Andrew WhiteThe focus of business process management initiatives and service-oriented application development initiatives are to create a more-agile and reusable set of processes in the form of services. But, the majority of services will only be as agile as the availability and consistency of data used by them. This will require a focus on the design and management of an agile information-driven architecture where master data management disciplines can be a key contributor.
Key Issues:
  • What is impact does service-oriented architecture has on the agility and management of the information architecture?
  • How will organizations leverage the ability of master data management disciplines to capture and track data rules and specifications for the next generation of processes and what best practices will they use to implement them?
  • What must organizations do in terms of transitioning people, process and technology to be able to ensure adequate levels of information agility for business process redesign initiatives?
