Data Governance

Optimize your internal processes to ensure high data quality, compliance, and efficient data management. This provides a solid foundation for creating value, accelerating time-to-market, and boosting digital growth.

Less time on errors, more time on business

How much time does your team spend creating and maintaining product data? And how often do errors occur that require urgent fixes? Keeping product data up-to-date and consistent across channels can be a challenge. Without clear processes, you risk costly errors that impact both efficiency and customer experience. The solution is data governance. And we’re here to help you get started.

What is data governance?

Data governance ensures that a company’s data is managed correctly, reliably, and in compliance with both legislation and business objectives. It involves clear policies, procedures, and accountability, ensuring high-quality data at all times. With increasing demands from both customers and regulators, a strong data governance strategy is more important than ever. It ensures data accuracy, minimizes errors, and reduces manual handling.

Data flows throughout the organization — from development to marketing to sales. Each department is responsible for its part of the data, which ensures structure, quality, and efficient processes. With clearly defined roles and ownership, you minimize errors and strengthen cross-functional collaboration.

The path to better data governance

Data governance is about managing and structuring ownership and data. But before you can build a strong governance structure, your data foundation must be in place. A solid data foundation ensures that necessary data is accessible, structured, and easy to use. This makes it possible to assign ownership, ensure consistency, and use data effectively across systems and business units.

PIM as the foundation for a data foundation

A Product Information Management (PIM) system structures data from multiple sources and ensures it can be effectively distributed to all relevant channels — from websites and marketplaces to quality departments, data pools, and regulatory bodies. This gives you a consolidated overview of all data sources in one place. While some data points — such as product numbers and barcodes — may still be pulled directly from your ERP system, PIM serves as the central platform for product information.

With a strong data foundation, your data is structured, accessible, and high-quality — exactly when you need it. This optimizes workflows and reduces the costs of manual data handling.
