Design And Implementation Of Master Data Management System For A Mining Enterprise

With the development of economy and society,as well as the progress of science and technology featuring "Internet +","industrial 4.0","big data" in the past few years,various industries and vertical industries began to make incremental investment in information technology.Mining enterprises became laggards in the wave of informatisation due to their previous extensive management and inadequate IT investment.Therefore,a solid IT foundation is quintessential for mining enterprises.To do that,one of the most fundamental tasks is data standardization,especially for master data.Master data refers to basic data shared among business systems.For example:company code,materials,suppliers,customers,etc.Compared with business data that records business activities and tends to be highly fluctuating,master data features gradual changes.Valuing information technology and managing data as an asset is the current norm for modern enterprises.This dissertation mainly discusses the design and implementation of a master data management system for a mining company.To meet requirements in managing actual master data of the said mining company,a system based on B/S structure is developed with J2EE,WEBSERVICE,HTLM5 and ORACLE database,complying with the company' s data management standards.Unified creation and distribution of master data was enabled to ensure the uniqueness and accuracy in master data encoding.Redundant interfaces developed due to encoding discrepancies between the various business systems and master data were reduced.Information silos also decreased.The system laid a solid foundation for the company's future big data mining and analytics,providing clear and accurate data for its management in decision-making.
