Building a Master Data Organisation Across 9 Data Domains and 60+ Stakeholders – Rooted in Business Benefits
Gavin Mander, Head of Data Services, Morrisons Supermarkets
Ralf Teschner, Global Information Governance Lead, Capgemini
Morrisons is a Yorkshire food retailer serving customers across the UK in almost 500 stores and an on-line home delivery service. Uniquely, they source and process most of the fresh food they sell through their own manufacturing facilities. They serve over 11 million customers per week with over 110,000 colleagues.
Two years ago Morrisons launched an ambitious Master Data programme to improve a data management capability which was struggling to engage with business stakeholders. They started by prioritising Product, Supplier and Location Data Domains and have subsequently moved across a further six domains: Customer, People, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Finance and Wholesale.
They have created a Data Management organisation with Management Board sponsorship which regularly engages with upwards of 60 business stakeholders. There is a small central Data Management team working closely with business stakeholders who have the freedom to make the right data decisions for their organisation.
The sustained level of engagement has largely been driven by a continued focus on delivering significant business benefit – they have listened hard and responded to what is important to their stakeholders. The Data Management improvements they’re making are directly contributing to Morrisons strategic goals of being more competitive, serving customers better and simplifying and speeding up the organisation.
Alongside this Morrisons have a sustainable and credible methodology; this started with a focus on teamwork by putting in place the right people with the right processes and, as they have matured, investment in technology such as Master Data Management and Data Quality tools.
Summary:
- How Morrisons secured and maintained active engagement across a large number of data domains and upwards of 60 business stakeholders
- How they worked with a large consultancy to put in place a self-sufficient and sustainable Data Management organisation
- Challenges they had measuring business value being delivered
Jacobs Douwe Egberts
Streamlining Data Management Processes Using Lean Methodology
Gerard Bartley, Manager Global Master Data, Jacobs Douwe Egberts
As a Lean Green Belt, Gerard has been able to apply Lean methodology to his data management processes to drive efficiency and reduce time/cost.
What is Lean? It is a set of techniques to:
- Map out processes
- Identify potential areas of inefficiency (“waste”)
- Deliver process improvements
Whilst originally developed for the automotive industry, many of the Lean techniques can be applied to services such as data management. In effect, from the start of a change request to the end point, we can look at each step of that in turn, each activity, each human touch and see if it can be done better. Lean gives us a set of tools and techniques for analysis and improvement.
Delegates will takeaway:
- An understanding of what Lean is
- Knowledge of techniques to assess processes
- A set of techniques to build improvements
Dwr Cymru Welsh Water
Rollout and Sustain Data Governance
Natalie Jakomis, Head of Data & Ben Evans, Data Governance Manager, Dwr Cymru Welsh Water
There needs to be a conscious effort to maintain ‘sustaining’ data governance. Rollout and sustain is not the last phase of a linear data governance process, but instead is a final step in a life-cycle. It is also never ending. Like data governance itself, the rollout and sustain phase of Welsh Waters Data Governance Programme represents the day-to-day activities.
Learn about the rollout and sustain activity Welsh Water are executing to ensure that everyone across the business understands how they are affected by Data Governance and therefore do things differently. Including:
- Adopting a data governance operating model and implementing the
right delivery approach, so data governance becomes business as
usual - Collecting the right metrics, and reporting on success
- Socialising and embedding data governance as a behaviour
- Climbing the maturity curve
- Being sensitive to what is really happening versus what is desired to
happen

The Pensions Regulator
Determining the Value of our Data
Dr. Johanna Hutchinson, Head of Data, The Pensions Regulator
Whilst our business partners pivot between the highs and lows of the hype curve on their data journey, the data team are tasked with steering the business towards where the data can have the most impact. The value of data differs by business and indeed by business area as does the impact that it can have. But where is the greatest value to the data we hold? Is it always in the profit margins; efficiency and increasing sales? What’s the true value of data which runs public services, identifies criminals, gives greater insight on a sector and manages our personal records? How can we find this for our organisation and how do we lead the organisation to resource and invest across a profile of high impact data-driven initiatives.
- Innovating – In search of data to add value
- Learning where true value lies in the business
- Landing this work back into the business

EDM COUNCIL
About the EDM Council
The EDM Council is a neutral business forum founded by the financial industry to elevate the practice of data management as a business and operational priority. The prime directive is to ensure that all consumers (business and regulatory) have trust and confidence that data is precisely what is expected without the need for manual recalculation or multiple data transformations. There are four programs of the Council:
• Data Content Standards (FIBO): the standards-based infrastructure needed for operational management (identification, semantic language of the contract, classification). We own the industry ontology for financial instruments and entity relationships and make it available as an open source standard
• Data Management Best Practices (DCAM): the science and discipline of data management from a practical perspective (data management maturity, data quality, benchmarking).
• Data Implications of Regulation: translating the legislative objectives of transparency, financial stability, compressed clearing and cross-asset market surveillance into regulatory objectives and practical reporting requirements.
• Business Network: global meeting ground, CDO Forum and mechanism for sustainable business relationships
There are 135 corporate members of the Council (http://www.edmcouncil.org/councilmembers). We are governed by a board of 24 (http://www.edmcouncil.org/board). For more information visit www.edmcouncil.org.
