Maximize Endur Performance Through Smart Data Governance

In the high-stakes world of energy trading and risk management, data is more than a resource, it’s a strategic advantage. Endur empowers organizations to tackle complex commodity value chains with exceptional flexibility and customization. However, this flexibility can come at a cost; inefficiencies, technical debt, and data inconsistencies that disrupt operations and increase regulatory and financial risks.

Value Creed transforms these challenges into opportunities through our Understand, Protect, & Curate framework. This modern approach to data governance ensures organizations can harness Endur’s full potential while maintaining the efficiency, consistency, and compliance needed to excel in a dynamic market.

Addressing Challenges in Endur Data Management

Managing data within Endur comes with unique challenges that can impact efficiency and reliability, emphasizing the need for robust governance. A structured, proactive approach to Endur data governance is essential to overcoming the below challenges, ensuring operational efficiency, system reliability, and scalability for future growth.

Data Inconsistencies

Misaligned master and reference data, such as mismatched payment dates or pricing models, lead to errors and inefficiencies across systems.

Integration Gaps

Poor alignment between Endur and other systems creates discrepancies in cashflows, accounting data, and logistics positions.

Customization Overload

Excessive, uncoordinated customizations generate technical debt, increasing system complexity and reducing performance.

Lack of Transparency

Without clear data lineage or cataloging, teams struggle to understand dependencies, resulting in operational misalignments.

Upgrade Inefficiencies

Ineffective governance during system upgrades causes delays, high costs, and dependency challenges.

Security Risks

Weak access controls leave sensitive data, such as portfolio details, vulnerable to breaches.

Our Approach to Endur Data Governance

By implementing data quality management, seamless integration, and master data governance, organizations take essential steps to protect their data integrity. These measures not only ensure accuracy and consistency but also safeguard critical business processes, preventing errors and minimizing risks while maintaining reliable, secure data across systems.

Continuously monitor critical parameters such as payment dates, pricing models, and settlement prices to enhance accuracy and reliability.

Ensure seamless alignment between Endur and systems like accounting and logistics, eliminating silos and boosting efficiency.

Standardize updates to reference data like counterparties and delivery locations, creating a consistent, trusted source of truth.

#Step 3: Curate

Proactively managing data is crucial to maintaining accuracy and efficiency across business systems. By focusing on data profiling, documenting data lineage, and developing a clear data catalog, organizations can protect their data, reduce risks, and ensure that teams use consistent, reliable information for decision-making.

Identify and resolve data quality issues proactively to prevent disruptions, ensuring accurate and reliable insights for decision-making.
