The EDM Council has introduced a Data Excellence Program offering standardised measurement and recognition of data management excellence at the organisational level. The initiative aims to acknowledge organisations that are dedicated to continuous improvement and excellence in data management based on globally recognised best practices.
Key elements of the Data Excellence Program include:
- Data management team training and certification based on the Data Management Capability Assessment Model (DCAM) framework
- Independent assessments and capability improvement plans conducted with EDM Council certified partners
- Recognition of achievement
- A global data management benchmark repository
“The EDM Council Data Excellence Program fosters a community of organisations dedicated to unlocking the full value of their data assets,” says John Bottega, president at the council. “As organisations embark on this journey, they not only elevate their data management capabilities, but also position themselves as leaders in data excellence.”
Founding members of the Data Excellence Program include both participating companies and certified partners that are authorised by the EDM Council to support members in achieving the program criteria.
Participating members include DTCC, Fifth Third Bank, Freddie Mac, KPMG, LSEG, Northern Trust, Northwest Bank, Raymond James, Standard Bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) and T. Rowe Price. Certified partners are Element22, PwC, Acquis Cortico-X, DataWise, Ortecha and Projective Group.
