Editor's Notes

  • #8 Why is it so difficult to get the data right? This is a simplified view of the e2e landscape for System X product announcements IBM delivers Product & Price data to Partners via many different mechanisms There are multiple begin and end points, aka catalogs The Partners imbed the data from some of these feeds into their systems The way that we deliver product & price data to our customers & partners is highly complex and data driven. It relies on the synchronization of multiple data points in the flow in order for the correct data to be provided. When something goes wrong there is usually a customer impact that has a negative impact on IBM’s credibility and revenue. To get it right, for an announcement for example, requires the coordination of multiple activities performed by multiple organizations, according to a very tight schedule. When something goes wrong, tracing back through the flow to determine when and where a failure occurred can be complex and time consuming. Each of the nodes and manual intervention points can be a potential cause for data quality issues The goal is to identify data problems as early as possible to minimize customer impacts
  • #9 The Information chain is not just about “data” Data is the blood stream enabling and connecting business activity through IT systems and applications All 3 dimensions need to be understood, which can be a continuous learning experience Efforts on Business glossary and Meta Data solutions will help, but often gaps remain Initial challenge often is to find the right place or right SME to obtain information – Build a “who is who” along the way Detail knowledge is often in “people’s head” or disbursed across many places on the Intranet, Documents, archives etc. For long term sustainability decide on how to capture the information consistently, ensure it is easy to access and navigate and determine on how to maintain the information current Level of granularity can easily become burdensome and overwhelming to avoid turning this into a documentation exercise Stay practical, develop the knowledge as needed, ie what area and pain point is being worked and expand over time Working the information chain typically brings different teams together, IT operations, application defect mgmt, Business operations, Business transformation architects and analysts and process experts Often a blend of different disciplines will be applied depending on issues being worked and in which of the 3 spheres the improvements targeted The information chain mgmt can easily lead into Lean sigma projects and business performance mgmt methods being applied This can be seen as another dimension of e2e – bringing IT, Business and Data together, and while the blurring of the lines can cause confusion of accountabilities, it should be seen as key element of information chain management
