Prescriptive Data Model (PDM)
The FRD section lists several key components necessary for defining and managing functional requirements in a project:
SOW Template: A template for the Statement of Work, which outlines the project's scope, objectives, deliverables, and timelines.
Data Model: A representation of the data structures and relationships within the system or solution.
Design Requirements Based on Accelerators: Design specifications that leverage pre-built components or tools (referred to as Accelerators) to speed up development.
User Stories: Descriptions of features or functionalities from the end-user's perspective, typically used in Agile methodologies.
Estimation Guide: A guide to help estimate the effort, time, and resources required for the project.
Key Insights of Prescriptive Delivery
Prescriptive Data Model is a key component of the Prescriptive Delivery Artifacts framework developed by Pricefx to support successful platform deployments. This data model serves as a foundational element that underpins the entire implementation process.
This model should incorporate the following attributes
Designing a Tailored Data Foundation
At its core, the Prescriptive Data Model is designed to capture the unique data requirements and relationships specific to each industry that Pricefx serves. By deeply understanding the data structures, entities, and interdependencies that are crucial to the customer's business, the Prescriptive Data Model provides a tailored data architecture that can be seamlessly integrated with the Pricefx platform.
Prescriptive Data Model's Industry-Specific Advantage
The data model goes beyond generic deployment guidelines, offering a meticulously crafted blueprint that addresses the nuances and complexities inherent in different industry verticals. This industry-specific approach ensures that the Pricefx implementation is aligned with the customer's existing data ecosystem, minimizing the need for extensive customization and accelerating the time-to-value.
Enabling Cohesive Data Connectivity
Complementing the data model are comprehensive data mapping and integration artifacts. These resources provide detailed guidance on how to efficiently connect the Pricefx platform with the customer's various data sources, whether they are internal systems, external databases, or third-party applications. This level of integration ensures a cohesive and streamlined data flow, enabling the platform to leverage the customer's most critical information assets.
Ensuring Robust Governance, Security, and Compliance
Furthermore, the Prescriptive Data Model incorporates best practices for data governance, security, and compliance. These considerations are essential in today's complex regulatory environment, and the Pricefx team has meticulously incorporated them into the model to safeguard the customer's sensitive data and ensure adherence to industry-specific standards.

Key Insights of Prescriptive Delivery
The following are some of the key characteristics of prescriptive delivery:
Structured Approach: The prescriptive delivery method implies a highly organized and methodical approach to project management, ensuring all necessary documentation and planning are in place.
Prescriptive Delivery: A Structured Approach to Project Management
The Prescriptive Delivery framework adopted by Pricefx reflects a highly organized and methodical approach to project management. This structured methodology ensures that all necessary documentation and planning components are carefully put in place to support a successful platform implementation and this is reflected in these attributes:
Structured Roadmap for Implementation
At the core of the Prescriptive Delivery approach is a well-defined project management process. This process guides implementation teams through a series of structured steps, from initial scoping and requirements gathering to detailed design, testing, and deployment. Each phase is underpinned by comprehensive documentation, providing a clear roadmap for the project lifecycle.
Minimizing Uncertainty and Ensuring Predictable Pricefx Deployment
The structured nature of Prescriptive Delivery helps to minimize uncertainties and streamline the overall implementation process. By ensuring that all planning and preparation activities are thoroughly addressed, the framework empowers implementation teams to anticipate and mitigate potential roadblocks, ultimately leading to more predictable and successful Pricefx deployments.
Collaborative Excellence by Fostering Alignment
Prescriptive Delivery method encourages a collaborative approach, fostering open communication and alignment between the Pricefx team, implementation partners, and the customer's stakeholders. This collaborative environment enables the seamless exchange of information, facilitating informed decision-making and a shared understanding of project goals and milestones.
Through its structured approach, the Prescriptive Delivery framework equips Pricefx customers with a well-defined and organized path to platform implementation. This level of rigor and planning helps to instill confidence, reduce risks, and ensure that the Pricefx solution is deployed in a manner that aligns with the customer's unique business requirements and strategic objectives.
Use of Accelerators: Leveraging accelerators can significantly reduce development time and improve efficiency by reusing existing components.
User-Centric Design: Including user stories emphasizes the importance of understanding user needs and ensuring the final product meets these needs.
Comprehensive Planning: The inclusion of an estimation guide and SOW template ensures that all aspects of the project are well-planned and documented, reducing the risk of scope creep and miscommunication.
