IT landscapes in most companies are characterized by a multitude of disparate IT systems, enterprise applications and technologies. Implementing a multi-domain master data management strategy within the enterprise is a complex and long-term process.

• Complex because it affects multiple levels of an organization, business processes, architectural aspects and corporate culture, and results in far-reaching changes.

• And long-term because the - sometimes drastic - changes are not always easy to implement. There may be cultural, regulatory, technical, or business reasons for holding on to existing systems when shifting from distributed to integrated data domains and workflows.

However, reliable master data is the key to a data-driven, flexible organization and should be considered a corporate asset. Effective master data management requires a professional infrastructure.
