Data Governance

Why do you need data governance?

Data Governance is central to most other data management disciplines. But what benefit does it provide when working alongside other data systems?

Data Quality

Data governance and data quality go hand in hand. Data quality is a combination of tooling, people, processes and how individuals interact with data and each other – this is all intrinsic to data governance. Data governance provides a framework for high data quality.

Value

Data governance combines people, process, technology and data into simple frameworks that any organisation can adapt. The simple ingenuity of data governance improves efficiency and ultimately, improves data quality.

Efficiency

Most challenges around data, including manual work and bad communication or siloes, are due to a lack of management of data. A data governance framework will help improve efficiency in your day-to-day work life.

System Implementation

Data systems are expensive, especially if the data being inputted and used is of poor quality. Strong data governance frameworks provide you with the reassurance that any data systems you invest in, will be as helpful as possible.

Decision making

By implementing a data governance framework, you can make decisions based on your data systems safe in the knowledge that your tooling and data is of high quality.

Reduce costs, increase revenue

The old adages of reducing costs and increasing revenue can be tied to successful data governance. When done right, your business efficiency will rocket and you will notice the benefits to the bottom line.
