What does it mean to treat data as an organizational asset?
• Assets are economic resources
– Must own or control
– Must use to produce value
– Value can be converted into cash
• An asset is a resource controlled by
the organization as a result of past
events or transactions and from
which future economic benefits are
expected to flow to the organization
[Wikipedia]
• With assets:
– Formalize the care and feeding of data
• Cash management - HR planning
– Put data to work in unique and
significant ways
• Identify data the organization will need
[Redman 2008]

16. Copyright 2013 by Data Blueprint
Motivation
• "We want to move our data management
program to the next level"
– Question: What level are you at now?
• You are currently managing your data,
– But, if you can't measure it,
– How can you manage it effectively?
• How do you know where to put time, money,
and energy so that data management best
supports the mission?
"One day Alice came to a fork in the road and
saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. Which road do I
take? she asked. Where do you want to go?
was his response. I don't know, Alice
answered. Then, said the cat, it doesn't
matter."

DoD Origins
• US DoD Reverse Engineering
Program Manager
• We sponsored research at the
CMM/SEI asking
– “How can we measure the
performance of DoD and our
partners?”
– “Go check out what the Navy is up to!”
• SEI responded with an integrated
process/data improvement
approach
– DoD required SEI to remove the data
portion of the approach
– It grew into CMMI/DM BoK, etc.

22. DMM Drivers and Bio
• Data management broad and
complex = challenging
• An effective enterprise data
management program requires
a planned strategic effort
• Organizations needed a
comprehensive reference
model to precisely evaluate
data management capabilities
• DMM was targeted to unify
understanding, interests, and
priorities of lines of business,
IT, and the data management
function
• Foundation for collaborative and
sustained process
improvement.

