Go beyond the platform

Flashy tools might make data look cool, but without clear principles and rules in place, they won’t do much for accuracy, efficiency or effectiveness. That’s where our Data Governance offer comes in.

Make your data count

Data is only valuable when it’s managed and used consistently and compliantly. Get that right, and you’ll lower regulatory risk, boost data literacy and enhance data quality and accountability too.

The Lighthouse Method

By using a series of smaller projects that get those quick wins in the bag, we’ll help you implement data governance in stealth mode – perfect for getting leadership buy-in and returns with maximum speed and minimum hassle.

Data Governance with Oakland will help you.

Control your data generation to get quality and outcomes you can count on

Back your most valuable decisions and make meaningful improvements

Assign clear data ownership to spread workload and boost quality

Set the right standards for trustworthy measurement

Keep internal and external risk levels at an all-time low

Data Quality Assessment

From completeness to consistency

First, our Data Quality Assessment evaluates your data based on the essential quality benchmarks:

● Completeness
● Accuracy
● Consistency
● Integrity
● Timeliness

Then, we’ll walk you through the results and give you expert recommendations, business rules and threshold suggestions to help you fix any issues and keep quality sky-high.

Data maturity

Refine your investment. Hit your targets.

The way you govern your data is super important in managing your portfolio, creating a culture of ownership and getting everyone on board with working towards better quality data with fewer risks.

Data ownership design

Stay accountable with Data Ownership

Great data ownership right means having people who are accountable and responsible for defining, maintaining and using data in the right ways. It means giving your employees the freedom to do their jobs better, every day.

Right people, right time

With a powerful, Oakland-designed Data Ownership model in place, everyone will know exactly where to go with questions or proposed changes to data.
