Data Governance
We have developed a framework that addresses the data disciplines that comprise Data Governance. We assess which disciplines are relevant to a specific client’s desired future-state, and those become the content of a client-bespoke project.
A Data Governance Operating Model makes data useful and valuable for its consumers while ensuring privacy and compliance with regulations.
