DATA QUALITY & GOVERNANCE

Keep the records behind every workflow clean and controlled

Govern customer, product, warehouse and operational reference data from request and diagnostic review through approval, mapping, release and verification.

Master Data Governance workflow from item or customer request through validation, duplicate control, stewardship, delegated approval, controlled release and acknowledged Tally master write-back

Governed requests and validation
Duplicate and identity control
Cross-company mapping and x-ref
Warehouse and scan reference masters

BUSINESS PROBLEM

Small data defects become large operational interruptions.

Duplicate identities, incomplete records, inconsistent company mappings and informal warehouse reference data often surface only when an order, receipt, transfer, scan or posting is already blocked.

WHAT IT DOES

What it does

REQUEST & IDENTIFY

Governed requests and validationStructure create, change and remediation requests, validate required fields and retain the active policy context.
Duplicate and identity controlSearch existing records, explain candidate matches and govern keep-separate, link, merge and survivor decisions.

MAP & PROTECT

Cross-company mapping and x-refMaintain canonical item identity across company-specific SKUs, descriptions, warehouses and controlled cross-reference records.
Warehouse and scan reference mastersGovern hierarchy, bins, default locations, barcode aliases, package types and other operational reference data.

APPROVE & RELEASE

Diagnostics and protected downstream workSurface source-data defects, protect affected transactions and verify readiness after correction or synchronisation.
Approval, release and auditRoute sensitive changes within authority, release approved outcomes safely and preserve complete decision history.

PRODUCT EXPERIENCE

See governance work before it becomes operational disruption.

Bring request, diagnostic, approval and release posture into one governed view so owners can see risk and act before downstream work is disrupted.

MDG CONTROL TOWER

Requests, diagnostics and downstream risk in one queue

Bring master-data changes, duplicate checks, approvals and blocking issues together so stewards can act before operational work is disrupted.

Request, diagnostic and approval postureOpen requests, stewardship work, approvals and verified outcomes remain visible together.
Duplicate, held and release-risk visibilityIdentity conflicts, blocking diagnostics, held work and failed releases remain explicit.
Governed queue with owner, state and next actionEvery active item shows accountable ownership, current state and the next governed action.

OPERATING MODEL

One governed identity across dependent workflows.

Requests, duplicate evidence, mappings, stewardship and release checks meet around a trusted record rather than a disconnected ticket chain.

WHAT CHANGES WITH PRISM

From fragmented record changes to governed operational readiness

Prism creates one governed front door for item and customer changes, applying validation, duplicate control, stewardship, approval and controlled Tally write-back before records become operationally ready.

Master Data Governance without and with Prism
Without Prism	With Prism
Changes requested through messages	Structured request with visible status
Record created before duplicate check	Identity review before release
Naming and mandatory detail vary by person	Standards and validation applied consistently
Different companies are assumed to use the same SKU	Governed company mapping and cross-reference identity
Local bin and barcode differences break execution	Governed hierarchy, bin masters and approved aliases
A source-data issue looks like a Prism failure	Diagnostics, approval, release and remediation history stay connected

WHERE IT FITS

Shared data standards beneath every controlled workflow

Govern the quality, hierarchy, stewardship and lifecycle of the master data that orders, warehouses, procurement and finance all depend on.
