Master Data Management Benefits
Posted on January 29, 2010
“An MDM layer enables companies to realize internal efficiencies by reducing the cost and complexity of processes that use master data (through fewer code clashes, less data duplication, better control over business processes, and so on). It reduces manual translation and analysis to improve repeatability and speed to insight. An MDM layer improves the ability to share, consolidate, and analyze business information quickly, both globally and regionally. And it makes it possible to rapidly assemble new, composite applications (software that combines the elements of a business activity in a coordinated application and user interface) out of accurate master information and reusable business processes. Other MDM benefits include increased revenue (for example, from providing more accurate and comprehensive information to the right customers at point of sale) and regulatory compliance.”
