Data Strategy

Growth is a constant goal for today's businesses, whether organic, through market penetration, customer segmentation, new market and product development, or non-organic growth through M&A and affiliations. Unfortunately, Data oversight while this growth occurs is often not given priority. This status quo results in integration overheads, risk of exposure, and reputational damage from the lack of standards that many organizations are experiencing today.

Likewise, cost reduction and spend optimization have become crucial to compete. Establishing key cost levers and renegotiating contracts to support this initiative will require top-down data analysis and consolidation. Unfortunately, many consolidation efforts fail to yield expected outcomes due to poorly managed data standards, inconsistent processes across affiliates and acquisition sites, etc.

The idea that "Data" is a "Business" owned asset and "Technology" is synonymous with "IT" deepened the schism between "Information" and "Technology" within the IT capability of large organizations.

On the positive side, some companies have shown measurable business improvement by adopting Data Strategies starting from the C-suite down to the Sites/Stores. These companies continue to monetize their Data assets and outsell competition with their "Digital = Data" mindset.
