Data Quality is now more important than ever before. According to Gartner (2011), poor data quality is the primary reason why 40% of all business initiatives fail to achieve their targeted benefits.

As a response, Deloitte Belgium has developed a data quality framework specifically designed to assess the data risks and data health. The framework facilitates analysis and provides insights into the root causes of poor data quality. It also offers appropriate remediation recommendations to enhance data standardization activities.

Data quality monitoring is performed on an ongoing basis to ensure sustainable data quality. The framework is a continuing process and recognizes the strategic and tactical goals of an enterprise. Moreover, it is designed to enable jumpstarting business initiatives ranging from a standard upgrade to full business transformation initiatives.

Deloitte Belgium has several references of agile projects where a first data quality assessment with a full working dashboard was set up in less than two weeks.
