Supply chain and labor shortage issues in most industries have highlighted the need for well-defined yet adaptable asset management practices. The same goes for managing data assets. For physical assets, financial assets, technology assets, and even human capital, accepted standards regulate the handling, flow, and utilization of resources. Yet no comparable overarching set of principles and standards exists for data. Moreover, we data professionals, rather than paying homage to the way other assets are managed, have been making it up as we go, creating an obtuse vernacular that further distances us from the businesspeople we serve.

In this course, Amie Richards will show students how key concepts from the traditional world of asset and supply chain management can and should be applied to enterprise data assets.
