We use it as a software solution which helps us in managing our master data in a centralized way. As master data is a combination of many other data such as consumer data, product data and employee data. Master data is very difficult to comprehend so SAP Master Data Governance helps us to ensure data quality and integrity.

Business problem: Master data is not centralized but rather in different systems, which causes inconsistencies and difficulties to manage business objects properly.
SAP Master Data Governance has enabled the centralized governance of master data we are aiming for.
Scope: BPs, CoA, Cost centers, profit centers among others.

SAP Master Data Governance was implemented to control the master data governance for material, customer, and vendor. It was initially implemented for Brazil and then rolled out to the USA and Mexico. The main problems were inefficient governance process, bad master data quality, and lack of visibility and control. There was also a big challenge for managing MRO and non-MRO material in the United States with a very complex requirement of description generation.

In my experience, SAP Master Data Governance is very helpful in managing master data since it gives more storage space for data, which helps to minimize duplicate data and data discrepancies. benefits of managing master data centrally. I think SAP Master Data Governance is highly useful for managing reference data, data duplication and transfer to new resources, general data management challenges, and team organization. It used to be tough to keep things consistent across many departments in our business, but with this platform, communication is straightforward, and we have already standardized our procedures and language. For us, SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) is a useful data analytics production solution; data reporting is exceptionally accurate; project data management is superb; and data transmission is lightning quick.
