Semarchy Data Management Drove a 315% ROI for Enterprise Customers:Total Economic Impact™ Study

Study by leading research firm finds businesses improved user efficiencies and drive legacy environment cost savings for data projects with Semarchy.

PHOENIX, AZ, UNITED STATES, June 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Semarchy, a leader in master data management (MDM), data intelligence and data integration, recently commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study and examine the potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises may realize by deploying Semarchy. The study provides a framework for business leaders to evaluate the potential financial impact of Semarchy on their organizations.

Highlights from the Study:

- 315% three-year adjusted ROI: A project’s expected return in percentage terms. ROI is calculated by dividing net benefits (benefits less costs) by costs.
- Less than six month payback period: The breakeven point for an investment. This is the point in time at which net benefits (benefits minus costs) equal the initial investment or cost.
- $5.1M Net Present Value (NPV): A capital budgeting financial metric used to analyze the profitability of a project A positive project NPV normally indicates a worthwhile investment to be compared against offerings with similar NPVs.NPV is calculated by the present or current value of (discounted) future net cash flows given an interest rate (the discount rate).

Forrester interviewed decision-makers with experience using Semarchy for this research. For the purposes of this study, Forrester aggregated the experiences of the interviewees and combined the results into a single composite organization that is a global, $10 billion dollar that operates both as a B2C and B2B organization. It has 70,000 employees.

“Semarchy is very adaptable. You can shape it the way you want. It doesn’t push you down a certain path. That’s one of the advantages of using DM,” said the IT project manager at a large construction enterprise.

Key Quantified Benefit Findings

- $6.7 million in total benefits over a three-year risk-adjusted present value (PV), with major gains across data stewardship, business user productivity, and technology cost savings:
- $4.1M worth of business user efficiencies: Business users gained self-service access to high-quality, real-time data for day-to-day operations. With easier data navigation and faster queries, teams saw 60% time savings for MDM-related workflows.
- $819K worth of data steward workflow efficiencies: SDP platform features like consolidated dashboards, match-and-merge functions, and automated enrichment improved data steward productivity by up to 60%, allowing teams to scale without increasing headcount.
- $1.3M worth of legacy environment cost savings: By replacing homegrown, code-heavy environments with Semarchy, organizations repurposed eight developers and DBAs previously tasked with manual data processing.
- $461K worth of business cost savings: Improved supplier data visibility helped optimize contract negotiations, delivering incremental savings of up to 3% by Year 3.

“An enterprise MDM strategy empowers organizations to innovate with confidence by delivering trusted, consolidated data across the business.,” said Craig Gravina, Chief Technology Officer for Semarchy. “This Forrester study validates for us what our customers already know: when data strategy is aligned with the right technology, it drives measurable ROI, boosts productivity, and accelerates business outcomes.”

- Accelerated time to value
- Data quality improvement
- Cross-functional collaboration improvement
- Surfacing new business opportunities
- Mitigating business risk

“The agility [of the platform] is one of its pluses.
