Delivering a Clear Picture of Cost / Benefit ValueA comprehensive roadmap for master data management (MDM) outlines the architectural, technical and organizational requirements of the program. Additionally, a successful MDM roadmap will consider and address multiple disciplines, governance, systems, applications, functional areas and stakeholder groups across the entire enterprise.

Executive support and organizational readiness for MDM are positively affected by a clear, inclusive and forward-looking roadmap. The roadmap demonstrates the current state and desired future state, taking into consideration an evolutionary approach to enterprise-wide change. Stakeholder groups, business processes, existing applications and underlying architectures are all affected by MDM, and a reliable roadmap outlines the potential effects of change and outlines a cost/benefit value for all possible alternatives as MDM evolves.

An effective roadmap will not only outline technology and organizational choices, but will also present a clear picture of the potential operational benefits over time. It outlines a holistic path of your MDM journey.

MDM Roadmap DeliveryWith this service, the Initiate team works with your team to develop a roadmap that includes a comprehensive set of these alternatives and a better understanding of the initiative, costs, timelines and releases. We help your managers and architects develop a roadmap that covers all the MDM roadmap dimensions and ensures successful execution and timely delivery of your MDM implementation.

Initiate consultants start with the roadmap and architecture workshops for architects, managers and business stakeholders at your organization. During these workshops the roadmap and architecture is defined and aligned with the standard and proven MDM methodologies. Together, we define alternative roadmap views that include incremental business benefits, definition of entities and relationships in scope by production release, evolution of the data hub’s architecture styles, and a number of other views.
