Data Governance for MDM” Market – Chaos or Confusion?
Market-leading MDM vendors will come to market in late 2011-12 with proactive DG frameworks to take back the lucrative DG business currently defaulting to SIs
Corollary is few MDM vendors will be able to market their solutions without such proactive DG capability – one that embeds a workflow engine with metadata support for both structured & unstructured info
Where will that leave the SIs – as partners, competitors or both?
Given lack of DG solutions from MDM platform vendors, SIs have had market largely to themselves; 2011 operative word = “coop-etition”

Overall Critique of Existing DG Capabilities
Mismatch of applying project-oriented methodology rather than asset-focused methodologies
Methodologies missing the asset aspect of data … cost, decaying value, ROI for cleansing data, etc.
Frameworks not addressing “community” aspect of shared asset development – e.g. wikis for global corporate business vocabulary, etc.
Current DG solutions do not provide systemic rigor nor E2E lifecycle support
Systemic rigor & organizational maturity are equally , if not more, important than software … but the market lags
demand for DG frameworks with consultancies filling void via custom-built DG workflows

Master Data Governance Bottom Line
Acknowledge that manual data governance is error prone, time-consuming & unable to ensure compliance or measure business impact
Don’t settle for “passive” / downstream data governance
Realize that “data steward consoles” are more than demo-ware for headless apps … but substantially less than integrated/proactive master data governance
Demand “proactive” / upstream data governance Don’t expect “data governance maturity assessments”
to provide road map out of anarchy Prepare to spend £250K- £ 500K for initial MDG solution MDM & MDG are codependent/interdependent … invest
upfront in data governance for MDM sustainability & ROI … “go early, go governance”

‘Top 5’ Business Drivers for MDM Initiatives
1. Synergies for cross-sell & up-sell
2. Compliance & regulatory reporting
3. “Once & done” economies & customer satisfaction
4. Legacy system integration & augmentation
5. Economies of scale for M&A
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Provides Synergies for Cross-Sell & Up-Sell
Accelerates revenue growth via more intelligent cross-sell & up-sell enabled by complete understanding of customer (profile, accounts & interactions) to leverage bundling opportunities
Increases understanding of large customers by grouping all buying organizations into corporate (B2B) or household (B2C) hierarchy
Enables integrated customer analytics – i.e., profitability analysis, & lifetime value
Enables “co-opetition” & electronic storefront models – e.g., B2B, B2C, & B2B2C
QUICK WIN = increase wallet share & provide innovative/ sticky bundles
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Enables Compliance & Regulatory Reporting
Centrally manages privacy preferences for consistent rules of visibility & entitlements
Enhances “evergreening” of customer data accuracy – e.g., continuous customer data improvement by providing self-directed customer care portals … which in turn integrate customer info across business units
Enables regulatory reporting compliance– i.e., large customers’ material events (SOX, BASEL II, SOLVENCY II)
Facilitates compliance with AML, OFAC, USA PATRIOT, KYC, KYS, et al
QUICK WIN = avoid regulatory fines & negative public relations/ publicity
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Significantly Increases “Once & Done” Economies & Customer Satisfaction
Drives fundamental operational savings & efficiencies – e.g., “once & done” enterprise-wide services for key processes –e.g., account changes (name, address)
Protects brand integrity by increasing customer satisfaction due to more focused marketing & service campaigns – e.g., “blended agent” capability to provide customer service across multiple touchpoints/channels
Actualizes “consistent customer treatment” by blending channels to deliver common customer interactions / experiences across all touchpoints
Drives costs of “dirty data” out of the info supply chain Enables self-directed customer experience for sales &
service QUICK WIN = reduced direct marketing costs (postage, outbound
telesales) & increase competitive quality-of-service © 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Provides Increased ROI by “Leveraging Existing Infrastructure”
Enables integration of new & old channels – e.g., collections, fraud, contact centers with kiosk, ATM, IVR and online self-service
Minimizes architectural complexity to simplify application solution design, deployment, & maintenance
Reduces number of interfaces between applications & increasing reuse factor to save substantial integration costs
Improves infrastructure flexibility & control to enhance overall system performance
Accelerates ROI of enterprise CRM solutions
QUICK WIN = increased sales force & call center productivity
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Provides Economies of Scale for M&A
Facilitates quick scales of economy in mergers & acquisitions (M&A) – e.g., shortening customer, desktop, & billing integration timeframes while providing scalability to support rapid assimilation of new block of customers
Accelerates revenue growth via more intelligent cross-sell & up-sell enabled by complete understanding of customer (profile, accounts & interactions) to leverage bundling opportunities
QUICK WIN = posit enterprise as M&A-ready & provide consolidation of customers , suppliers & products for economies of scale
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
Quick Wins Can Become Long Term Losses
Random acts of MDM create silos of master data Pervasive MDM will be the norm next 3+ years Master data governance requires commitment
MDM & master data governance interdependent … invest upfront in data governance for MDM sustainability & ROI
“Go Governance, Go Early” © 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
Master Data Governance Strategic Planning Assumption
Through 2012, most enterprises will struggle with enterprise MDG while they initially focus on customer, vendor, or product; integrated MDG that includes E2E data lifecycle will be mandated as phase 1 deliverable
During 2012-13, major SIs & MDM boutiques will focus on productizing MDG frameworks while MDM software providers struggle to link governance process with process hub technologies; concurrently enterprises will struggle to evolve enterprise MDG in cost-effective & practical ways from “passive” to “active” MDG modes
By 2014-15, vendor MDM solutions will finally move from “passive-aggressive MDG” mode to “proactive MDG”
MDM MILESTONE © 2012 The MDM Institute www.The-MDM-Institute.com
MDM is moving beyond simple stewardship to convergence of task management, workflow, policy
management & enforcement
Budgets/Skills Strategic Planning Assumption
During 2012, the number of IT professionals trained in a specific MDM solution will increase 200% Y2Y, however, IT orgs &consultancies will struggle to recruit & retain MDM veterans who have actually successfully had a major role in an MDM deployment
Through 2013-14, enterprises will continue to spend to 3X to 4X in “plan” & “build” services vs. MDM software
By 2014-15, supply of MDM-experienced consultants will catch up with demand & SIs will scramble to find new opptys for their expensively recruited & trained talent
MDM MILESTONE
Given substantial investment businesses undertake with SI partners, this must be scrutinized – not only in effort to contain costs, but also
to insure success of this vital infrastructure investment

