This document provides comprehensive information regarding the Data Quality Assessment Framework (DQAF), authored by Sebastian-Coleman, Laura, and published by Morgan Kaufmann. The framework is designed for measuring and monitoring data quality to facilitate ongoing improvement within any organization, independent of specific technologies. It offers a plain-language approach, making complex data quality concepts accessible to both business and IT professionals. The framework encompasses key dimensions such as Completeness, Timeliness, Consistency, Validity, and Integrity, and describes over three dozen measurement types.
The purpose of this manual is to guide users in implementing and applying the DQAF. It delivers practical advice on applying the framework to data assets, strategies for leveraging data measurement for governance and improvement, and conceptual models for storing data quality results for trend analysis. The content focuses on generic business requirements for continuous measurement and monitoring, including calculations and comparisons essential for meaningful measurements and trend detection. This resource is intended for anyone involved in assessing, governing, or improving data quality.
The Data Quality Assessment Framework shows you how to measure and monitor data quality, ensuring quality over time. You'll start with general concepts of measurement and work your way through a detailed framework of more than three dozen measurement types related to five objective dimensions of quality: completeness, timeliness, consistency, validity, and integrity. Ongoing measurement, rather than one time activities will help your organization reach a new level of data quality. This plain-language approach to measuring data can be understood by both business and IT and provides practical guidance on how to apply the DQAF within any organization enabling you to prioritize measurements and effectively report on results. Strategies for using data measurement to govern and improve the quality of data and guidelines for applying the framework within a data asset are included. You'll come away able to prioritize which measurement types to implement, knowing where to place them in a data flow and how frequently to measure. Common conceptual models for defining and storing of data quality results for purposes of trend analysis are also included as well as generic business requirements for ongoing measuring and monitoring including calculations and comparisons that make the measurements meaningful and help understand trends and detect anomalies.
- Demonstrates how to leverage a technology independent data quality measurement framework for your specific business priorities and data quality challenges
- Enables discussions between business and IT with a non-technical vocabulary for data quality measurement
- Describes how to measure data quality on an ongoing basis with generic measurement types that can be applied to any situation
