Recommendation

You’ve got a couple of important data initiatives lined up for your department, and so does every other department at your company. Progress is slow, or rather it’s fast, but still slower than it needs to be to compete in a rapidly digitizing economy. How can you speed things up? This Boston Consulting Group article suggests that every unit in the company – the IT side, the business side – come together and define the company’s broad digital goals, so each new initiative will support the development of the data use cases that will emerge in the future.

Take-Aways

  • For speedy digital maturity, the business and IT sides of your company must come together to define company goals and coordinate data initiatives. 
  • Identify your data use cases, and prioritize them by which are most feasible and which will get the fastest results.
  • Take an honest inventory of your company’s data assets, and update your data and technology infrastructure according to future data use cases.