Why Data Governance? Why Now?
Businesses have been governing data for 20+ years, however, only a rare few are doing it well today
Many companies historically assigned DG to a data management group whose job is to integrate & manage data
Contemporary DG challenges are far greater Break down functional stovepipes Integrate processes across the enterprise –
including corporate technology, all LOBs, functional areas & geographic regions
Engage all levels of management
Based on recognition of issues at hand, an improving economy, & increasing regulatory requirements, businesses are now recognizing
the opportunity to take a more strategic view of data governance © 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
Why Data Governance? Why Now? – cont’d
Once you know what data is worth, you need to calculate probability for risk in a business processes
When you understand value of data & probability of risk, you can evaluate how much to spend to protect it, manage it, and invest in adequate controls
This is basis of modern underwriting – assets, risk, controls Doing this systemically requires a combination of
organizational structures, business processes, & technology – a “data governance blueprint” for: Data quality Information integration Business intelligence
IT mgmt must work w ith business leadership to design & refine “future state” business processes associated w ith DG commitments

Data Governance Maturity Level
Overall, FSPs are leading the way for non-FSPs
BASIC (“anarchy”) – App-centric approach; meets business needs only on project-specific basis
FOUNDATIONAL (“IT feudalism”) – Policy-driven standardization on technology & methods; common usage of tools & procedures across projects
ADVANCED (“business monarchy”) – Rationalized data with data & metadata actively shared in production across sources
DISTINCTIVE (“federalism”) – SOA (modular components), integrated view of compliance requirements, formalized organization with defined roles & responsibilities, clearly defined metrics, iterative learning cycle

