Client Challenges

Businesses today face several challenges in managing and using data effectively:

Lack of enterprise-wide visibility
Data is highly dispersed, fragmented and duplicated due to heterogeneous applications with independent data systems.
Poor data quality
Due to the absence of enterprise-wide data quality principles.
Lack of centralized metadata management
Non-standard data and exceptions in data range, type and length due to the absence of a metadata platform.
Poor master data management
Multiple owners maintain data pertaining to different technologies in various data structures.
Data security issues
Unauthorized and/or uncontrolled access to mission-critical data.
Lack of data governance committee
No structure to enforce data quality principles/standards or to create awareness among source-system owners about the importance of data as a corporate asset.
Multiple versions of operational reports
Sub-functions and data duplication in varying formats across privacy, legal and regulatory compliance measures, leading to uncontrolled data distribution and non-compliance.
