Master Data Management

Master Data Management (MDM)

Process Workflow Automation (PWA) is the end-to-end orchestration of business activities through intelligent, automated workflows. It replaces fragmented, manual tasks with coordinated, rule-based automation—ensuring processes are consistent, auditable, and aligned with strategic objectives.

At its core, PWA connects people, data, and systems across the enterprise, eliminating silos and inefficiencies that plague legacy operations. By automating routine processes, organizations can dramatically reduce cycle times, improve compliance, and enable more productive, empowered teams.

Core Features of MDM

Enterprise-Wide Consolidation

Harmonizes data across departments, systems, plants, and business units.

Data Accuracy & Consistency

Ensures information is reliable and accessible when and where it’s needed.

Informed Decision-Making

Supports strategic and operational decisions with high-quality data.

MDM Core Components

Data Integration

Aggregates and harmonizes data from multiple internal and external sources.

Data Quality Management

De-duplicates, cleanses, and validates records.

Data Governance

Defines rules, roles, and responsibilities to enforce standards and policies.

Data Maintenance:

Continuously updates and validates data to maintain accuracy over time.

Master Data Domains

MDM focuses on the key domains that are reused across processes and systems

Customer Data

Contact info, account numbers, company hierarchies, preferences.

Product Data

SKUs, descriptions, pricing, units, and lifecycle status.

Supplier Data

Legal entity details, compliance documents, bank info, risk ratings.

Employee Data

HR records, roles, reporting structures, locations.

Location Data:

Office, warehouse, and store addresses with geo-identifiers.

Financial Master Data:

Chart of accounts, cost centers, budgeting categories.

Reference Data

Standard lists such as currencies, units of measure, industry codes.

Challenges with Traditional MDM Platforms

Despite the promise of MDM, many platforms fall short in practice

Delayed Cleansing:

Data validation happens after ingestion, leading to poor-quality records in core systems.

Limited Workflow Automation

Lifecycle management often relies on external tools or manual processes.

Lack of Upfront Validation

Most tools don’t verify or authenticate data before it enters business systems.

Rigid Architecture

Legacy platforms lack flexibility to adapt to evolving tech and business needs.

Poor External Integration

Many platforms struggle to support regional rules or real-time API integrations at scale.

The Manch Difference – Rethinking MDM

Historically, MDM has been reactive—cleaning up data after it’s been collected. This outdated approach leads to:

Constant cleanup and reconciliation
High operational costs
Limited success due to lack of source context

Soltec and Manch offer a new approach

First Time Right
Right at the Source
Governance by Design

With Manch, clean and validated data is captured from the beginning—streamlining downstream systems and eliminating costly rework.
