Practicality and profitability may share a page in the dictionary, but incorporating both into a data management plan can prove challenging. Many data professionals struggle to demonstrate tangible returns on data management investments, especially in industries such as healthcare where financial results aren’t necessarily an organization’s primary concern. The key to “monetizing” data management, therefore, is thinking about data in a different way: as an information solution rather than simply an IT one, using data to drive decision-making towards increased profits and potentially alternative returns on investment or value outcomes as well. Taking a broader view of data assets facilitates easier sharing of information across organizational silos, and allows for a wider understanding of the investment’s requirements and benefits.
In this webinar—designed to appeal to both business and IT attendees—your presenter will:
Describe multiple types of value produced through data-centric development and management practices
Expand on and beyond metrics meant for increasing revenues or decreasing costs—i.e. investments that directly impact an organization’s financial position
Detail how alternative statistics and valuations can be used to justify data management and quality initiatives

about how organizations are finding ways to monitize their data
assets. By that I mean finding ways to generate income using their
data assets or the insights derived from those assets."

• "A book you can read from cover to cover on an
airplane trip or during lunch over a period of days. I'm very big on
stories, and the book contains many stories from the authors'
experiences on how to valuate data management. It helped me
brainstorm on a presentation I was working on to explain the value
of our enterprise information management initiative."
• "A concise summary of how to put a value on data management in
your organization. I would not categorize this book as a "how to"
guide - more of a brainstorming book to help someone come up
with a value for their hard data management work. Great stories
and tangible results!"

11. Why Is Data Management Important?
• Too much data leads directly to wasted productivity
– Eighty percent (80%) of organizational data is
redundant, obsolete or trivial (ROT)
• Underutilized data leads directly to poorly leveraged
organizational resources
– Manpower – costs associated with labor resources and
market share
– Money – costs associated
with management of
financial resources
– Methods – costs associated
with operational processes and product delivery
– Machines – costs associated with hardware, software
applications and data to enhance production capability

Incorrect Educational Focus
• Building new systems
– 80% of IT costs are spent rebuilding and evolving
existing systems and only 20% of costs are
spent building and acquiring new systems
– Putting fresh graduates on new projects makes this proposition more ridiculous
– Only the most experienced professionals should be allowed to participate in new
systems development.
• Who is responsible for managing data assets?
– Business thinks IT is taking care of it - it is called IT after all?
– IT thinks if you can sign on to the system their job is complete
• System development practices
– Data evolution is separate from, external to and must precede system
development life cycle activities!
– Data is not a project - it has no distinct beginning and end

Projects
Strategy
• In support of strategy, organizations
implement IT projects
• Data/information are typically
considered within the scope of IT
projects
• Problems with this approach:
– Ensures data is formed to the
applications and not around the
organizational-wide information
requirements
– Process are narrowly formed around
applications
– Very little data reuse is possible

goals/objectives
• These organizational data goals/
objectives drive the development of
specific IT projects with an eye to
organization-wide usage
• Advantages of this approach:
– Data/information assets are developed from an
organization-wide perspective
– Systems support organizational data needs and
compliment organizational process flows
– Maximum data/information reuse

15. Monetizing
• Monetization is the process of converting or
establishing something into legal tender.
• It usually refers to the printing of banknotes by
central banks, but things such as gold, diamonds
and emeralds, and art can also be monetized.
• Even intrinsically worthless items can be made
into money, as long as they are difficult to make
or acquire.

• What is meant by a process
orientation?
– Reunifying tasks into coherent

and assumptions that underlie current

23. Business Implications
• National Stock Number (NSN)
Discrepancies
– If NSNs in LUAF, GABF, and RTLS are
not present in the MHIF, these records
cannot be updated in SASSY
– Additional overhead is created to correct
data before performing the real
maintenance of records
• Serial Number Duplication
– If multiple items are assigned the same
serial number in RTLS, the traceability of
those items is severely impacted
– Approximately $531 million of SAC 3
items have duplicated serial numbers
• On-Hand Quantity Discrepancies
– If the LUAF O/H QTY and number of items serialized in RTLS conflict, there can be
no clear answer as to how many items a unit actually has on-hand
– Approximately $5 billion of equipment does not tie out between the LUAF & RTLS
45

Improving Data Quality during System Migration
• Challenge
– Millions of NSN/SKUs
maintained in a catalog
– Key and other data stored in
clear text/comment fields
– Original suggestion was manual
approach to text extraction
– Left the data structuring problem unsolved
• Solution
– Proprietary, improvable text extraction process
– Converted non-tabular data into tabular data
– Saved a minimum of $5 million
– Literally person centuries of work

27. Friendly Fire deaths traced to Dead Battery
In one of the more horrifying incidents I've read about, U.S. soldiers and allies were
killed in December 2001 because of a stunningly poor design of a GPS receiver, plus
"human error."
A U.S. Special Forces air controller was calling in GPS positioning from some sort of
battery-powered device. He "had used the GPS receiver to calculate the latitude and
longitude of the Taliban position in minutes and seconds for an airstrike by a Navy F/
A-18."
According to the *Post* story, the bomber crew "required" a "second
calculation in 'degree decimals'" -- why the crew did not have equipment to
perform the minutes-seconds conversion themselves is not explained.
The air controller had recorded the correct value in the GPS receiver when the battery
died. Upon replacing the battery, he called in the degree-decimal position the unit was
showing -- without realizing that the unit is set up to reset to its *own* position when
the battery is replaced. The 2,000-pound bomb landed on his position, killing three
Special Forces soldiers and injuring 20 others.
If the information in this story is accurate, the RISKS involve replacing memory
settings with an apparently-valid default value instead of blinking 0 or some other
obviously-wrong display; not having a backup battery to hold values in memory during
battery replacement; not equipping users to translate one coordinate system to

29. Senior Army Official
• Room full of Colonels
• A very heavy dose of management support
• Advised the group of his opinion on the matter
• Any questions as to future direction
– "They should make an appointment to speak
directly with me!"
• Empower the team
– The conversation turned from "can this be done?" to "how
are we going to accomplish this?"
– Mistakes along the way would be tolerated
– Implement a workable solution in prototype form

31. Points of Contention
• Who owned the risks?
• Who was the project
manager?
• Was the data of poor
quality?
• Did the contractor
(Company Y) exercise
due diligence?
• Was their
methodology
adequate?
• Were required
standards of care
followed and
were the work
products of required
quality?

Expert Reports
Ours provided evidence that :
1. Company Y's conversion code introduced
errors into the data
2. Some data that Company Y converted was of
measurably lower quality than the quality of the data
before the conversion
3. Company Y caused harm by not performing an analysis
of the Company X's legacy systems and that that the
required analysis was not a part of any project plan used
by Company Y
4. Company Y caused harm by withholding specific
information relating to the perception of the on-site
consultants' views on potential project success

The defendant knew to
prevent duplicate SSNs
AJHR0213_CAN_UPDATE.SQR
The exclamation point
prevents this line from
looking for duplicates, so
no check is made for a
duplicate SSN/National ID
Legacy systems business
rules allowed employees to
have more than one
