Business Challenges that can be
Addressed with Master Data Governance
Procurement
Inconsistent supplier and material data across procure-to-pay processes increase costs
Difficulty in tracking contract compliance from fragmented supplier data increases risk
Lack of visibility into supplier relationships hinders opportunities for savings
Supply chain management
Lack of transparency relating to suppliers and materials makes it harder to detect and respond to changing supply and demand dynamics in global networks, as well as responsively and effectively deal with supply chain events (like recalls)
Difficult in sharing up-to-date supplier and material data limits collaboration in a global manufacturing network
Finance
Lack of transparency and ability to streamline financial operations
Manual efforts to reconcile financial accounts drives down efficiency
Greater risk of noncompliance
How can I leverage my
global scale in purchasing?
How can I increase my
supply chain efficiency?
How can I meet compliance,
transparency, and speed
in financial close?

Business Challenges that can be
Addressed with Master Data Governance
Customer Relationship
Management
Lack of insight from all customer interactions hinders marketing and sales activities
Customer and product hierarchy inconsistencies in demand planning and revenue forecasts affect sales effectiveness
Lack of a complete, consistent, and correct customer view hurts customer service experience and affects customer satisfaction and loyalty
Manufacturing/Product
Lifecycle Management
No single view of material in enterprise planning and control processes affects downstream plant-level operations and manufacturing execution
Lack of smooth integration between engineering and manufacturing results in unstable product data causing issues with production quality and increased product costs, as well as slower time to market
How can I accelerate
order to cash?
How can I accelerate new
product introduction?
