Master Data Integrity
Is your Material Master Data helping or hurting your business?
Ask yourself these five critical questions about the material master data in your EAM or CMMS:
- When cataloguing a new part or material, can you confirm if the item already exists by simply entering the manufacturer part number?
- Is there a documented system for naming and specifying materials?
- Are classifications being used effectively to group materials?
- Does a robust process exist to prevent duplication?
- Can you rely on descriptions and data fields to positively identify items?
If you answered “no” to one or more, you’re not alone – and the cost of ignoring these gaps is higher than you think.
The Hidden Cost of Poor Master Data
Studies show that poor material master controls lead to:
- 15–20% excess inventory from duplication and overstocking
- Stock outs that disrupt operations
- Procurement errors – up to 70% caused by bad data
- Zero-turn inventory tying up working capital
- Maintenance delays due to misidentified parts
This is all waste – and it directly impacts your bottom line.
Imagine a Better Way
What if your system contained controlled, accurate, and reliable data to support every business decision?
What if it was backed by a governance framework, standards, and documented procedures to maintain data quality?
Master data quality is often overlooked, yet it forms the central nervous system of your operation. Without it, even the best ERP or CMMS cannot deliver value.
