How can our business data help us
improve?
How can we assess the value of data and
make it a long-term priority?
How can we ensure continued data transparency and
accessibility of the data universe in the required quality?
Which roles, responsibilities, processes & tools
are required?
Which technical systems & architectures can we
use to manage our data treasure?
How can these systems be efficiently developed &
operated?
Targeted Results
Everyone understands the commercial value of the data
Data utilisation is anchored within the business
model & managed systematically
The data universe is transparent and mastered
through metadata management
Roles, responsibilities, processes and tools
are embedded
Technical systems and architectures provide
efficient access to the data treasure?
The costs and effort of data management are
appropriate.

The target utilisation rank defines the degree of maturity stages
company is aiming for across all management levels
The W&R Utilisation Rank Model has four stages of development, culminating in ‘data champion’.
Differentiation into four categories allows for precise derivation of the target maturity. The steps required to implement
the transformation efficiently are then determined from the company’s current utilisation rank and the derived target.

Data in silos - retrospective at
best & requires significant
effort to leverage
Data (partially) linked &
usable for selected
business purposes
Actively managed data -
valuable data nuggets found
on a regular basis
Comprehensive data automation
- available in self-service for
business users
Failure to recognize the
value of data
"Data is an effort"
Specific roles, tasks or
responsibilities for data
management not established Decentral operational systems &
individual data processing
("departmental Exel") Value creation from data is
appreciated - targeted
leverage of potential in
isolated cases
des Potentials in Einzelfällen
Sporadic definition of data
responsibilities, limited standardisation of data quality and data transparency
Integrated data warehousing,
active architecture management with guidelines & development concepts
Value creation from data is
