Governance Foundation: Data Principles According to Information Model

Without a set of guiding principles, organizations often find themselves tackling the same issues with every use case, repetitively adjudicating the same kinds of conflicts and disputes, with little consistency across the use cases.

Are you struggling with a lack of governance and stewardship?

The core information model and principles are the guiding “commandments” used to govern the resultant environment created by a data strategy. Your principles must be aligned to support the model, and should be used to guide the behavior of everyone who operates in the data management environment, from source system owners through to human analysts.

Download this Governance Foundation Cheat Sheet to help you map data principles according to your unique information economy.
