What do we have? Inadequate data quality and lack of data Data is system specific, and not shared between processes Redundant reporting of data Inaccessible data (blueprint, PDF) No common conceptual model No common structure (classification system) Important system integrations are missing And more No life cycle perspective! What do we want? Well structured high quality objectified master data in a lifecycle perspective! 4

Two different life cycle stages The lifecycle phases of the products or the constructions Concept Development Production Operative phase Decommission The lifecycle phases of the infrastructure facility Concept Development Production Operate and Maintain Decommission Planning Designing Constructing Use and maintaining Dispose/Demolish 9
Challenges The introduction of a lifecycle perspective into the organization Benefits are known and understood, changing daily operations to reap the benefits is difficult. Need to implement process oriented operations in order to get away from data management per system. Accept object oriented system based information as the original instead of blueprints. The introduction of a permanent ID (reference-id) for the infrastructure facility-object. Connecting data from different perspectives and stages of the life cycle to the same objects. The organization has to agree on common terminology Need acceptance and implementation of standardised external classification system. 10
