By minimizing the human intervention and the associated risk of errors, the automated data integration eliminates , in turn, the common mistakes related to the structure definition.

One of the standout features of DFM is its precise and relevant data mapping. It offers:

• The documentation of data flows according to the specific business rules. The Mapping optimizes the data management flows by detailing the rules that govern the data exchanges.
• Simulation of the data flow management rules through the DFM simulator.
• The automatic archive mapping versions, or the automatic versioning, with each new change request.

The Flow Chart feature of the DFM solution allows you to model the development processes via flowcharts in just a few clicks. It is a user-friendly and intuitively guides you in schematizing flows: creating all steps, setting control points and conditions, and generating appropriate milestones and alerts. Through the Flow Chart, you can model the data structures, various connections and protocols, and the related types of transformations.

In addition to flow modeling, this highly visual tool provides an overview of the data flows.

With DFM’s Kanban feature, you can track the task progress, achievements, and the exchange history. Equipped by a ticketing system, it enables you to create a ticket with a single click directly from the documentation (Mapping and Flow Chart). With just one ticket per flow, it preserves the information of the loss and reinforces it by ensuring an automatic versioning and an update that includes each modification of the Mapping and/or Flow Chart.

Get a clear and insightful overview of the performance metrics to facilitate your decision-making with DFM’s dashboard.

Numerous reports and dashboards allow you to monitor the key indicators across various levels (by project, flow, or collaborator), including the completion rates and budget variances. Indeed, it would equally help you optimize your processes.

DFM’s dashboard provides you with an extensive range of KPIs to streamline the project management and ensure their efficiency and success.

Optimize your data structure management with structure mapping. This real-time visual representation of exchanges between sources and targets simplifies the understanding of the relationships and interdependencies among the different data structures.

Structure mapping streamlines the analysis of the impact of the structural changes, significantly mitigating the risk of encountering unintended and unmanaged effects.

Gain a holistic and dynamic view of the information architecture with a system mapping that depicts real-time exchanges among systems.

DFM also helps you align your data with the systems, applications, and the transformation processes to optimize their operation. It provides you with an overview of the inter-enterprise architecture that facilitates the strategic decision-making.

Create a functional data dictionary and leverage real-time business reference mapping.

The DFM Business References feature prevents any misunderstandings, harmonizes the understanding of information within the team, connects the technical data to the business data and allows you to seamlessly navigate between different processing layers. In short, it establishes your functional management rules and thus facilitates the analysis of the functional data.

Get the flexibility of DFM and integrate JIRA into DFM. Apart from the Kanban Board, DFM offers you the alternative to centralize the ticket management on JIRA to ensure the smooth communication among the concerned teams. By synchronizing these platforms, this feature documents flows within DFM, including the creation of Mapping and Flow Chart. It also makes it possible to track tasks on JIRA in a consistent and synchronous way, ensuring, in turn, a smooth project management and effective communication among teams.

This feature of DFM allows for schematizing the relationships between business repositories models in data flow management within a project. It facilitates the analysis, modeling and optimization of flows. This feature places particular emphasis on the representation of the relationships between business repositories and data structures, highlighting the functional labels that connect them.

The Project Process feature enables the modeling of a project’s process by visually representing the necessary steps, workflows, and interactions to complete a project. Within the project process, various project flows can be modeled using clickable elements that redirect the user to the corresponding flowcharts. This feature helps to clarify the relationships between different parts and flows, as well as identify critical points and opportunities for improvement.
