Data Management & Governance Services

Data management services help organisations trust their data, understand its complexities, and ensure alignment across business and IT teams. Xebia's approach covers maturity assessment, framework implementation, and embedding data management in strategic use cases — addressing people, processes, and technology.

Xebia assesses data management maturity against established market standards including DAMA (Data Management Body of Knowledge). The assessment includes compliance checks and capability reviews across all dimensions of the DM Maturity Framework, producing an estimated maturity level of your organisation. A pragmatic implementation approach with actionable roadmaps is then defined in the Strategizing phase.

Data management is the broad discipline of collecting, storing, and using data effectively across an organisation. Data governance is a specific subset that defines the policies, standards, and accountabilities for how data is managed — ensuring accuracy, compliance (e.g. GDPR), and trusted access across the organisation.

Xebia follows a structured four-step approach: Assessing (maturity and current challenges), Strategizing (defining frameworks for sustainable growth), Implementing (scalable solutions tailored to organisational needs), and Embedding (fostering a culture of collaboration among business, IT, and data teams).

We ensure alignment with established market standards, such as DAMA (Data Management Body of Knowledge). Our Data Management Maturity Assessment includes compliance checks and capability reviews against these frameworks to ensure your strategy is robust and standardised.

Key benefits include gaining full control and understanding of your data estate, enabling informed decision-making with trusted data insights, fostering crucial cross-functional collaboration, and ensuring compliance with strict regulations like GDPR and other policies.
