The document discusses data governance and data quality, noting that data governance involves establishing roles and procedures around data acquisition, maintenance, and use. It states that data governance becomes important when individual managers can no longer independently make decisions related to data. The document outlines some key aspects of effective data governance programs, such as defining data requirements and assets, as well as common challenges to implementation like gaining business commitment and treating data governance as an ongoing program rather than a single project.
Data-Ed Slides: Best Practices in Data Stewardship (Technical)DATAVERSITY
In order to find value in your organization's data assets, heroic data stewards are tasked with saving the day- every single day! These heroes adhere to a data governance framework and work to ensure that data is: captured right the first time, validated through automated means, and integrated into business processes. Whether its data profiling or in depth root cause analysis, data stewards can be counted on to ensure the organization's mission critical data is reliable. In this webinar we will approach this framework, and punctuate important facets of a data steward’s role.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the business need for a data governance framework
- Learn why embedded data quality principles are an important part of system/process design
- Identify opportunities to help drive your organization to a data driven culture

Data Governance and Data Science to Improve Data QualityDATAVERSITY
Data Science uses systematic methods, algorithms, and systems to extract knowledge and insights from structured and unstructured data. Data Science requires high-quality data that is trusted by the organization and data scientists. Many organizations focus their Data Governance programs on improving Data Quality results. These three concepts (governance, science, and quality) seem to be made for each other.
In this RWDG webinar, Bob Seiner and his special guest will discuss how the people focusing on Data Governance and Data Science must work together to improve the level of confidence the organization has in its most critical data assets. Heavy investments are being made in Data Science but not so much for Data Governance. Bob will talk about how Data Governance and Data Science must work together to improve Data Quality.
The demand for BI continues to grow, and while there's no question that analytics brings value, there is often uncertainty about how BI initiatives will deliver bottom-line benefits. Your business case for BI should prove ROI, but this is not always a straightforward process.
This presentation describes the process of producing rich product requirements by collaborative game play. It also discusses the phases of product innovation in both waterfall and agile environments.

Review of Information Technology Function Critical Capability ModelsAlan McSweeney
IT Function critical capabilities are key areas where the IT function needs to maintain significant levels of competence, skill and experience and practise in order to operate and deliver a service. There are several different IT capability frameworks. The objective of these notes is to assess the suitability and applicability of these frameworks. These models can be used to identify what is important for your IT function based on your current and desired/necessary activity profile.
Capabilities vary across organisation – not all capabilities have the same importance for all organisations. These frameworks do not readily accommodate variability in the relative importance of capabilities.
The assessment approach taken is to identify a generalised set of capabilities needed across the span of IT function operations, from strategy to operations and delivery. This generic model is then be used to assess individual frameworks to determine their scope and coverage and to identify gaps.
The generic IT function capability model proposed here consists of five groups or domains of major capabilities that can be organised across the span of the IT function:
1. Information Technology Strategy, Management and Governance
2. Technology and Platforms Standards Development and Management
3. Technology and Solution Consulting and Delivery
4. Operational Run The Business/Business as Usual/Service Provision
5. Change The Business/Development and Introduction of New Services
In the context of trends and initiatives such as outsourcing, transition to cloud services and greater platform-based offerings, should the IT function develop and enhance its meta-capabilities – the management of the delivery of capabilities? Is capability identification and delivery management the most important capability? Outsourced service delivery in all its forms is not a fire-and-forget activity. You can outsource the provision of any service except the management of the supply of that service.
The following IT capability models have been evaluated:
• IT4IT Reference Architecture https://www.opengroup.org/it4it contains 32 functional components
• European e-Competence Framework (ECF) http://www.ecompetences.eu/ contains 40 competencies
• ITIL V4 https://www.axelos.com/best-practice-solutions/itil has 34 management practices
• COBIT 2019 https://www.isaca.org/resources/cobit has 40 management and control processes
• APQC Process Classification Framework - https://www.apqc.org/process-performance-management/process-frameworks version 7.2.1 has 44 major IT management processes
• IT Capability Maturity Framework (IT-CMF) https://ivi.ie/critical-capabilities/ contains 37 critical capabilities

Federated data organizations in public sector face more challenges today than ever before. As discovered via research performed by North Highland Consulting, these are the top issues you are most likely experiencing:
• Knowing what data is available to support programs and other business functions
• Data is more difficult to access
• Without insight into the lineage of data, it is risky to use as the basis for critical decisions
• Analyzing data and extracting insights to influence outcomes is difficult at best
The solution to solving these challenges lies in creating a holistic enterprise data governance program and enforcing the program with a full-featured enterprise data management platform. Kreig Fields, Principle, Public Sector Data and Analytics, from North Highland Consulting and Rob Karel, Vice President, Product Strategy and Product Marketing, MDM from Informatica will walk through a pragmatic, “How To” approach, full of useful information on how you can improve your agency’s data governance initiatives.
Learn how to kick start your data governance intiatives and how an enterprise data management platform can help you:
• Innovate and expose hidden opportunities
• Break down data access barriers and ensure data is trusted
• Provide actionable information at the speed of business
Key takeaways:
-Identify with the key reasons for failing Data Governance initiatives
-Uncover the commonly used Data Governance terms and their meanings
-Learn the Framework for a successful Data Governance Program

Data Quality in Data Warehouse and Business Intelligence Environments - Disc...Alan D. Duncan
Time and again, we hear about the failure of data warehouses – while things may be improving, they’re moving only slowly. One explanation data quality being overlooked is that the I.T. department is often responsible for delivering and operating the DWH/BI
environment. What ensues ends up being an agenda based on “how do we build it”, not a “why are we doing this”. This needs to change. In this discussion paper, I explore the issues of data quality in data warehouse, business intelligence and analytic environments, and propose an approach based on "Data Quality by Design"
Organizations must realize what it means to utilize data quality management in support of business strategy. This webinar will illustrate how organizations with chronic business challenges often can trace the root of the problem to poor data quality. Showing how data quality should be engineered provides a useful framework in which to develop an effective approach. This in turn allows organizations to more quickly identify business problems as well as data problems caused by structural issues versus practice-oriented defects and prevent these from re-occurring.

Editor's Notes
“Data Governance is a system of decision rights and accountabilities for information-related processes, executed according to agreed-upon models which describe who can take what actions with what information, and when, under what circumstances, using what methods.” (The Data GovernanceInstitute)“Data governance is a set of processes that ensures that important data assets are formally managed throughout the enterprise. Data governance ensures that data can be trusted and that people can be made accountable for any adverse event that happens because of low data quality..” (Wikipedia)
Shortening the compilation of data for business decision-making purposes Corporate reduction in data redundancy Gaining control over valuable data and information assets Assisting in making more effective use of data assets.
