Improve your data with the six data metrics.
Data quality initiatives are generally centered on improving these metrics so that enterprise data can support the optimal performance of business systems and support users’ faith in the systems’ reliability.
Regardless of an organization’s size, function, or industry, they all need to pay attention to data quality in order to understand their business and to make sound business decisions. Business decisions are unquestionably impacted by the quality of data being used ; the better the data is, the more effective the decisions will be.
Companies therefore must agree on data quality standards based not only on the dimensions themselves — and, of course, any external standards that data quality must meet — but also on the consequences of not meeting
them.
