This article discusses the need to try and gauge how success of an information management practice.
As the article points out, "Effective information governance programs can help organizations keep control of both their structured data and the growing volumes of documents and other unstructured data being stored electronically. But for many information governance program managers, proving the value of governance initiatives can be a complicated matter, particularly if corporate executives want to see tangible results from an enterprise’s investment in governance processes before offering support or renewing funding."
The article discusses ways to measure success, such as looking at personal case studies, or measuring one specific aspect of a program. The article provides quotes from various industry professionals.
Jill Dyche, co-founder of Baseline Consulting Group Inc. is quoted as saying, "Start with a small, controlled project based on an acknowledged business problem that information problems are enabling, Dyche suggested. “Build some formal processes and rules around accessing, cleansing, integrating and deploying that data,” she said, adding that when demonstrable results and improvements have been repeated a few times, sound information governance practices should become systemic."
