For Data Strategy to be successful it's necessary that it should be intertwined with main stakeholders' vision and solve problems. Out talks with senior management are aimed at finding the ways Data could help them achieve their goals. We also pay close attention to the risks they see and try to understand company organizational structure.

Most of the Data Strategies we've seen are good on paper but successful execution depends on effots of the team. This is why we talk to the current team to get low-level insights into potential obstacles. As a result Data Strategy gets refined to the organizational structure.

Next crucial step is to assess what Architecture and Infrastructure company already has. At this stage we formulate our recommendations on how to develop existing components and which parts should be added. This allows to transform Strategy into actionable plan.

At this final step we fit all the parts - company goals, existing talent and technical solutions - together. We define KPIs for each component which allow management team to track progress.
