    Relevant FAQ:

    • If there are multiple initiatives in a data quality program and each initiative can have a different owner, why do we need a data quality program? Why can't we simply have a tracking sheet of independent initiatives?
    • Can we have multiple data quality programs running at the same time?
    • We started a big data quality program. There were 7 projects, within that program. Some-how the three projects, never took-off and the stakeholders have chosen to post-pone them to a later stage. Should we close the DQ program or keep it open till these three projects are also completed?
    • Should tracking of change controls (and not projects), be part of Data Quality program?
    • In our Data quality initiation phase completion report, we came out with recommendation for 10 initiatives to address more than 30 critical data quality issues. However, we got the OK for only 3 of them. The DQ team has lost its motivation. What should we do?
    • The enterprise data steward has left the organization. We need some time to hire a new resource. Who can be a good candidate to work as the acting data steward?
    • In the prior time, when CIO was considered responsible for data quality, we had a better discipline around the data quality. As we moved the ownership of Data Quality to business owners, situation has gone worse. CIO has washed his hands-off the responsibility and acting like an order taker. On the other hand business owners are neither trained nor do they have a data quality focus. Management team feels that we should revert to the previous arrangement. What are your comments?

    Relevant TIPs:  

    • There is a testing phase for transitioning the business ownership for data quality.
    • Data Quality program will survive, if it adapts and is responsive to change.
    • Data Quality Program should be aligned with larger data management initiatives.
    • Data quality Initiatives should piggy-back on larger funded projects.
    • Weigh your risks carefully before asking money. Think business.
    • If data quality agenda is a treadmill, we should set it up on 'Cardio' program.
