5 Three Rings of Information Governance 1. "Stable Core" Systems of Record 2. "Dynamic Applications" Systems of Differentiation 3. "Fluid Services" Systems of Innovation

6 How We Organize Information Is Not the Same as How Users "See" or Use Information Systems of innovation. Unique, next practice: - Someone else's master data? - Other data for each process/apps.

7 Top 5 Reasons Why Manufacturers Need Master Data Management 1. Master data has many masters 2. Effective new product development and introduction (NPD&I) requires unstructured collaboration 3. Complex manufacturing chains make product data harder to track 4. Too costly and complex to orchestrate different enterprise applications 5. High business risks and costs of product data errors

8 Key Issues 1. Why will master data management (MDM) play a more pivotal role in the manufacturing IT landscape? 2. What are the software tradeoffs for manufacturers seeking to enable MDM? 3. What are manufacturers' top priorities to maximize chances of successful MDM implementation?

10 Four Most Likely Ways Manufacturers Manage Their Master Data Spreadsheets ERP-based MDM (E.g., Microsoft) Where Manufacturers Manage Master Data (E.g., Oracle, SAP) MFG Specialty MDM (e.g., manage BOMs) (E.g., Aras, Arena Solutions, Eurostep) Source: Gartner, 2014 Pure play MDM (E.g., Riversand, Stibo Systems)

12 The Four MDM Options Serve Different Manufacturer Needs Software Option When to Use When Not to Use Spreadsheets (E.g., Microsoft) Quick niche evaluations Integrated with other MDM software System of record needed To understand data structure ERP-based MDM (E.g., Oracle, SAP) MFG Specialty MDM (E.g., Aras, Arena Solutions, Eurostep) With other business applications from the same vendor Product-related data across the product lifecycle When ERP and PLM software come from a different vendor Low budget initiatives When master data goes beyond product data (e.g. HR data, financial records) Pureplay MDM (E.g., Riversand, Stibo) Heterogeneous data (e.g. customers, HR, financial, product) Multiple vendor business apps Low budget initiatives that specialty MDM can address Source: Gartner, 2014

14 Align MDM Strategies to Focus Objectives With the Greatest Payback Systematic Mapping of IT Planning to Business Goals Mindset Layer Toolset Layer Focus Priorities Responsible Primaries What business philosophy drives MDM priorities? How does MDM align with business objectives? What organizational changes are needed? What cross-enterprise process changes are needed? Which business stakeholders should participate? What are the data-driven processes requiring MDM? How must MDM interface with other applications? What data is needed? How should MDM functionality be prioritized? Which IT stakeholders should be involved? Source: Gartner, 2014

16 Recommendations IT strategists should adopt MDM as a data hub for content authored in different business applications CIOs should insist that users replace spreadsheets with enterprise MDM for data with long life cycles Executives should prioritize focused MDM projects with high impact as an early program: - E.g., Managing BOMs, managing product costing data Executives need to invest in business transformation and user training to enable successful MDM
