BIDM Methodology
Business Integrated Data Migration brings business owners, data owners and technical delivery teams into one coordinated migration process.
Business Integrated Data Migration
Turning migration into a shared business process
The BIDM methodology focuses on establishing a collaborative partnership between the Client and DataMC during data migration projects. By involving the customer and business owners from the outset, we transform data migration from a purely technical challenge into a more inclusive process.
Business owners are often relegated to the background while IT teams are given ownership of the migration. BIDM was developed after seeing that pattern create disengagement and reduce control over outcomes.
What BIDM seeks to do
- Involve business and data owners right from the start
- Maintain robust communication between business and technical teams
- Prevent or address issues that could put the project at risk
Who is involved
- Data owners
- IT resources
- Support staff
Approach
A low-stress implementation model
The BIDM approach prioritizes the integration of business and data owners from the beginning, ensuring their involvement through to the final deployment. DataMC is dedicated to fostering unity among the people who need to make the migration succeed.
Adhering to the methodology principles helps create a cohesive implementation with clearer communication, stronger ownership and reduced operational risk.
All DataMC expert resources and associates are proficient in employing the BIDM methodology.
