Data Management and Processing
|
A common
business error involves companies
or agencies that collect
information that is more interesting
than useful in meeting goals and
objectives or best meeting the
needs of clients. Another is
collecting information that
while helpful, is not the best
information possible, resulting
in poor or less than optimal
decisions.
|
The challenge for any
company is to transform those 0's and 1's that
make up all data into the best business
intelligence needed to make the best decisions.
A key to meeting
that challenge
is creation of a
roadmap for what data needs to be
collected and
how it needs to be
studied: 1) which variables need to be factored in;
2) which primary
or secondary
sources do we
need to collect
data from;
3) which methods
do we need to
collect the
information;
4) which
analysis and/or
reporting needs
to be done.
Data management should not be
an afterthought for
managers or the IT community. Policies, procedures,
and strategies should be carefully thought out. While data storage is
frequently being expanded, much of that data is
simply being filed away, not used or simply
discarded.
CaptureISG's data
management process includes the following:
-
Create a model and invite users to the table to
share their thoughts;
-
Understand what the objectives
of the data are. Agree on the inputs and outputs;
-
Discuss who the users will be and how they can
access the data;
-
Discuss
how the data will be displayed
and/or reported - are
dashboards needed or just data reports;
-
Discuss wither you will need
to allow users to export
data or whether this
information will be provided for individual mining or
analysis;
-
Understand the sources of the data, how
reliable it is, and the best way to use that
information;
-
Avoid information overload
as it just clogs up the
plumbing. Sometimes you need
to indicate to team members
that some information is not
needed for the particular
challenge or issue.
