Data analytics without governance
- Different results for the same indicators.
- Each report looks different, hard to navigate.
- Production reports often have errors due to unmanaged development and deployment process.
- Users sometimes get access to data they shouldn’t have access to.
- It is difficult to maintain proper security due to changes in organizational structure.
- Development of reports and analysis is slow and costly as each developer and user reinvents already discovered practices.
- The platform is only used by developers who are passionate about data analytics.
- Some Power BI features are not used because users are not aware of them.
IT experts work inefficiently and everything is done ad-hoc or not at all. - Problems are only addressed when they arise, if at all. No one has information about the platform utilization.
- There are problems with IT components not being up to date, only holes are being plugged.
Environments for new reporting projects are created manually, errors often occur and SLAs cannot be relied upon. - Changes to environment settings are made haphazardly and cause outages.
- It is difficult for users to know where or with whom they can find answers to their questions.
