And\u00a0with this rapid\u00a0modernisation\u00a0of\u00a0systems and\u00a0processes,\u00a0the\u00a0importance of having a\u00a0robust Data Governance\u00a0framework\u00a0has\u00a0also\u00a0grown\u00a0exponentially.<\/p>\n<p>Which specific Data Governance tasks vary from company to company depending on their size, their nature, and the level of data maturity they already possess.\u00a0\u00a0So, data ownership remains a critical challenge for some, whereas it is a priority to improve data quality for others.\u00a0\u00a0For others, it will be a need for both data ownership and data quality, plus numerous other key data governance activities. The typical \u2018one size fits all\u2019 model can no longer offer the dynamic and agile approaches that digital-savvy companies require.\u00a0\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">While the need for an adaptive data governance approach is one of the enablers for successful business transformation, demonstrating the value of investing in the necessary people, processes, and technology continues to be elusive.\u00a0\u00a0This is partly driven by a strong perception amongst those who control and make budgetary decisions that data governance is a cost rather than a benefit.\u00a0\u00a0Having such perceptions can and will stifle the ability of an organisation to fully and successfully implement data governance.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">So along with implementing the data governance activities themselves, your data governance plan must show how value is being derived. The current buzz is around how you monetise your data, and showing value from your data governance activities is just one element of this monetisation challenge. According to the Gartner\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gartner.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>(www.gartner.com)<\/span><\/a>\u00a0CDO 2021 survey, while 38.7% of CDO\u2019s are measured on data monetisation, only 27.2% report that their D&amp;A teams are producing tangible business value to the organisation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">We would advise caution in undertaking this monetisation activity (itself being perceived to be a cost to the organisation).\u00a0\u00a0So, as in previous blogs, we have spoken about the implementation of Data Governance being something that organisations can do without significant up-front investment (The recent Oakland Group Lighthouse report \u2013 Data Governance by Stealth \u2013 explains how many of the benefits of Data Governance can be achieved through no or low-cost approaches)\u00a0\u00a0Using this same idea of doing things by \u201cstealth\u201d should also equally be applied to how you monetise your Data Governance.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Let\u2019s\u00a0take Data Quality as an example.\u00a0\u00a0How do we show that\u00a0fixing a\u00a0specific\u00a0data quality issue makes good business\u00a0sense?\u00a0\u00a0Rather than pick\u00a0a\u00a0complex data quality\u00a0issue, start by\u00a0focusing\u00a0on an issue that almost everyone understands well.\u00a0\u00a0A great one is\u00a0to show\u00a0the cost of\u00a0having an incorrect customer\u00a0date of birth.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">So if you know that within your call centre, 1 in every 20 dates of birth are being misreported or are incorrect, and you know the amount of new business you are generating in any given day, say 60 new customers per call operator, this means three incorrect dates of birth are being generated on average per operator every single day!\u00a0\u00a0Scale that up by the number of call operators, say 10 in this example, then over a typical month, then some 900 incorrect dates of birth are being generated or nearly 11,000 of your customers in a year.\u00a0\u00a0That is a big data quality issue that needs fixing before you even start calculating the cost to fix it.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Armed with these sorts of statistics, you can estimate the cost of correction \u2013 probably the cost of an analyst.\u00a0\u00a0So using an hourly or daily rate, you can start to cost out how much your data quality issue is costing the organisation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The costs of your\u00a0analysts\u00a0having to correct\u00a0simple\u00a0things like dates of birth\u00a0manually\u00a0can be costing your business \u00a3\u00a3\u00a3s.\u00a0However,\u00a0this could be money well spent if your analysts can\u00a0identify\u00a0systematic\u00a0patterns and trends\u00a0in the data quality issue.\u00a0So\u00a0fixing these\u00a0issues\u00a0may\u00a0incur\u00a0an\u00a0initial\u00a0cost,\u00a0but it\u00a0will derive an immediate benefit\u00a0if the\u00a0problem is permanently fixed.\u00a0\u00a0Of course, in the call\u00a0centre\u00a0example, a key task will be training and educating employees to be more diligent, which will have a\u00a0cost in terms of training materials and training time.<\/p>\n<p>The way you monetise the value of the activity will vary by business. But you will quickly be able to show the financial impact of not doing data governance correctly over a given month or a year.\u00a0\u00a0Focusing on these easy-to-understand issues and simple arithmetic will quickly make your stakeholders sit up and take note.\u00a0\u00a0In fact, from our experience, sharing such insight with your Finance Team will very quickly result in them giving you more precise values to use in your calculations.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Another easy example is people moving house.\u00a0\u00a0We know from research that some 4 to 5% of the population move home each year.\u00a0\u00a0So if you do nothing to your data to check that the customer details are accurate, your data quality is eroding at least 5% per year.\u00a0\u00a0This is, of course, assuming all your data about those who have not moved was complete, accurate, and fit for purpose to start with!\u00a0\u00a0Again, this latter point is relatively easy to validate against recognized databases such as the Postal Address File (PAF) to give you a figure of how accurate your customer address data might be.\u00a0\u00a0Then using this figure, you can work out the indicative cost of content being sent to wrong addresses and the costs involved when customers ring up to explain a delivery or letter has gone astray.\u00a0\u00a0The numbers can be mind-blowing but easy to compute.<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>These few examples highlight it is then easy to start showing the cost of not fixing data quality for the most basic customer details.\u00a0\u00a0Suppose you capture a record of your data quality issues on a register. In that case, having an indicative cost for everyone will start to reveal the true cost of inaction to those who doubt the value of data governance!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, this blog shows that it only takes some simple metrics to monetise the costs to a business of poor data quality.\u00a0\u00a0These statistics are compelling in getting people to sit up and think about the overall cost of taking the appropriate action on fixing data quality or, more generally, not implementing proper data governance.\u00a0\u00a0As the Oakland Data Governance by Stealth report explains, ((<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theoaklandgroup.co.uk\/data-strategy-governance\/\"><span>Data Governance by Stealth Lighthouse Paper, September 2021<\/span><\/a>).this monetisation can be done by stealth and under the radar of extensive transformational programmes.\u00a0\u00a0But how many of us are telling this data story to our business stakeholders?\u00a0\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Andrew Sharp is the Oakland Data Governance Lead.\u00a0<span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Covid 19 has forced many companies to rapidly\u00a0accelerate\u00a0their\u00a0data and digital transformations.
