Overview of PPDM 3.8

1 Copyright 2012, PPDM Association. All Rights Reserved

 LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Review and discuss PPDM data model subject areas

• 40 Business Modules
• 13 Support Modules

• Discuss how the design of the PPDM data model

works to result in a business centric, business driven
model that is practical and useful

 MODEL DESIGN

Main design focus is on business driven requirements

• How does the data represent the business?
- Based on business requirements collected by workgroups
- Not IT requirements!

• PPDM is not application driven (designed for a specific application)

Key objectives
• Support best data management practices
• Keep the model as easy to understand as possible
- Some business knowledge is critical!

• Allow users to implement a subset of the data model

- Control the spaghetti effect

• Allow users to manage data as the business requires through the life cycle
(all the detail)
• Support a few important business variations (not everyone has the same
business requirements)
