Ratatosk
Data Governance Baseline for Manufacturers
Your systems agree on schema but not on meaning. Ratatosk finds the root cause of data inconsistency across systems — before migration makes it permanent.
Why the Same Data Gives Different Results
Data inconsistency across systems is rarely an integration problem. It’s a definition problem — and it has a root cause.
- Data definitions inconsistent across systems — departments define the same entity differently
- Master data problems across systems that no integration layer can resolve
- Customer data inconsistent across CRM, ERP, and finance because each system encodes meaning differently
- SKU mismatches between warehouse, production, and sales that compound through every report
- Data reconciliation problems in ERP that surface only during migration — too late to fix cheaply
The Service Experience
From data environment intake to governance baseline delivery — what your organization receives.
Client provides their data environment
Schema exports, ERDs, data dictionaries, or direct database access. Mimir Labs ingests the structural footprint of your enterprise systems.
Deterministic Governance Analysis
No AI inference, no fuzzy matching, no NLP. Every metric is computed from explicit assignments. Audit-safe. Ratatosk identifies the root cause of data inconsistency — not the symptoms.
Parse Schema
Ingests database schema via DDL, CSV, or ODBC connection.
Assign Labels
Every field receives a structured business label through facilitated alignment.
Group Taxonomies
Tables and fields are organized into domain-specific taxonomy groups.
Detect Conflicts
Surfaces label collisions, name collisions, and ownership divergences.

Migration Credit
If your organization proceeds with a structured system migration engagement within 12 months of completing a Ratatosk workshop, up to 50% of workshop fees may be credited toward migration services.
This applies to migration engagements facilitated by Mimir Labs, regardless of final system selection.
Ratatosk is designed to accelerate informed migration decisions, not replace them.
Who Should Use It
ERP Migrators
Teams evaluating new ERP systems who need to understand why ERP implementations fail — and how to prevent it with structured data discovery before the project starts.
Data Governance Teams
Internal governance functions resolving data mismatches between systems and building a shared vocabulary across departments before integration issues compound.
ERP Consultants
Implementation partners who need structured discovery output to scope migration projects accurately and surface data reconciliation problems in ERP before they become change orders.
PE Rollups & Consolidation
Private equity portfolio companies consolidating multiple acquisitions where master data problems across systems block operational visibility.
Ratatosk gave us clarity we didn’t have after years of shadow systems.
