Things that are worth doing, often take time, and the same is perfectly true about data governance and the implementation of master data management as part of a more broadly focused data management program. It isn’t something you do once, and then you’re done.
Over time your organization will determine that the true value of data is often hidden in how it is used in ways that were perhaps less obvious at the outset.

Depending on the nature of your business and the relationship that you have with your customers you may have several different types of customer master data that you choose to manage and maintain. There are other types of customer data that you may need to manage too, data types that you don’t necessarily always think of as master data but which may benefit from being stored and retrieved centrally as required.
