How do you establish an effective data quality program? How do you measure high quality data? How can you overcome governance and implementation challenges? All these questions and more will be posed, discussed, and debated during the Data Quality and Risk Workshop Day at FIMA.

Operational planning is a critical aspect of an implementation activities, roles, interdependencies and tools must be defined to ensure a data quality program manages what matters, leverages existing operational capabilities and is valued by internal clients.

I got a lot of value out of the informal discussions during the roundtable day at FIMA. People seemed a lot more candid about the challenges they were facing and we all shared ideas for how to address them.
Tracey Plantier, Managing Director, Babson Capital Management
Addressing this issue requires taking an operational perspective by looking at the Processes outcomes and supporting processes required to achieve the desired end Resources state. Understanding what and how staff are going to work the data through the resolution life cycle is an important consideration of any data management program. Classic organizational design questions will be addressed, including: What activities will contribute to desired outcomes? What are the core activities of the group? Who will the group need to work with, rely Clients upon, and deliver to? What are the inputs and outputs?
Ops Firms already have well defined operations processes to support manual data DQ IT management such as security setups, corporate actions updates and data repair. As a data management program is implemented, new activities will be created such as reconciliations or the detection of suspect data often in large volumes requiring bulk repair.
Useful and informative when seeking information on how companies are approaching centralization of reference data
Natalie Williams, Business Analyst, HSBC
The process of Getting To Day 1, takes data management outcomes and to drive the activities, tools and relationships to be integrated into an operations function.
