CIMdata's research finds that the need for data governance is recognized but many companies lack the structure to achieve this:
- Data does not make it easy to access the "true" record of truth.
- Organizations lack a common understanding of the critical data elements that produce value.
- Existing tools are inadequate for resolving and coming to common data definitions.
- Data Governance is needed, but where do you start?
- Data is not consistent and trustworthy.
- Internal data standards and policies not defined.
Digital Transformation programs are enabling growth for many companies. At the core of digital transformation is the data entered into the myriad of enterprise systems and used throughout the organization to make decisions. Despite the importance of accurate product development, supply chain, manufacturing, marketing, and sales data to the organization, many companies lack a formal structure and governance for the data. In this webinar, we will discuss the results of CIMdata's recent data governance survey, techniques for enabling organization attention on data governance, and data governance activities within a digital transformation initiative.
