Data Governance​

Data Governance is a subset of an overall data management strategy. We believe it is important enough and big enough in scope to stand on its own.  As one of the most overlooked and undervalued of the data management disciplines, it is commonly mistaken for a project or a program instead of being viewed as a way of operating that is ideally second nature to a company's people and teams.

Data Governance functions like any other data management discipline in that its objective is to protect and maintain the integrity of a company's data assets.  

Data governance is about ensuring the company has a shared understanding of each critical data object. For example, "Who is your customer?" If you are like many organizations, when everyone from the CEO down to each employee often has a different definition of who the customer is, everything from business process to data set up to data science and analytics follows suit.  When the supporting data is unclear it is... well... unsupportive.

In today's data-driven world, data governance has become a critical aspect of business success. Data governance refers to the set of policies, procedures, and practices that ensure the accuracy, completeness, and security of a company's data. Effective data governance is crucial for maintaining the integrity of a company's data assets and making informed decisions that drive growth and innovation.

One of the key ways that data governance helps maintain the integrity of a company's data assets is through people and processes using the data. When the data is trusted because it's accurate, complete, and available, organizations can accomplish more. This is because accurate data allows organizations to make informed decisions, identify trends, and gain insights that can help them stay ahead of the competition.

In addition, when people and teams understand their responsibility with regard to protecting the data, data becomes a company responsibility. This means treating data as a valuable asset and taking steps to safeguard it from unauthorized access or misuse. When data is treated as a company responsibility, everyone in the organization, from employees to executives, is accountable for maintaining the integrity of the data.
