Master data & governance
A dependable foundation for master data.
Shared quality rules, named ownership and review workflows give master data a foundation you can govern. This area of the platform is still growing.
Governance needs more than a policy document.
Master data has many owners and many consumers. Without shared rules and clear ownership, quality drifts back as soon as a cleanup project ends.
DATAshaper gives governance something concrete to work with: rules everyone can see, issues with a named owner, and changes that are reviewed before they are loaded.

Questions about governance.
Is DATAshaper an MDM system?
We do not position it as a full MDM suite today. It provides the quality rules, ownership and review workflows that master data governance depends on, and this area is growing.
Which master data domains can we cover?
Rules are configurable, so you decide. Bruker, for example, covers customer and vendor, material and equipment master data.
