Principle 9

Manage Data as an Asset

Statement

Implications

  • Core university data needs to be identified and made accessible as appropriate whether located in the cloud, centralized or local environment.
  • Business Intelligence tools will be implemented to facilitate information availability for decision making.
  • Sufficient metadata will be stored with the information to enable its easy management and understanding.
