Emerging Implementation Issues

CDI-MDM Urgency detracting from Data Fundamentals:


• Strong pressure & focus to quickly start CDI mechanics

Data Quality
• CDI-MDM focus causing DQ shortcuts & afterthoughts
• Treat all data same vs treat different data differently

• Accuracy - "Don't Ask, Don't Tell“ vs True Due-Diligence
• 3rd-Party Review – Increasing Interest & More Resistance

• After initial development of a CDI/MDM system, continued support by
BUs is essential & must include:
– Ongoing participation in development of business rules and resolution of
master data match/merge issues

Managing the SI Relationship

• Determining the evaluation criteria for selecting SI partners


for CDI-MDM projects
• Identifying which SIs are market leaders in your industry &
your chosen software technologies
• Managing the SI relationship – esp. avoiding “brain drain” &
inflationary “blended rates”

Why Focus on “SI” Cost Component?

• CDI-MDM projects typically incur substantial amt of systems


integration in first 12-24
12 24 months as businesses wire data sources
into enterprise's data hub
• CDI-MDM Institute research finds G5000 enterprise spends
average of US$1.2 million for CDI-MDM software solutions - with
addt’l investment of 4X in SI services
• CDI-MDM
CDI MDM is one of few remaining growth areas for both software
vendors & systems integrators (SIs)
• Recent buzz around CDI-MDM is rivaled only by intensity with

Post "Phase Zero" Tasks

• Determine the CDI-MDM product short list


• Perform gap analysis to determine which software must be
developed internally & which can be purchased
• Identify a systems integrator (SI) consultancy partner
• Plan for IT organizational change management
• Work with the business leadership to design & refine "future
state" business processes associated with new CDI

Areas Where SIs May Provide Value

• Identify & prioritize business functional requirements


• Recommend build vs. buy
• Provide a solution selection methodology that balances business &
technical requirements
• Develop detailed request for proposal (RFP)
• Evaluate & select the right

Areas Where SI Provides Implementation Value

• Pilot the CDI-MDM solution & application integration


• Develop IT & business user communications in addition to training
materials
• Define & establish user job roles – e.g.,

CDI MDM Institute survey of 50 Global 5000 IT organizations

• BASIC (“anarchy”) – App-centric approach; meets business needs only on project-specific basis
• FOUNDATIONAL (“IT monarchy”) – Policy-driven standardization on technology & methods; common usage of tools
& procedures across projects
• ADVANCED ((“business

monarchy”)) – Rationalized data with data & metadata actively shared in production across
sources
• DISTINCTIVE (“Federalist”) – SOA (modular components), integrated view of compliance requirements, formalized
organization with defined roles & responsibilities, clearly defined metrics, iterative learning cycle

Overall, FSPs are leading the way for non-FSPs

Data Governance Survey Findings

• Large #’s of high-ranking management recognize poor data


governance as a problem
bl
– Yet only 38% have dedicated stewards
– FSPs (50%) are more likely than non-FSPs
non FSPs (30%) to staff F/T
data steward positions

• FSP are 2X as likely


FSPs lik l as non-FSPs
FSP to

Data governance is a prerequisite to efficient & effective


information integration & business intelligence –
two key differentiators in highly
highly-competitive
competitive industries such as FSP

Recommendations

• Data governance is difficult – enterprises need to embrace a


blueprint
p for success
• IT management must understand impact of data governance on
their information integration plans
– All b
businesses
i embrace
b political
liti l structures
t t
– Data governance is necessary to support politics of both centralized &
distributed information integration
– Without firm commitment to corporate data governance,
BU-specific data governance projects run risk of becoming
“yet another master data mart”
• Savvy FSPs begin with data stewardship & business metadata
