Data governance and master data

The same customer, product, or contract often exists in several systems at once, with different spellings, different fields, and unclear ownership. Bexamo visualizes how the information is created, used, and shared between business processes and IT systems, so governance can start from how things actually are.

What Bexamo shows

Where each information object originates, which systems pass it on, where definitions diverge, and who is responsible for what.

Benefits in information governance

Information gaps and quality problems are found at the source instead of wherever they happen to be discovered. Ownership and responsibility can be established once the flow is visible. And duplicated information can be retired in a planned way, which reduces both risk and maintenance cost.

Activities in governance work

• Information inventory – identify information objects, data sources, and ownership.
• Analysis – map information flows, quality, and dependencies.
• Improvement – establish governance, responsibility, and shared definitions.
• Maintenance – support for continuous data quality and information governance.
