1. What is Enterprise Data Model (EDM)
A holistic, enterprise-level,
implementation independent conceptual or
logical data model providing a common
consistent view of data across the
enterprise.

2. Why EDM
Issues of over-looking EDM and data governance practice:
➢ Data from different systems/sources cannot be integrated to support end-to-end
business processes and management information requirements due to bottom up point
solutions.
➢ Inconsistent business jargons and information/data definition restricting BPM (business
process management) and BI (business intelligence) initiatives.
➢ Inconsistent data definition and duplicated data modeling effort result in project delay
and cost over-run.
➢ Rigid application and data architecture cannot address fast changing business
requirements.

• The same entity
appears in different
Subject Areas or
Systems.
• Different entities in
different Subject
Areas are related.
• Their definitions,
formats and rules
have to be
standardized in
order to support
integration and
derive meaningful
analytics for valid
business decisions.

2. Why EDM
Rigid data structure and data disparity will restrict IT’s agility, so not only
your hardware and software infrastructure, your data base design must
be scalable too, i.e. flexible enough to address the next 5 to 10 years
requirements!

2. Why EDM
Benefits of EDM and data governance:
➢ Enterprise wide data inter-operability
➢ IT projects are on-time and within budget
➢ Faster and more efficient BPM and BI results
➢ IT agility enable business agility

3. Problems of Traditional Top-down Data Management
Approach
• It takes long time, even years, to harvest early results.
• It demands enormous effort to develop a full EDM internally!
• It requires scarce data management and architectural talent which cannot be
developed internally in short time-frame.
• It is difficult for internal IT to keep abreast of all latest technology advance (e.g.
IoT and big data) and understand their impact on business strategies, data
infrastructure, standard and data model.

• Use Agile Method and a hybrid top-down & bottom-up approach to achieve data
management and governance quick-win.
• Off-the-shelf industry specific EDM and world No. 1 data governance solution
(erwin™) allow delivering 1st draft of your own EDM design in weeks.
• Tailored training program to get your staff up and running in short time-frame.
• Low start-up cost (can be rolled out module by module according to customer’s
specific situations, i.e. by individual Subject Area in the EDM)
• Minimal impact on existing IT plan (start from current high-value business critical
projects, no need to re-prioritize your project portfolio).
• Provide Mapping Report for IT to link data model design with business strategies
such that IT is able to engage business users in critical IT decisions, rather than IT
bears the business risk alone.

Can your data structure design represents customers both as
individual and group?

Can your data structure design support the
management of sales pipeline (i.e. customer
life cycle)?

Can your data structure design
support the seamless integration with
BIM Cobie Spreadsheet?

Can your data structure
design support future FM
outsourcing business
strategy?
Outsourcing FM function means much more than just able to issue a work-order to external service provider!!

Use case 1: Pilot data management from a specific subject area or system
1. Use erwin DM
Reverse Engineer
to capture a model
of existing system
2. Compare with
Industry EDM
3. Work with users to
resolve the difference
and decide the to-be
data model
4. Plan for
implementation

Use case 2: New IT Project
1. Extract
corresponding
Subject Area Model
from the Industry
EDM as the draft of
to be model
2. Discuss with users
to refine and
confirm the to-be
system data model
3. Include the confirmed
to-be data model as
requirements in RFP
4. Or as requirement
specification for
inhouse or
external developer
