WHAT WILL YOU GET
1. Improve compliance, reduce risk.
Information Governance helps to ensure that the information available to the business is appropriate and up-to-date. It should be underpinned by a process of automated categorization and tagging, as well as clearly defined procedures for the archival and ‘defensible’ destruction of information.
As the regulatory environment changes and grows, gathering data for an audit can be achieved simply and efficiently. Record retention can be automatically built into the process, as can effective information security procedures to minimize business risk.
2. Increase business agility through improved decision making
Big Data applications are increasingly important for many large organisations. The business collects massive amounts of data through its daily operations and the ability to analyse and interpret trends within that data enables fast and accurate business decisions.
Information Governance outlines at a strategic level how that information will be made available to business users. It sets out how unstructured information from both inside and outside the company can be combined with the structured data held in corporate databases to drive business agility.
3. Increase profitability though shortened sales cycles
Information Governance works with business users to fully understand how to deliver information with the greatest business value to users in their daily roles. For example, with contextual information, sales people have a greater knowledge of customers and prospects, can make informed and empowered decisions and can close more business earlier in the sales cycle.
4. Improve employee productivity
When there is so much information, it is often difficult to locate the information you need – or even know it exists. A recent survey suggested that US companies lose $900 million in lost productivity each year for this type of information overload.
Information Governance can ensure that there are as few versions of a document or piece of information as possible and that the information is stored appropriately for the people that need to access it.
5. Significantly reduce the costs of information storage and administration
With as few versions of information as possible and clear automated archival and deletion policies established, organisations can save a significant amount of money on their storage and IT infrastructure.
Information Governance highlights where legacy data that provides no value still resides within the company. Often, much of the information within an organisation will have outlasted the person who put it there anyway. It will also identify entire applications and systems that are obsolete but still consuming space and management costs.
