MINI-TRACK DESCRIPTION

Master data management is referred to as an application-independent function which describes and manages the business data resource in an organization. It ensures high quality of master data by providing guidelines for its management and it creates a common view on the data. Recently, master data management has received much attention from business. A major reason for this is the important role high-quality master data plays with regard to a number of business drivers. Among them are compliance to regulatory requirements, integrated customer management and the need of a “single source of the truth” for company-wide reporting purposes. Despite the relevance of master data quality, current efforts in practice leave much to be desired. Moreover, the topic has been discussed in the information systems (IS) research area to a marginal extent only so far.

The proposed mini-track addresses this gap and aims at giving a forum for novel concepts and research work in the following areas:

The mini-track welcomes innovative research papers from both the academic and the practitioners’ community.
