# Govern the Data First

From scattered to usable: building data your organisation can actually act on

## Why Governance First

Data is only an asset once someone can trust it. Data governance is the framework that makes it trustworthy: who owns which data, what the words mean, and how you find out when it goes wrong. 

 Accuracy 

Decisions rest on facts rather than noise.

 Compliance 

GDPR and Taiwan's Personal Data Protection Act.

 Availability 

No more silos — the business side takes what it needs, when it needs it.

## How the Work Runs

1

### Data inventory

Like taking stock of a warehouse: what data you hold, where it lives, and who is responsible for it. We build the catalogue (Data Catalog).

2

### Standardisation

One vocabulary across the company. Does "revenue" include tax? Does "customer" mean someone who ordered, or someone who might? Two departments answering differently is not a reporting problem, it is a definition problem. 

3

### Data quality monitoring

Automated checks that catch nulls, outliers and duplicates at the source — before they reach a report someone makes a decision from.

## Ready to Start

Get the data foundation right, and every AI project after it gets cheaper. Get it wrong, and none of them work.
