Enterprise Information Management

process category

Enterprise Information Management (EIM) is the business activity of creating, cleansing, integrating, managing, governing, and archiving structured and unstructured data used by an organization.  EIM can help organizations integrate data and reconcile business information in heterogeneous IT landscapes and cross-company business networks to create a trusted data foundation for operational, analytical, and governance initiatives.  SAP delivers solutions from different product families (SAP NetWeaver, SAP BusinessObjects IM, and SAP solution extensions) that support EIM activities such as  enterprise data warehouse (EDW) management, master data management, data integration and data quality management, metadata management, information lifecycle management, and enterprise content management. By managing information assets effectively, organizations can minimize data integration efforts, streamline end-to-end business process execution, and gain well-founded business insight.