25
26. Data Management Maturity (DMM)SM Model
• The DMM was released on
August 7, 2014
– 20+ years preparation
– 3.5 years in development
– 4 Sponsoring organizations
– 50+ contributing authors
– 70 peer reviewers
– 80+ organizations
– 230 content pages
– 300+ Practice Statements
– 300+ Work Products
26
27. DMM’s Orientation
• Data assets = vital infrastructure component
• An assessment against the DMM is a strategic initiative
• Takes aim at the biggest challenges:
– Clearly communicating to the business
– Aligning of business with IT/DM
– Organization-wide perspective
• State of the practice vs. state of the art
• Industry independent.
27
28. It Takes a Village
• The lines of business own the data
they create and manage
• Typically, not fully aware of the
implications, e.g.
– Determine acceptable quality levels
– Work with peers to clarify shared data
– Pinpoint what they need to know about
their data, etc.
• DMM emphasizes business decisions
• Organization-wide perspective is
needed – ‘my needs’ and ‘their
needs’ become ‘our needs’
• It is a powerful tool to create a shared
vision and unify diverse audiences
28
29. What the DMM is Not
• Not a compendium of all data
management knowledge
• Does not address every topic and sub-
topic that’s important
• 35+ years of evolution
• Foundational thinkers
• Talented vendors
• Wealth of collective experience
• Fully mature industry practices.
• Too much specificity = 1000+ pages
• Not a cookbook
• Doesn’t identify the “one best way”
29
30. • Process Area sections - (Purpose, Introduction, Goals,
Questions, Related Process Areas, Practice Statements
and Work Products) - are consistent with each other
• Orthogonal with other process areas (Can stand alone)
• Practice statements are grouped by level
• Set of statements is sufficiently detailed to convey
understanding
• Condensed statements with judicious abstraction
• Maturity factors - Infrastructure Support Practices (Generic
Practices in the CMMI)
Model Development Principles
30
The next few slides are a Quick Tour of principles applied to build the DMM
31. You Are What You DO
• Model emphasizes behavior –
– Creating effective, repeatable processes
– Leveraging and extending across the organization
• Activities result in work products
– Processes, standards, guidelines, templates, policies, etc.
– Reuse and extension = maximum value
• Non-prescriptive – technology, architectural approaches,
organizational structures, etc.
• Too much specificity = 1000+ pages = overwhelming and
forces organization into non-optimal solutions
31
32. Independent Process Areas
• Every organization performs data
management disciplines
• What is emphasized is what grows –
changing priorities
• Can become piecemeal – focus on highest
pain, not root causes
• DMM Process Areas were designed to
stand alone for evaluation
• Reflects real-world organizations
• Simplifies the data management landscape
for all parties
• Because “everything is connected”
relationships are indicated
32
33. Practice Statement Principles
• Functional practice statements should adhere to these
quality criteria:
– Unambiguous (hard to assess "appropriate")
– What, not how (does not specify implementation method)
– Orthogonal (non-overlapping)
– Precise and demonstrated by evidence (work products)
– Each statement represents one idea
33
34. Practice Statement Elaborations
• Some statements are intuitively obvious – Yes, No, or Partial
• Others may require additional information to understand
– Contextual information to explain what is meant by the singular
statement
– Expand upon the statement for operational use, acceptable
assessment evidence, implementation suggestions, etc.
– Establish boundaries for the statement - what is included versus
what is not
• Roughly 75% of practice statements have elaborations
34
3.3 A defined process for specifying benefits and costs for data quality initiatives is employed
to guide data quality strategy implementation.!
!
The data quality strategy should provide justification for the value and importance of implementation
outcomes. A clear value proposition should be established for executing the strategy. Determination of the
benefits and costs of data quality may include an ROI analysis, cost implications of defects, and business
opportunities tied to improvements.
36. Infrastructure Support Practices = Maturity
• Adopted from CMMI:
– Level 2 - Institutionalize as a Managed Process
• Establish an Organizational Policy
• Plan the Process
• Provide Resources
• Assign Responsibility
• Train People
• Manage Configurations
• Identify and Involve Relevant Stakeholders
• Monitor and Control the Process
• Objectively Evaluate Adherence
• Review Status with Higher Level Management
– Level 3 - Institutionalize Organizational Standards
• Establish Standards
• Provide Assets that Support the Use of the Standard Process
• Plan and Monitor the Process Using a Defined Process
• Collect Process-Related Experiences to Support Future Use
36
38. One concept for process
improvement, others include:
• Norton Stage Theory
• TQM
• TQdM
• TDQM
• ISO 9000
!
and focus on understanding
current processes and
determining where to make
improvements.

46. Why the DMM is useful
• Powerful educational tool
• A gradated path for improvement - collective wisdom to
guide practical action and implementation
• WHAT to implement, not HOW – how is situationally,
technically, and culturally dependent
• Unparalleled tool for performing thorough and efficient gap
analyses - in record time - for identifying both:
• Capabilities needing strengthening
• Strengths you can build on and extend
• Undiscovered capabilities
• Builds financial, moral, and labor support (coalition of the
willing)
46
47. Measurement = Confidence
• Activity-focused and
evidence-based evaluation
of the data management
program
• Allows organizations to gauge
their data management
achievements against peers
• Fuels enthusiasm and funding
for improvement initiatives
• Enhances an organization’s
reputation – quality and
progress

51. Starting the Journey - DMM Assessment Method
• DMM can be used as a standalone guide!
• To maximize its value as a catalyst - forging shared perspective and accelerating
the program, our method:!
– Provides interactive launch collaboration event with broad range of stakeholder!
– Evaluates capabilities collectively by consensus affirmations!
– Facilitates unification of factions - everyone has a voice / role
– Solicits key business input through supplemental interviews!
– Verifies capability evaluation with work product reviews (evidence)!
– Report and executive briefing presents Scoring, Findings, Observations, Strengths,
and targeted specific Recommendations. !
• In the near future, audit-level rigor will be introduced to serve as a benchmark of
maturity, leveraging the CMMI Appraisal method.
To date, over 200 individuals from business, IT, and data management in early adopter organizations have
employed the DMM - practice by practice, work product by work product - to evaluate their capabilities.
