MODERNIZING DATA REQUIRES FIVE ELEMENTS:

DATA STRATEGY

The first step in every successful initiative is to have a comprehensive and easily understood strategy. The strategy outlines the role that data will play in an organization.

– Will it inform?
– Will you embrace a data-
driven decision-making environment?
– Where does data
ownership lie?

You must establish these guidelines before venturing further into the data technology itself.

DATA STRUCTURE

The second element is to identify and structure your various data sources. Whether information lives in Excel, Access, SQL or other data sources, identifying and organizing the data is critical.

Identify your 
sources of truth and define a data dictionary so that every part of the business knows where to find data, and can trust that it is accurate, relevant, and complete.

TECHNICAL PLATFORM

Once you have identified your data sources, you must implement a scalable, secure and accessible technology architecture. Decide whether a hybrid or a pure cloud solution is best for your business needs.

-Will you migrate into a central platform, or will you integrate disparate data sources? 

Weigh the pros and cons of these decisions and build the platform that is right for you.

ANALYTICS & INSIGHTS

Reap the rewards of your data structuring efforts and platform implementation. Build dynamic and interactive visualizations that allow leaders and individual contributors to use data in their daily decision-making and business processes. 

Most importantly, your modernized and AI-enabled data platform now allows you to move from traditional historical analysis to actionable predictive insights. 

DATA GOVERNANCE

Don’t let all your hard data modernization work go to waste. Design and implement a pragmatic and collaborative governance structure that involves both business and technical stakeholders.

Empower this team to 
make quick and effective decisions about the future of your data structure, technologies, and business applications.
