2 The Survey The Big Data opportunity has been constantly highlighted by many public sector leaders but what does Big Data actually mean for local authorities today? According to a recent report by Civica, many councils are sitting on what is effectively an 'untapped goldmine' of data, which could offer valuable insight into understanding the needs of UK residents.this includes data concerning when a child enrols in school or the offering of family vouchers for leisure facilities. Many organisations are now looking at which IT solutions are required to turn big data into a competitive advantage. Our survey considered how Big Data is currently used across local authorities, the importance placed on it within each organisation and the barriers and challenges faced by those charged with overseeing it. This document contains the key findings of the report and recommendations going forward. Profile of respondents In total, 88 individuals fully completed our survey representing a range of parties involved in use of Big Data in local authorities. For the purposes of this report, we will focus solely on these responses. However, please note that a summary of responses at the end of this report represents all those who accessed the survey. The following three diagrams illustrate the breakdown of respondents by seniority, job function and responsibility for Big Data within each organisation. 1
3 Chief Head Manager Director Other 20% 3% 9% 30% 37% Figure 1: Profile by seniority level IT Business 38% 63% Figure 2: Job function - IT versus other departments 2
4 Wider departments Senior management IT Other 23% 24% 27% 26% Figure 3: Responsibility of Big Data in organisations Summary of Key Findings Big data in local authorities 16% of organisations surveyed state they have a Big Data Policy with 20% unaware of one in existence. Of those who do have a policy in place, just under 10% of organisations have a standalone policy, with 29% stating it is part of the overall ICT strategy. As indicated in Figure 3, 27% of organisations view it as the responsibility of IT followed closely by senior management (26%). However, the majority of organisations (77%) do not have a team dedicated to Big Data and just 15% have fully embraced Big Data, as can be seen in Figure 5. However, of those who have embraced Big Data, the main benefits cited were the ability to answer questions quickly and greater understanding of citizens. 3
5 This demonstrates that local authorities are not yet fully on board with the concept of Big Data and/or the potential benefits it can deliver as highlighted by the Civica Report published in late There are others who are already reaping the rewards and delivering more effective services tailored to user needs. This report will now go on to discuss the perceived barriers to introducing Big Data as highlighted by survey participants. Yes No Don t know 20% 16% 64% Figure 4: Do you have a Big Data Policy? 4
6 Yes No Don t know 24% 15% 61% Figure 5: Has your organisation as a whole embraced Big Data? Barriers to introducing Big Data Organisations cited many barriers to introducing Big Data but the most commonly cited barrier was the fact that current infrastructure was not fit for purpose (27%). Of the 20% who selected other, the main reasons raised were the lack of understanding around what Big Data is and how to use it; the fact that it is neither perceived as a benefit or the lack of, a problem, within organisations; perceived lack of resources and that the term Big Data is overhyped. 5
7 Internal processes Wider employee buy-in Other Senior management buy-in Current infrastructure not fit for purpose 20% 15% 18% 27% 19% Figure 6: If you said No to embracing Big Data, which of the following are the main barriers to introducing it? Stage of implementation None of the organisations surveyed have fully rolled out use of Big Data to the wider organisation. In fact, the majority of organisations were still in the Concept stage (31%) or Early Adoption (23%). The fact that the biggest barrier was with regards to current infrastructure issues and, as indicated in the following diagram, the most quoted barrier to embracing it was fear of data misuse, highlights a potential hesitancy of many local authorities in fully getting on board. Other barriers cited related to Data Protection, the question of cost versus perceived value, and the fact that some organisations are not far enough along the process to come up against barriers at this stage. 6
8 Fear of data misuse Fear of culture change Other Fear of data loss Lack of senior management buy-in 21% 28% 15% 17% 19% Figure 7: Which of the following would you consider to be barriers to embracing Big Data in your organisation? 7
9 Organisation concerns around use of Big Data The main concern for organisations was lack of systems integration (26%) followed by Information Governance (24%). Of those who selected Other, cultural readiness was raised as was once again, the lack of understanding. Speed Lack of systems integration Information governance Accuracy Lack of staff expertise Other 11% 5% 14% 24% 19% 26% Figure 8: Organisation concerns around use of Big Data 8
10 Biggest challenge for organisations regarding Big Data This question allowed participants to give a personal view on what they perceive to be the biggest challenge for their organisation. Below are some examples cited by those who took part. Understanding how big(ger) data can be used to inform service delivery. Working out what questions it could help us answer or outcomes it could help deliver and then establishing how to get data out of the systems. Cultural readiness. It really has little to do with Big Data, but rather the introduction of such as far reaching disruptive change. Creating full organisational buy-in for ongoing management of Open / Big Data. Firstly, convincing managers and staff that this is important, and then finding the resource to make data accessible in a meaningful way. Building trust that it is safe to share data. Making sure we can bring it altogether as systems have grown organically over a period of time with no strategy of bringing it all together. However, one area that was cited here as a challenge and also as a barrier in other responses was the fact that some smaller organisations feel that Big Data is only for larger organisations and this demonstrates that the term Big Data can be quite misleading to some. IT hardware and software requirements The majority, over 50%, could not tell us what percentage of the ICT budget has been invested in improving IT hardware and software in the last twelve months and just under 20% felt their organisation did not have the right hardware and software in place to maximise the opportunities Big Data represents. However, the majority (69%) had assessed the current storage infrastructure through a Storage Assessment or other means. Below lists the areas highlighted through this assessment. De-duplication was cited as the main choice of storage optimisation. 9
11 Potential security risks Unused storage capacity Identified data users Identified how active info is Data integration issues Identified data origins Identified how data is used 15% 18% 12% 12% 24% 9% 9% Figure 9: Individuals who answered Yes to assessing storage infrastructure The future of Big Data Going forward, 68% felt Big Data would play a very important or important role going forward. Despite the fact that the percentage of organisations who have a Big Data Policy or are actually embracing Big Data is relatively low, this is something that is likely to change should we revisit this area in twelve or eighteen months time. 10
12 Conclusion Survey partner: IBM Big Data promises to open doors through improving business knowledge, enabling an enhanced view and more intimate relationship with the customer and by improving operational efficiency. This report demonstrates that getting to the threshold of that door can be a challenge in itself: from getting the right infrastructure and resources in place and managing all this information through to to understanding how Big Data can transform services and contemplating how that may transform your organisation. IBM provides the hardware, software and services to help companies and public sector organisations get the most value from all of their information. IBM Business Partners bring their wealth of expertise and experience to deliver your Big Data solution.