Pervasive MDM Strategic Planning Assumption
During 2012, application providers will deploy en masse, the next generation of MDM-innate (as opposed to MDM-aware) applications; concurrently SaaS vendors will struggle to provide integrated/native MDM.
Through 2012-13, mega vendors Microsoft and Oracle will effectively give away departmental MDM –via MSFT MDS and Oracle DRM respectively.
By 2013, SaaS providers will have finessed this issue via strategic partnerships and investments in MDM. By 2014, market for MDM-enabled applications will exceed that for MDM software.
MDM MILESTONE
MDM-innate (e.g. Fusion MDM) will overwhelm MDM-enabled applications
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.The-MDM-Institute.com
Universal MDM Strategic Planning Assumption
Through 2012, corporate MDM platform evaluation teams will assume (& insist) that all MDM software platforms targeted for enterprise-level deployment or major role in mission-critical systems fully support both PARTY & THING entity types
During 2013-14, large enterprises will also mandate that REFERENCE data be part of MDM platform native entity types
By 2015, all operational CDI hub vendors will add PIM light capabilities, & all PIM vendors will add B2C PARTY entity
MDM MILESTONE
Most PIM are multi-domain, not just PIM … always include SUPPLIER or CUSTOMER; CDI always has entitlements
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.The-MDM-Institute.com
Reference Data Management (RDM) Strategic Planning Assumption
Through 2012-13, reference data will emerge as a key entry point for enterprises & in turn unduly influence their choice of MDM for Customer, Product & other domains
Concurrently, MDM vendors will rush to market RDM solutions to apply MDM approach for centralized governance, stewardship & control
WIT, Kingland & other SIs will move via OEMing of INFA & IBM MDM into "securities master" market under pricing umbrella of GoldenSource
By 2015, pervasive, low cost RDM will be commoditized via the efforts of MSFT & ORCL
MDM MILESTONE
Managing “simple” reference data will prove to be a key sales entry point for MDM vendors

PARTY:PRODUCT Conundrum
Different master entity types may require different MDM brands or architectures Product data shared across supply
chain Employee data captive within HR apps Customer data never leaves home
(outside the firewalls) Customer policy/ process hubs
ultimately require pricing masters, product masters, supplier masters, & so on …
Pricing Authorized Products
Bundles Cross-Reference
Hierarchies Geographical Variants

PRODUCT
SOA mandates “Party” + “Product” MDM – however, “customer” cannot simply be added as object to PIM products

Why Organizational Hierarchy Management ?
Based on recognition of need to Grow beyond mature North American & Western European market
Support global customer service
G5000 businesses are now recognizing opportunity to take more strategic view of “global account management”
Market demand for “customer hierarchy mgmt” – esp. B2B – capability to augment mega vendor’s data hub strategies (IBM, ORCL, SAP) will greatly increase during 2012-13
MDM solutions which incorporate such capabilities will be key factor in successful deployment of globally-enabled MDM solutions
3rd party hierarchy data inadequate or non-existent for certain georaphies – e.g., Equifax/Austin-Tetra, D&B, …

Run, Grow & Transform the Business
• MDM is a major IT initiative underway at large # of market-leading Global 5000 enterprises
• Most enterprises & solutions vendors are finding near-term success with single-faceted approach inherent with 3rd generation MDM solutions
• Myopically focusing solely on single data domain & usage style is detrimental to longer term business strategy of integrating supply, demand, & info chains across both intra- & extra-enterprise boundaries
• Coming to market during 2011-12 are 4th generation multi-entity MDM solutions which address requirement for multiple domains & styles as well as roles of consumers
• Master Data Governance (MDG) remains the “X” factor Without single view of X (customer/supplier/product) your
organization cannot be fully effective, efficient or manage risk © 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com

