Purpose
Data governance helps to ensure that data is usable, accessible, and protected. At its core, data governance leads to improved data quality, decreased data management costs, and increased access to data for all stakeholders. The result is better decision making and better business outcomes. Data governance encompasses the people, processes and technologies required to manage and protect data assets. Our mission is to enhance the value, quality, security, and understanding of data through coordinated efforts of statewide stakeholders.
The purpose of the Indiana Data Governance Council is to establish and formalize a cross domain, interdisciplinary group to further the data-driven capacity of organizations and the State as a whole. The Indiana Data Governance Council strives to define and instill policies, standards and the enterprise data architecture to help identify and resolve risk and enable the State to use Hoosier data.
