With a data strategy focused on iterative data governance, this healthcare giant started with metadata management to foster enhanced trust in their data. They standardized data definitions and established clear data lineage—setting them up for sustained growth built on high quality data.
Our “right-fit” approach to data governance is centered on simplifying the complicated realm of data governance. We work with our clients to make data governance approachable and achievable – and something that creates tangible value in phases.
For a data governance program to be successful, it should realistic – it should match your company’s needs, size, urgency, maturity, and capabilities. Your data governance program should align with your data strategy, making sure that data governance blends into everyday operations, and it should be designed to scale with your needs.
Data governance should be an ongoing investment, not a project with start and end dates. We believe in a “just enough” approach to data governance that provides incremental value and promotes growth. As data governance activities expand and more people take on data governance responsibilities, each new component should be assessed and formally integrated into your program.
Establishing the right people and processes is critical and provides immediate value, long before implementing a tool. Come time to invest in technology, we assess our clients’ existing tools and utilities that can be leveraged for data governance and ensure all new technology is intentionally implemented to avoid unnecessary spend.
Whether you are creating a data governance program from scratch or looking to mature your existing program, we will work with you to make your data and analytics more accessible, trustworthy, and actionable to the organization.
We will make sure your data governance program is designed to be adopted. Starting with your organizational readiness, we will help you understand where gaps exist in your processes and people and then create an all-encompassing enablement plan. We specialize in education and training, change management, policies and procedures, and all aspects of organizational readiness.
We will help you give meaning and definitions to all the data assets in your organization through the selection and implementation of data governance tools and utilities, including a data glossary, data dictionary, data catalog, and data lineage. Depending on your analytics maturity, we will help you determine which artifacts are necessary and a practical plan for building and maintaining.
In addition to ensuring you have the processes, standards, and policies in place to effectively govern data across all stages of the data lifecycle—we specialize in master data management so that your organization’s most critical data is centralized and trusted.When it comes to emerging AI software, we take it seriously – adhering to laws and regulations and upholding ethical use of data.
When you commit to data governance, you need to know that your efforts are resulting in more strategic decisions driven by higher-quality data. We will work with you to establish data quality rules, define success criteria, implement technology, and automate your processes. We also design data quality programs that establish company-wide rules and procedures to ensure trusted data.
Achieve regulatory compliance without the dread. We’ll help you navigate the complex landscape of regulatory requirements and help you classify, store, and manage your data in compliance with regulations such as GDPR and CCPA, avoiding fines and protecting your reputation.
Data governance breeds higher quality — and more secure — data and creates transparency into data processes across the organization.

Provide clarity across the organization with documented data processes and procedures; a complete inventory of databases, tables, and columns; owners and stewards assigned to data subject areas; and defined data lineage for operational data integrations and ETL.