“Top 10” MDM Evaluation Criteria
1. Data model 2. Business services 3. Identity resolution 4. Data governance 5. Architecture 6. Data management 7. Infrastructure 8. Analytics 9. Developer productivity 10.Vendor integrity
Infrastructure fracas will escalate as mega app vendors rush to
dominate business services/processes & data models as high ground
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
#1 Criteria = Data Model
Data model to support complex roles & relationships Party (customer, supplier, employee) & product Reference – including price, location Demographic profile – e.g., name, address, phone number, marital
status, etc. Roles & relationships between parties – including B2B company
hierarchies & B2C householding Additional related entities – e.g., entitlements, prices, & privacy
preferences Data heritage, change history & survivorship
Industry-specific (vertical) extensions Ability to import industry standard or custom-built
data models – e.g., IBM IAA, IBM BDW, OASIS CIQ, Siebel CIF, Hogan CIS, Dendrite
Ability to support 3rd party hierarchy structures – e.g., D&B, Austin-Tetra
Vendor roadmap to “link” party & product domains
Depth & breadth of data model – plus ability to adapt statically & on-the-fly – provide a solid MDM foundation
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
#2 Criteria = Business Services
External workflow engine & web services transaction support – e.g., business process management (BPM)
Rules engine E2E support with operational applications with accelerators for
complex transactions – e.g., new account origination & order to cash Business semantic-driven horizontal customer processes – e.g.
add party, change address, retire customers “Best practice” templates for both horizontal &
vertical customer – e.g., related processes Compatibility with existing infrastructure investments – e.g.,
Tibco, MQ-Series, etc. Standards – e.g., OMG’s Model-Driven Architecture (MDA), WS-
Coordination, WS-Transaction, & BPEL Vendor roadmap to process/policy hub solution via SOA
Functionality & extensibility of business services are critical evaluation criteria for MDM solutions – longer term “process hubs” are the goal
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
#3 Criteria = Identity Resolution
Very high performance matching/aggregation/search Ability to generate or incorporate “universal” master keys or
global IDs Cross-reference management – e.g., 1:M support, enforcement of
cross-referencing Support for all identity types – e.g., individual, household,
organization Change detection & event mgmt – e.g., propagation
& validation, in-doubt resolution Support for privacy regulations – e.g., California SB-168 for
remediation of SSN off public documents E2E data mgmt processes to enforce data quality Enable regulatory & privacy mandates Non-obvious/intrusive entity resolution
Smart matching plus effective human intervention – & automated actions – yield better identity management
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
#4 Criteria = Data Governance
Process design capture tools Accelerators for people, process & technology integration – e.g.,
DG steering committees, process councils, & corporate/LOB data stewards
Tactical data steward consoles Integrated metrics
Based on recognition of issues at hand, an improving economy, & increasing regulatory requirements, businesses are now recognizing the opportunity to
take a more strategic view of data governance © 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
#5 Criteria = Architecture
Multi-modality architectures Virtual/registry Persistence Confederation
Multi-modal use cases Analytical MDM Operational MDM Collaborative MDM
Multi-modal security Profile access control Integration with security of DB, CRM & ERP Role-based user rights mgmt
Given the generational evolution of MDM styles, it is vital to select a MDM solution specifically tuned
for a given set of long term MDM requirements
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
#6 Criteria = Data Management
Consolidation & survivorship rules – e.g., intelligent merge/unmerge Application- & role-level authorization Data cleansing
Address cleansing & standardization Pre-built integration to leading DQ tools Closed loop-DQ Data profiling
Central enforcement & tracking of DQ Integration with Web-enabled aggregator data Complex, long running transaction Support for multiple master data types – e.g., reference,
transactions Comprehensive set of customer attributes for complete profile History & audit trails
Goal is to create end-to-end data mgmt processes that may be invoked by other major customer facing subsystems in addition to CRM package
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
#7 Criteria = Infrastructure
Scalability – e.g., in-memory or cache DBs; just-in-time aggregation Manageability - e.g., system management & monitoring tools Accessibility – e.g., ability to service wide-range of performance levels Availability – e.g., resilience to various failure situations such as
hardware & network outages; continuous data maintenance/ synchronization
Rigorous multi-model support for all integration modes Real-time
Tightly-coupled – e.g., COM, Java, CORBA) Loosely-coupled (IBM MQ Series, XML/HTTP, integration servers)
Near real-time Loosely-coupled (IBM MQ AMI, XML/HTTP, integration servers)
Batch EDI, RosettaNet
Pre-packaged integration processes & templates Intelligent routing – e.g., alerts, content-based routing & pub-sub
As “single point of failure” asset, MDM internal infrastructure has all the requirements of mission-critical applications & must be evaluated so
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.the-MDM-Institute.com
#8 Criteria = Analytics
Customer segmentation & targeting for cross-sell & up-sell
In-line analytics for closed-loop marketing
Data profiling to manage “degree of trust” associated with given master customer data source – e.g., completeness, uniqueness, accuracy, & lineage)
No longer are batch-oriented data marts or data warehouses sufficient to provide fundamental analytics necessary to drive customer profitability &
value assessments (to enable JIT & differentiated service)

