ECCMA Master Data Validator
A web-based application to manage the collection and verification of your master data, ECCMA’s Master Data Validator
complements and enhances ERP and Master Data Management applications, and enhances the Requisition to Delivery process.
It enables the collection and validation of standardized product/service master data direct from your suppliers.
ECCMA Master Data Validator
ECCMA Master Data Validator (eMDV) delivers a sophisticated solution for two key business requirements:
- Highly advanced, ISO standards-compliant Cataloging of master data
- Automated data collection, verification and validation of item data from suppliers/manufacturers.
Used by Cataloging Teams, Category Managers and Master Data Managers in some the world’s largest companies, ECCMA Master Data Validator (eMDV) complements and enhances ERP and Master Data Management applications. In your company it can ensure that approved, structured, highly specified and validated master data on products (materials), services and suppliers is available to Requisitioners, Buyers and Inventory Managers using one or more or your ERP applications.
Simple, structured, standardized cataloging
Designed to simplify and accelerate Supplier onboarding and the creation of new Catalog Items, eMDV acts as the preliminary Quality and Verification filter before supplier or product data enters your ERP systems for use within the Requisition to Delivery process and Inventory management. Using eMDV, ISO 8000-compliant data quality is embedded as part of your workflow.
ECCMA Master Data Validator enables a consolidated material and service catalog to
- centralize and simplify Item and Supplier master data visibility and standardization
- improve Item visibility across multiple, disparate and disconnected ERP systems
- avoid the need for future data cleansing.
It equips your Requisitioners with the capabilities they want:
And it equips your Procurement Team or Shared Services with control over templates, dictionary, description rules that ensure consistent descriptions, verified directly by suppliers.
Validated item data direct from suppliers/manufacturers
Instead of relying on multiple intermediary platforms to source item data, ECCMA Master Data Validator (eMDV) enables direct sourcing of manufacturer/supplier data, faster and at a significantly lower cost than traditional cataloging methods. The process has been extensively market-tested and demonstrates impressive results.
Through ECCMA Master Data Validator, suppliers have the ability to automatically respond to your requests for item data validation or missing item data. You leverage the manufacturer or supplier’s expertise in their own products to directly improve your data quality. ECCMA Master Data Validator manages and tracks automated digital supplier engagement, both for onboarding and ongoing procurement processes.
Productivity increases because eMDV enables effective, structured communication between your Procurement Team and Requisitioners, and between your Procurement Team and Suppliers. It simplifies the Requisitioner’s work and ensures your Procurement or Shared Services Team applies the required policy and practice controls to master data.
Standardized, interoperable data across your supply chain operations
ECCMA Master Data Validator (eMDV) is based on the ISO 8000 and ISO 22745 standards, which embed data quality and portability within your procurement master data. ECCMA Master Data Validator is linked to the ECCMA Open Technical Dictionary (eOTD) for ISO standards compliance, and the ECCMA Data Requirements Registry (eDRR) enabling access to 20,000+ item templates spanning all major procurement categories.
Greater control through enhanced master data
