It’s All About Value

Gaining, Developing, Creating, Driving, and Harvesting value from your Enterprise Foundational Data is a strategic objective of seemingly every organization. Value though is an elusive objective when it comes to data and often requires a significant systemic strategy and approach. The strategy must include alignment of the people, processes and technologies touching data over its lifecycle.

For many organizations, the data is spread across multiple disparate repositories, complete with inconsistent indexes, variable naming conventions, duplication, fragmentation and unknown embedded tribal knowledge.

Without a clear understanding of the lifecycle of this data and defined minimum requirements and quality expectations (standards), even seasoned data administrators will struggle to achieve success in leveraging asset data to its full potential.

However, there are case studies demonstrating success. These success stories reveal the necessity of data management. Define, Measure, Enhance, Repeat is a simple way to demonstrate what the management of data means. Disciplined and focused organizations see results from the data they collect and analyze.
