Abstract:
|
One of my agency's strategic management goals over the next several years is to improve the accuracy, consistency and integrity of the data contained in several of our important databases. This effort, from initiation through improvement identification to management presentation of Benefits and Costs, is presented and discussed in this paper. I show how I modified standard Data Quality improvement processes used by industry to fit the needs and resources of a small government agency. This adaptation will be presented step by step, with discussion on decisions made and progress to date.
