Data Maturity Assessment​

The assessment focusses on 12 dimensions and their impact on data within an organisation. The evidence-based approach is conducted through a series of interactive workshops with stakeholders from across an organisation.

The consolidated output will clearly articulate the current and desired states data maturity. Combining deep business understanding with our insights, experience and research, enables us together to determine the focus for a business and the way ahead for data improvements.

Our unique and structured approach provides a framework to continue to assess data maturity on an ongoing basis to deliver improvements across an organisation’s data management capability. It is intended that the maturity assessment framework is repeated periodically, usually every 12 to 18 months, allowing an organisation to demonstrate the positive progress made and ensure future planning reflects business priorities.

“The maturity assessment enabled us to think differently and more holistically about data and how this is managed across the organisation. This method enabled us to really understand the various pain points across our data journeys, identifying where we can make the biggest difference. It also provided us with a platform for buy-in within the organisation.

Our consultants will guide an organisation through each area, developing an understanding of the key element and leading discussions to identify the current and future aspirational maturity level for each element within an organisation.

The results from the assessment are consolidated into an overarching maturity assessment and report, providing insight and recommendations on where to focus improvement efforts.
