Workshop
Overview
While many companies still view data as an afterthought,
some executives are starting to view their corporate data
as an asset to enable growth and profit. They are ready
to dedicate the necessary funding and resources to treat
it that way.
Baseline’s Information Center of Excellence (ICE)
Design Workshop brings together key resources to design
a centralized information management function that results
in more economic and effective exploitation and protection
of the shared data asset. The workshop helps the enterprise
leverage existing infrastructure and resources to cross
the chasm from systems data management to corporate data
asset management.
The service includes pre-session consulting to identify
the participants. Lecture and discussions establish a foundation
of data management concepts, principles and issues. Practical
exercises result in the artifacts required to organize,
fill and launch an umbrella organization whose mission is
to manage shared data as a corporate asset. Participants
will leave the workshop ready to implement the next day.
