+What is Data Quality?
“Fit for Purpose…” (Larry English IAIQM)
Data are of high quality "if they are fit for their intended uses in operations, decision making and planning: (J.M. Juran)
“The processes and technologies involved in ensuring the conformance of data values to business requirements and acceptance criteria” (Wikipedia)
+What is Data Quality?
Data that is: Authentic Accessible / Available Accurate / Valid Complete Consistent Current / up to date Secure Complies with business requirements…
+The Cost of poor Data Quality
“The Johannesburg Attorneys' Association (JAA) is becoming increasingly frustrated by the City of Johannesburg's delays in issuing rate certificates, and is threatening to take the matter to court. The association says thousands of rate clearance certificates have been outstanding since October, when the city started upgrading its computer systems to SAP.” Ratepayers carry unnecessary costs such as occupational
rent Legal processes are delayed and result in additional
unnecessary costs
+The Cost of poor Data Quality
Bad press therefore Loss of confidence
Unnecessary expenditure as a result of undelivered mail
Unnecessary costs as a result of rework
Ratepayers carry unnecessary costs
Court cases e.g Legal Costs
Imprisonment for falsifying information…
