Master Data Governance: MDM Governance and Operating Model for Ronal Group

Abstract

Ronal Group is a globally operating production company for the automobile industry, with a rather complex and historically grown IT infrastructure. In 2015 Ronal Group launched a master data management initiative, that aims at harmonising data throughout the business units to continuously improve the data quality. Consequently, the need for a comprehensive master data governance concept was recognised. The goal of this bachelor thesis is to recommend a scalable operating model for Master Data Management with defined roles, responsibilities, and tools that are business unit neutral and applicable group-wide.
