Data Governance

In today’s data-driven world, organisations are accumulating vast amounts of data at an unprecedented rate. This surge in data has led to various challenges, including data security breaches, privacy concerns, and regulatory compliance issues, and if you get these wrong it can have severe consequences.

In order to address these challenges and circumnavigate the severe consequences of non-compliance, businesses must implement a robust data governance framework.

Our team collaborates closely with you to establish the right policies and processes, ensuring effective data management, improved data quality, increased confidence in your data, and the ability to make well-informed, data-driven decisions—all while adhering to data security and privacy regulations.

What is Data Governance, and Why Is It Important?

According to The Data Governance Institute, Data Governance can be defined as:

“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.”

In simpler terms, data governance establishes the foundation for collecting, managing, and releasing data for improved quality, accessibility and use. This includes defining the policies, standards, architecture, decision-making structure and issues resolutions process around your data.

A robust data governance strategy is essential for organisations that want to maximise the value of their data assets, maintain compliance, and cultivate a culture of data-driven decision-making. It will help you effectively manage, protect, and leverage your data so that you can benefit from improved overall organisational efficiency, effectiveness, and long-term sustainability.

By implementing a strong data governance strategy, you will benefit from improved:

Data quality and accuracy
Compliance and risk management
Efficiency and cost reduction
Data privacy and security
Data monetisation

A comprehensive data governance strategy is non-negotiable

If you’re striving to become a truly data-driven organisation, having a comprehensive data governance strategy in place is non-negotiable. In fact, any organisation that handles data needs to implement a data governance strategy.

A key part of governing your data is to ensure you have a solid understanding of your data – and we mean really know your data.

Ask yourself: Who owns your data? Can you measure the quality and usage of your data? What technologies are you using? And have you documented all your data processes to ensure a consistent outcome?
