Data is one of the four critical resources in an organization, equivalent with the financial resource, real property, and the human resource. Yet most organizations fail to manage the data with the same priority, discipline, and attention that is applied to the other critical resource. The time for disciplined management of the data resource is long overdue.
Most public and private sector organizations face many challenges with burgeoning quantities of disparate data. These disparate data are not well understood, have high redundancy, are not consistent, have low quality, and fail to adequately support the organization’s business information demand. The only way to resolve this situation is to thoroughly understand how and why disparate data are created, and how those problems can be resolved.
