Description

Analytics is an emerging competency and an evolutionary step beyond traditional reporting and dashboarding, making it both an asset and liability to organizations. Organizations are currently implementing advanced analytic capabilities which require additional considerations not addressed by existing governance frameworks. A distinct analytics governance framework would help address issues surrounding the policies and processes of the analytics function. These issues include human capital development, integration of analytics into the broader enterprise, and legal and regulatory concerns. In this paper, we move towards defining an analytics governance framework by devising a set of guiding principles.
