Unlock Your Data Assets for Scale with Data Governance
Accelerate your path to data that is secure, trusted and competitive
Data Governance – The key to scaling your data
Most companies struggle to capture the enormous potential of their data.
Typically, they launch massive programmes that try to meet the needs of every data end user or have individual application-development teams set up customised data pipelines that can’t easily be repurposed.
Firms instead need to figure out how to craft data strategies that deliver value in the near term and at the same time lay the foundations for future data use.
Growing reliance on Data Governance
Gartner states that through 2025, 80% of organisations seeking to scale digital business will fail because they do not take a modern approach to data and analytics governance.
Despite awareness of the costs of poor quality data, a Decision Inc. survey revealed that the majority of companies believe they are not living up to their data and analytics potential.
The proper governance of your data is more relevant now than ever, as companies move to data-driven strategies:
Regulatory compliance
Dependence of reporting and analytics on data
Dependence of automation on data
Increased focus on trust and security
Move towards open data
Commercialising data
What is Data Governance?
The Governance of Data involves the control and organisation of data in a way that gives peace of mind to directors and business users.
Components of a Data Governance Strategy
Productivity: Ensuring my team has the data they need to be most effective.
Risk Management: Ensuring my data is safe and compliant and the right people are using it.
Opportunity: Unlocking my data assets for scale.

Cutting Edge Analytics Starts with Data Quality
The meaning of the data-driven organisation has changed. Today, the true value of data lies in analytics and intelligence – but without sound data governance, your data could be nothing but disparate information.
The five key principles of a data governance framework
A data governance framework is the collection of rules, processes, and role delegations that ensure privacy, structure, and compliance in a company’s enterprise data management. These work in unison to enable data to be well organised and maintained, searchable, and meet all required regulations.
Accelerate Growth and Scalability With Strategy-Based Data Governance
Choosing the right data governance approach results in trustworthy, compliant data that drives the business forward quickly. Data has become one of an organisation’s biggest assets. But many businesses aren’t using their data well and it’s hurting their effectiveness and profitability.
Why a data governance framework is essential in executing your strategy
Strategy without governance is nothing more than a wish list. Every day, businesses produce and collect massive amounts of data – more than ever before. This data is essential for making informed decisions, but it can only be used effectively if it’s properly governed. To ensure that your strategy is executed successfully, you need to put in place a data governance framework.. This framework will help to align the data with the business goals and objectives.
