On Tuesday December 8th, our colleagues Roger Wegh and Mark Cartigny presented the webinar “The Business Challenges of Master Data Management!”. Together with Lenno Maris of Friesland Campina, the various challenges faced by many companies in the field of MDM were discussed in more detail. 

Due to the increased importance of digitization and data-driven decision-making, Master Data Management is now high on the agenda of many organizations. Now that more attention is being paid to (master) data, it appears that it is often spread over many sources and departments. This results in incomplete data and inconsistencies. In short, the quality of data is often insufficient. By improving the quality of master data, disruptions in business processes can be prevented and the reliability of information provision can be increased. In addition, the quality of master data is crucial now that data analytics is gaining ground. Getting the data quality up to standard appears to be very difficult in practice. The complexity of the growing amount of data results in both organizational and technical challenges. Organizations will therefore have to use the right means to be successful. In addition to having a clear vision and strategy, it is important to gain insight into the most important business drivers (objectives) and challenges in the field of data management for your organization. After all, then you know which bridge to build.
