Verdantis Material
Master Data ManagementDelivering standardized, de-duplicated
storage/warehousing of a material. Examples: unit of
issue, storage conditions, and packaging dimensions.
Forecasting - Information for predicting material
requirements. Examples: how the material is procured,
forecasting period, and past consumption/usage.
Sales and distribution - Information for sales orders
and pricing. Examples: sales price, minimum order
quantity, and the name of the sales department
responsible for a certain material.
But Material Master Data Management can be a challenging task
High volume of data and multiple languages
Non-uniform Commodity Coding standards
Poorly classified data
Poorly Structured descriptions (inconsistent specifications or Missing specifications)
Incomplete data (missing part numbers or original Vendor names)
The Missing characteristics (attribute) information for items and parts.
Most material master data harmonization projects fail because manual services or generic Master Data Management tools lack the capability and scalability to serve the Global 1000 scenario.
Generic solutions that try to deal with all types of master data, focus more on harmonization & synchronization. They have simple rule-based work flows to ensure data integrity. On the other hand, Verdantis Material MDM is the best-in-its class solution that focuses on the critical master data harmonization process, and keeps it clean on an on-going basis.
Effective Material Master Data Management is critical for improving operational efficiency
Material Harmonize is a fully automated solution for cleansing and enriching historical, material master data. It combines AI-
based, software driven automation, domain expertise and proven methodology to ensure the success of ambitious item
master cleansing and consolidation projects involving millions of items and multiple European and Asian languages. Material
Harmonize automatically classifies, extracts attributes, enriches the data, checks for duplication, and enables superior
discovery of identical/ alternate parts and items.
Key Benefits
High quality and consistency
Scalability
Reduced Total Cost of Project due to automation
Slashes data consolidation project timelines by over 50%
Improved ROI from ERP implementations
Force multiplier of internal teams of 10x
Verdantis Material Master Data ManagementVerdantis' Material MDM solutions – Material Harmonize and Material Integrity – combine automation and domain expertise
to deliver complex material MDM projects on time and on budget, and ensure ongoing data integrity.
