VALUE AND BENEFITS
SIERRA CREEK CONSULTINGValue Through Governed DataTM Copyright 2014 by Sierra Creek Consulting
Master Data Management Benefits
Why Care about Data?
Data Decays at a rate of 2% to 4% per month (industry estimates) which can impact mail deliverability, email campaigns, sales follow-up
calls, record completeness
“More than half of US companies work with unreliable contact data”, 2013 NetProspex Marketing Data Benchmark Report
“The cost of bad data could be as much as 15 to 20% of corporate operating revenues”, D&B
“A CRM with bad data is like a pair of glasses with an outdated prescription: they’re expensive, clunky, and keep you from seeing
opportunities until it’s too late”. D&B
Quality Data is critical for business success
• Improves customer perception and customer experience
• Decreases costs due to rework
• Increases revenue by providing trustworthy data to make business decisions, complete
transactions, leverage business opportunities, and drive improvements in lead
generation

Before MDM Customer Data at NCR ...
• Was not well defined
• had decentralized method of data creation
• had the least-defined governance and rules
A
- Had over 500,000 customer records, but business said there should
only be 1,000 customers
- 20,000 customer accounts were already marked as ‘inactive’
- 350,000 customer accounts had not been used for any transactions
in the previous three years
- 40,000 customer accounts had no revenue
- 10,000 customer accounts could be grouped into 1,000 customers
which represented 92% of our revenues
A Consistent Definition of “Customer” is needed