Managing the SI Relationship
Determining the evaluation criteria for selecting SI partners for MDM projects
Identifying which SIs are market leaders in your industry & your chosen software technologies
Managing the SI relationship – esp. avoiding “brain drain” & inflationary “blended rates”
Preparing for talent shortages now is the savvy way to avoid the MDM "money pit" later
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.The-MDM-Institute.com
Why Focus on “SI” Cost Component?
MDM projects typically incur substantial amt of systems integration in first 12-24 months as businesses wire data sources into enterprise's data hub
MDM Institute research finds G5000 enterprise spends average of $1.2 million for MDM software solutions - with addt’l investment of 4X in SI services
MDM is one of few remaining growth areas for both software vendors & systems integrators (SIs)
Recent buzz around MDM is rivaled only by intensity with which systems integrators have "found MDM religion"
Given substantial investment businesses undertake with SI partners, this must be scrutinized – not only in effort to
contain costs, but also to insure success of this vital infrastructure investment
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.The-MDM-Institute.com
MDM Phases
Phase 0 Scoping of Phase 1 Limited proof-of-
concept (POC) Requirements capture ROI projection Vendor & product
evaluation Phase 1
Limited deployment within single business division or department for single entity, e.g. customer or product
Phase 2 Going enterprise-wide
with single master entity, e.g. customer, product, supplier, etc.
Phase 2+ Going enterprise-wide
with more than one master entity, e.g. customer, product, &/or supplier, etc.
Phase 3 Extending master data
extra-enterprise-wide with more than one master entity, e.g. customer, product, &/or business partners, e.g. strategic sourcing supply chain, outsourced call centers, etc.

Three Key Business Factors
Status of current incumbent relationships at the executive level
Status of current contracts, and pending contract negotiations (for other projects)
Business size, partnership direction, and ongoing viability of the SI/consultancy
Your organization’s weightings may vary …

Bottom Line: Avoiding the SI Money Pit
SIs are often necessary to sell C-level execs Without C-level support, BUs will find it difficult to
contribute funding & resources necessary to launch an MDM initiative – resulting in status quo with each business unit continuing to address issue at division-level (if at all)

Bottom Line: Avoiding the SI Money Pit
SIs are needed to coordinate IT & Business Readiness & maturity Plan for IT organizational change management to
support MDM efforts Work with business leadership to design & refine the
“future state” business processes associated with new MDM commitments

Bottom Line: Avoiding the SI Money Pit
SIs are needed to help transform IT organizations To a greater degree than traditional application
development initiatives, organizational readiness & acceptance has huge impact on both success & sustainability of MDM initiative
© 2012 The MDM Institute www.The-MDM-Institute.com
Bottom Line: Avoiding the SI Money Pit
After initial development of a MDM system, SIs can help IT & Business by facilitating Ongoing participation in development of business
rules & resolution of master data match/merge issues Ongoing commitment to update both applications &
business processes to leverage core data stored in master data hub

Rx for SI Management Strategies
Acknowledge that SIs are essential to success of majority of MDM & Data governance projects
Recognize that incumbent SIs are no longer so
Identify which SIs are market leaders in your industry & your chosen software technologies
Proactively manage key IT positions
Leverage SIs for their “value add”
Given substantial investment businesses undertake with SI partners, this area must be given scrutiny – not only to contain costs, but to
insure success of this vital infrastructure investment

“Lessons Learned” 1H2012
Promote MDM as essential business strategy with IT deliverables to leverage high-value info used repeatedly across many business processes
Position MDM as enabler of key business activities such as improving customer communication & reporting – rather than an important infrastructure upgrade
Begin MDM projects focused on either customer-centricity or product/service optimization
Plan for multi-entity MDM solutions evolving from “early adopter” status into “competitive business strategy” during 2012-13
