Challenge: Governance for DWH migration

The client needed to establish effective Data Governance across multiple entities with different organisational structures, data architectures, and ongoing initiatives. At the same time, governance had to be practical, adoptable, and directly support upcoming Data Warehouse migration efforts.

Key challenges included:

A compressed eight-week delivery timeline
4 legal entities across 3 countries
Aligning governance with existing and planned data initiatives

Solution: Data Governance framework & playbook

Sollers designed a pragmatic Data Governance approach tailored to each entity while maintaining group-level consistency.

Governance assessment and design

We identified data-related issues and assessed the most suitable Data Governance model for each organisation.

Entity-specific governance frameworks

Dedicated frameworks were created for each company, aligned with local operating models and designed to support Data Warehouse migration.

Governance playbook and enablement

A comprehensive Data Governance Playbook defined policies, processes, roles, and enforcement mechanisms for managing and protecting data assets.

Stakeholder alignment

Workshops with business and IT stakeholders helped align governance objectives with business goals and build a shared understanding of data priorities.
