IIQ DMIQ Services Overview

Data Management IQ (DMIQ) is both a professional data enablement practice as well as a foundational way of thinking at InfiniteIQ. It is not a single service, but our approach to advancing our clients' ability to manage, unify, secure, democratize and activate the data they capture. Our goal is to ensure your data programs make a positive and long lasting impact on your organization.

Many of today's more advanced technology projects and programs (e.g., Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, Business Analytics, and Customer 360) are stalled by the readiness of their data management capabilities, processes and data quality. DMIQ is tailormade to identify those bottlenecks and address them head on to ensure our clients are in a position to benefit from these game changing technologies. Fundamentally, DMIQ approaches each engagement by rapidly assessing client readiness from multiple dimensions, leveraging the EDM Council's industry standard benchmark, Data Management Capability Assessment = DCAMTM as its core to align the business strategy to the organization's capability to execute and enable that strategy. We engage with our clients on both very broad projects (e.g., enterprise data strategy modernization, data governance program establishment and master data management (MDM) programs) as well as in a focused project centric manner as listed below.

Data Cataloging and Governance

  • Becoming data driven is a journey, and to do so companies must manage data as they do other strategic and financial assets. We need to have confidence in, account for, secure, and govern it. This requires all three legs of the people, process, and technology triad. We help our clients:
  • Align data strategy to business strategy
  • Align data and business strategy to technology
  • Introduce tooling appropriate to achieving strategic and tactical goals - one size does not fit all
  • Assess, PoC and implement best-fit for culture data catalogs and metadata management
  • Plan, create, implement or enhance data governance initiatives with an agile and achievable approach
  • Establish or assess operational frameworks
  • Establish communications plans including training and the ethical handling of data
  • Establish chain of custody
  • Identify data assets across the enterprise
  • Break down silos and democratize data

Data Quality and Integration

  • Confidence in analytics, the ability to leverage modern technologies such as ML, AI, and CDPs (Customer Data Platforms) are table stakes now. However, many companies make a very costly mistake - they forget that without data hygiene and quality, the money invested in these modern technologies is wasted. Data quality is paramount to a company’s ability to operate, strategize and compete. We help our clients with the following engagements:
  • Initial data quality assessments (profiling, baselining and documentation)
  • Identify critical data and business rules
  • Prioritized improvement and/or integration roadmap
  • Goal setting and metrics establishment
  • Formulate Master and Reference data strategies
  • Establish data lineage and impact management
  • Assess, select, PoC, and implement Master and Reference data platforms
  • Develop and implement data quality and operations for sustained improvement
  • Ensure a state of readiness for actionable analytics and reporting, AI, ML and Customer 360o

Platform and Architecture

  • Most companies do not have the luxury of establishing net new architectures. However, there typically comes a point in a company’s lifecycle where either the existing data platform(s) and architectures become a limiting factor to the ability of the company to compete successfully. We have decades of experience refactoring and improving existing architectures and when necessary, helping our clients vet and establish net new environments. Common services we partner with our clients are:
  • Migration or embracing of cloud services (Private, Public, and Hybrid)
  • Integration architecture and platform planning and implementation (ETL, ELT, ESB, Replication, CEP, Federation, Virtualization, Pub/Sub, and Sync/Async)
