Enterprise Data Management
“Being data-driven means using data, whatever its source, to make better business decisions. Data management has to handle the complexity of state, store, access, quality and context to enable organizations to realise their data-driven aspirations, central to digital business success.” – Gartner, 2022
Enterprise Data Management with CARA
Take a holistic approach to managing your data and drive better decision-making across the entire organisation, with Enterprise Data Management on the CARA Platform.
Build a Data Compliance Powerhouse
CARA’s built-in database manages enterprise information with complex and interlinked hierarchical data structures. Every item in CARA is stored with metadata, enabling complete traceability of updates as well as the ability to link data together and alias data for your different teams for complete Master Data Management in line with industry standards.
See the Whole Picture, Share the Context
Whenever your core data is re-used, CARA automatically creates relationships between that data and where it’s used. With ‘Where Used’, you can leverage these relationships to immediately understand how anything from a product, manufacturer, location, file, even down to a molecule is being used across your enterprise. So instead of handing off reports and summaries of the situation between your teams, you can join up processes that start in one team and end in another with visibility and understanding from start to finish.
Achieve Consistency & Accuracy Across your End-to-End Processes
With CARA’s Structured Information Lake, everything on (or attached) to your platform re-uses the same data. This means that wherever your data is used, it pulls and re-uses the latest, accurate values from your master data. And wherever new data is entered, those values are controlled, centralised and instantly re-usable by other parts of the business. Since data is stored with a unique, persistent ID, your teams can use and describe data differently, safe in the knowledge that your core data is not corrupted.
Data Extraction & Content Generation
Data in, Content out – Content in, Data out.
With CARA, you can use data in more productive ways – extract data from multiple sources and store that data ready for re-use in the Structured Information Lake, create an automation to pull key pieces of data from structured documents, or design eForms to ingest data from externals. Once you have the data, you can automatically generate new forms, templated word documents with pre-filled tables and graphs, or PDFs with custom layouts and overlays.
Share and Submit Data to 3rd Parties
Whether its pushing an XML-based submission to an authority, or sharing subsets of data with a partner, CARA’s got you covered. XML templates allow you to design and generate data submissions consistently and automatically, taking the manual work out of your compliance. With built-in Master Data Management, CARA can pull approved values directly, and even push your data submissions to gateways as needed. For less structured collaboration, CARA’s ‘Share With’ function allows you to provide 3rd parties with time-limited, controlled access to certain data within the platform, ensuring secure data collaboration.

Rapid Data & Process Visualisation with Dashboards and Reports
With Dashboards and Reports, CARA enables users to define their own graphical views, with simple customisation of interactive reports, making data visualisation and insight easy. Business groups can also build their own full dashboards for consistently monitoring critical KPIs and status reports. Users can export reports as well as receive Scheduled Reports to bring them timely updates and summaries.
Find Everything, Instantly
Regain time lost to searching with CARA’s quick search and intuitive filters. The platform’s powerful search performance can return millions of results in under a second. All enterprise data can be instantly accessible in any area across the organisation, so users and their teams can easily find high-quality data for use in their work, sharing, and accurate analysis.
