[ What is Data Governance? ] pg 3
Data Governance Data Governance is the organizing framework for establishing strategy, objectives and policy for effectively managing corporate data. It consists of the processes, policies, organization and technologies required to manage and ensure the availability, usability, integrity, consistency, audit ability and security of your data. A Data Governance Program consists of the inter-workings of strategy, standards, policies and communication. pg 4
Why is Data Governance Important? Systems today are more challenging to manage Siloed projects lack view of the overall picture Traditional projects lack data management focus Data quality issues are hidden, persistent Data should not be an IT concern alone Data governance ensures the right people are involved in setting data standards, usage and integration across projects, subject areas and lines of business pg 5
Common Goals of Data Governance Enable improved decision making Protect data stakeholders (business) needs Adopt common approaches to resolve data issues Build standard, repeatable processes Reduce cost and increase efficacy Ensure transparency Standardize data definitions pg 6
Data Governance Challenges Executive commitment Identifying data owners Master data definitions Enterprise-wide focus Accountability Building momentum Responding to changing business environments Fit with corporate culture pg 7
Governance is Simpler in Data Silos Front Office 1 (e.g. CRM) Front Office 2 (e.g. Web) Back office 1 (e.g. EBS) Each silo represents a specific department or region Manager of each silo decides on data rules How to store the data in the data fields How the data is consumed Consequences are also limited to silos pg 8
When Looking Across the Enterprise Front Office 1 (e.g. CRM) Front Office 2 ERROR (e.g. Web)?? Back office 1 (e.g. EBS) ERROR (from front office 2)? ERROR (from front office 2) pg 9
