From "No" to Funded: Selling Data Governance
and MDM Inside a Fortune 500 Company

In large-scale enterprises, data initiatives rarely fail because the architecture is flawed. They fail because the business case doesn't survive the C-Suite. For Arrow Electronics, a global supply chain leader ranked 154th on the Fortune 500, closing the gap between data ambition and operational reality required more than just a technical roadmap. It required the strategic discipline to translate 178 major pain points into a narrative leadership could fund.

When backed by a resilient business case, the right technology can transform a company from being built around its silos to being built around its data. Join Molly Engleking, Global Director of Data Governance at Arrow, for the candid story of how her team went from a standing start to a fully funded, global data modernization project to successfully master Customer, Vendor and Product data.

You'll learn:

  • How to frame technical debt in a way that makes investment in data an urgent business priority
  • Practical strategies for interpreting a "no" from leadership and returning with a stronger, more aligned ask for funding
  • How implementing Informatica IDMC provided the foundation for a business glossary and data lineage that turned the plan into a deliverable reality
  • Why interpersonal relationships across the business are the #1 factor in driving global adoption

Join this live event on Thursday, June 4, at 11 a.m. PT / 2 p.m. ET.
