Is Quality Data a business enabler or a risk enabler?

Most organizations like yours, are mature in their data quality and Governance practices, to meet their Enterprise goals. But, are you able to meet your compliance needs and reduce operational risks at the scale you intend to?

A data quality service can be well defined with a set of service domains including Service set up, service promotion, service usage, service protection, service monitoring & improvement.

Quoting an example, data quality services would have been initiated and grown in-organically based on the "then needs" of your organization to realize the complete value of data, reduce data issues and meet regulatory needs. But, the recent organizational - internal and external drivers necessitating “management of data as a meaning” along with “simplification of data landscape” and “aligning with Risk management” are pushing the need for maturity in Data Quality management.
Sustaining Data Quality while integrating it into daily data operations in a way that these services are not perceived as an overhead, is key to the success of the data office

​​Challenges In Adoption Of Data Quality Services

Further challenges most organizations are facing today are detailed below. Soft 2001 Inc performs a survey of the challenges every year in the industry.

  • Challenges are in the cultural adoption of Data Quality, in a distributed way in the organization.
  • Most organizations take a value-driven approach to data quality management but fail to understand that the Risk-based approach is also required, in the interest of Enterprise goals. Currently, Data Quality Risks are not identified actively by the Business divisions.
  • Awareness of data Quality is a major challenge for Enterprises. With awareness comes adoption and enablement of trust in the data that is being used.
  • Project Governance structure along with well-defined artifacts at every stage, in a change lifecycle, need to be defined. This has limited adoption across divisions and needs to be enforced through Data Governance, risk management, and PMO standardization.
  • ​There is a need for continuous enhancement of services, frameworks, and thresholds to complement the current needs of stakeholders, organizations, and challenges.
