DMO Alternatives and Design Considerations

Most organizations start with a Decentralized Model before they move toward a formal Data Management Organization (DMO). As an organization sees the impact of improvements in Data Quality, it may start to formalize accountability through a data management RACI matrix and evolve into a Network Model. Over time, synergies between the distributed roles will become more obvious and economies of scale will be identified that will pull some roles and people into organized groups. Eventually, this can morph into a Hybrid or Federated Model.

Some organizations don’t have the luxury of going through this maturity process. They are forced to mature quickly based on a market shock or new government regulations. In such a case, it is important to proactively address the discomfort associated with the organizational change if it is to be successful and sustainable.
