2. Why have a Material Information System
To work smarter and faster
Reduces duplication of testing
Electronic notebook
Faster dissemination and retrieval of data
Stop data loss - Ensures data is available to next generation
Improved data consistency and quality
Improved work processes and throughput
Accelerates implementation

3. Data management plans are vital to remain relevant
Successful plans use systems engineering approach.
Programmatic Challenges?
Lack of unified directive
Requires investment of resources
Culture
Misinformation
Current Strategy:
Don’t reinvent the wheel-build on existing system to maximize impact.

6. Define Data Use Cases, Data Analytics, Informatics, Model Inputs
4. Use Templates to Import Data
7. Develop Export Templates

8. Technical Considerations
Definition of the main function of the system
How the system will fit in with existing systems and workplace practices
Who will use the system, and how
How data flows through the system
What type of information will be handled
How the system will be setup, deployed and maintained
Who is responsible for, and owns, the various system components

9. Not every user is an expert
Practical Challenges
Not every user is an expert
Materials and process data is never complete
Data has value – access control is critical (and potentially contentious)
It takes time to rationalize and consolidate data
Diverse end-users need data in diverse places and formats
Materials information systems need end-users
Designing a system from scratch is impractical
