Corporate Profile

Data Foundations develops and markets innovative enterprise software products to help organizations better manage and benefit from their data assets, in particular, "Shareable Enterprise Data". We use the term Shareable Enterprise Data to include Master Data (such as Product, Customer, Counterparty and Location), Reference Data (such as code sets, hierarchies and vocabularies) and shared metadata -- virtually any data that can be shared within an organization or externally.

Our products and the solutions built around them enable our customers to develop a strategic foundational layer of accurate, consistent and shareable corporate data for use internally across organizational divisions, as well as externally with partner organizations. This foundational layer is critical to the success of major business initiatives, and helps our customers increase business value and agility, improve organizational efficiencies and reduce information technology support costs.

Established in 1998 as a consulting services company focused on data management, Data Foundations transitioned to an enterprise software product company during the next few years. Our first product OneData was conceived and developed as a flexible platform for enterprise data management. First released in 2003, OneData started acquiring customers and gathering positive analyst coverage almost immediately. The analyst firm Gartner included us in its list of "Cool Vendors in Data Management," and the CDI Institute called us a "Leader in Next Generation MDM." Along the way we also won the Deloitte and Touche NJ Fast 50 award for fastest-growing technology companies. Most recently, the analyst firm The Information Difference gave us a top ranking in MDM technology, comparing Data Foundations to 20 other MDM vendors.

Today OneData is a refined and mature product, with a long list of satisfied and referenceable customers, almost all of which are well-known household names. OneData has been proven in the field to meet a variety of business needs such as true multi-domain Master Data Management, global Reference Data Management, product data cleansing and harmonization, customer and counterparty data integration, and building and managing metadata registries.

A representative customer list includes Avon Products, BASF Corporation, Cargill, Chubb, General Electric, Glencore AG, Novartis, Pepsico, the US Environmental Protection Agency, the US Federal Aviation Administration and WellPoint Inc. Corporate headquarters are located in the metro New York City area, with offices in India and the Netherlands. The company markets its products in North America and Europe, and additionally through partners in the rest of the world. Support is available for customers globally with 24-hour coverage.
