SAP Migration Cockpit and tools for maintenance of data

How WaterWipes introduced governed, automated data processes using the Maextro MDM tool on SAP BTP.
WaterWipes is the manufacturer of the world’s purest baby wipes, trusted by parents and healthcare professionals across more than 50 countries - including neonatal intensive care units. For a brand built on safety and purity, data accuracy and compliance are not optional; they are fundamental.
Following rapid global growth and a major SAP transformation to S/4HANA, IBP, Datasphere, and SAC, WaterWipes identified a critical gap: SAP data governance had not been embedded into the new landscape. What began as a technical oversight quickly became a business risk - one with direct implications for product safety, regulatory compliance, and customer trust.
In this session,
Bluestonex will share how WaterWipes addressed this challenge by introducing governed, automated data processes using Maextro MDM tool on SAP BTP. Attendees will learn how WaterWipes established end‑to‑end data governance at speed, reduced operational risk, and created a scalable foundation for growth.
The session will also explore how this journey continues today - extending data management into high‑risk domains such as pricing, product lifecycle management (PLM), and further reducing reliance on manual processes.
Join us to see how clean, trusted data became a strategic asset for WaterWipes - and how SAP customers can apply the same principles to accelerate efficiency and reduce risk in their businesses while preparing for what’s next.
The Importance of Data Governance and Why it is Critical to Sustainable Master Data Success
Data governance is a foundational element of successful master data management - yet many practitioners struggle to define what it truly means and how to put it into practice.
This practical, focused session cuts through the theory to explain what data governance really involves and how to implement it effectively within your organisation.
This session will cover:
- What data governance actually is and why it is critical to sustainable master data success
- The three core components of effective data governance:
- Data inventory – defining the in-scope data landscape and identifying what matters most
- Governance organisation and decision-making – clarifying roles, accountability, and how decisions are made
- Rules and controls – establishing the standards that manage and cleanse data, including alignment with SAP MDG
- Where to start – practical first steps to help practitioners move from concept to action
Delegates will leave with a clear, practical understanding of data governance and a structured starting point for their journey toward data mastery.
