4-Phase MDM Migration Process

1

Discovery & Profiling

AI analyzes all source systems to identify master data entities, relationships, and quality issues.

  • Source system analysis
  • Data quality assessment
  • Duplicate detection
  • Relationship mapping
2

Matching & Consolidation

AI-powered matching identifies duplicates and creates golden records with intelligent merge rules.

  • Fuzzy matching algorithms
  • Golden record creation
  • Survivorship rules
  • Conflict resolution
3

Enrichment & Validation

AI enriches master data with external sources and validates against business rules.

  • Data standardization
  • External data enrichment
  • Business rule validation
  • Quality scoring
4

Distribution & Governance

Golden records are distributed to all consuming systems with ongoing governance and stewardship.

  • MDM hub deployment
  • System synchronization
  • Governance workflows
  • Ongoing stewardship

People Also Ask

What is Master Data Management (MDM) migration?

MDM migration is the process of consolidating master data (customers, products, suppliers, locations) from multiple source systems into a single, authoritative source of truth. AI-powered MDM migration uses intelligent matching algorithms to identify duplicates, create golden records, and establish ongoing governance processes to maintain data quality across the enterprise.

How does AI improve MDM migration accuracy?

AI uses advanced fuzzy matching algorithms that can identify duplicates even with variations in spelling, formatting, and data quality. Machine learning models analyze patterns across millions of records to determine match probability, while natural language processing handles name variations and abbreviations. This achieves 99.9% accuracy compared to 85-90% with manual rule-based approaches.

What are golden records in MDM?

Golden records are the single, most accurate and complete version of a master data entity created by consolidating information from multiple sources. AI-powered survivorship rules automatically determine which source system has the most reliable data for each attribute, creating a "best of breed" record that becomes the authoritative source for all downstream systems.

How long does MDM migration take?

AI-powered MDM migration typically takes 4-6 weeks for most enterprises, compared to 6-12 months with traditional approaches. The timeline includes discovery and profiling (1 week), matching and consolidation (2-3 weeks), enrichment and validation (1 week), and distribution setup (1 week). Complex enterprises with 10+ source systems may require 8-10 weeks.

What's the ROI of MDM migration?

MDM migration delivers 75% cost savings through automated matching and consolidation, reducing manual effort by 90%. Additional benefits include improved data quality (99.9% accuracy), faster decision-making with trusted data, reduced operational costs from eliminating duplicate records, better customer experience with unified profiles, and improved compliance with single source of truth for regulatory reporting.
