Making data usable
Data quality and ownership across the entire chain
Familiar challenges
Different figures
Multiple versions of the same figures circulate within the organisation.
Scattered sources
Data is spread across different systems and files.
Unclear definitions
What is an ‘active customer’? Every department calculates it differently.
No ownership
No one is responsible for the quality of a dataset.
Questions we help answer
- How do we combine sales, stock and production figures?
- How do we establish one consistent foundation for reporting?
- How do we make historical data usable?
- How do we organise data quality, definitions and ownership?
A data warehouse brings together structured data for reporting and analysis. A data lake also collects raw and diverse data for further processing. They often complement each other.

Take control of your data
Reclaim your IT freedom applies to data too. Information that is only accessible through a single source application makes you dependent on that package for every report or new application.
By making data available in a structured way outside the application where it originates, the same information can support reporting, other applications and AI. Replacing a source system also becomes a more manageable exercise.
From agreements to implementation
Data governance also involves organisational work: who owns the data, which definitions apply and who gets access. This page focuses on the technical implementation of those agreements, in data models, checks and access control.
