What is the Operationally-Sound Master Data Management course about?
Multi-site operations often evolve from independent launches, leading to fragmented data models, mismatched taxonomies, and manual reconciliation. These inefficiencies compound during audits, reporting cycles, and system integrations, draining time and weakening trust in insights.
