Yamaha Motor turbocharges global data strategy with Informatica

Yamaha Motor is transforming fragmented global data into a unified asset by partnering with Informatica to boost decision-making, streamline operations and accelerate enterprise-wide digital transformation. Toyoto Ono, Chief General Manager, IT Center at Yamaha Motor, offers a‘ behind the scenes’ take of the implementation and reveals how the initiative is driving productivity gains across the organisation.

Y amaha Motor, a global leader in transportation equipment manufacturing, has implemented Informatica’ s AI-powered Master Data Management( MDM) solution as part of the customer’ s digital transformation strategy.

Yamaha Motor was faced with challenges of managing extensive and complex data and siloed systems across its manufacturing and business operations in different global locations. Furthermore, Yamaha Motor’ s global ERP systems required the unification of data standards and data harmonisation from instances and contents which differ from region to region and the inability to share the same master data to each group company’ s ERP systems and business systems further hindered operational efficiency of the businesses.
To overcome the challenges, Yamaha Motor is implementing Informatica ' s industryleading multidomain MDM SaaS solution, powered by Informatica’ s CLAIRE AI engine, to streamline, centralise and automate cross-domain and cross-departmental data assets
