Introduction
0.1 Foundations of the ISO 8000 series

Digital data deliver value by enhancing all aspects of organizational performance including:

— operational effectiveness and efficiency;
Deleted: —
— safety and security;
Deleted: —
— reputation with customers and the wider public;
Deleted: —
— compliance with statutory regulations;
Deleted: —
— innovation;
Deleted: —
— consumer costs, revenues and stock prices.
Deleted: —

In addition, many organizations are now addressing these considerations with reference to the United

Nations Sustainable Development Goals .

The influence on performance originates from data being the formalized representation of information .

This information enables organizations to make reliable decisions. This decision making can be

performed by human beings directly and also by automated data processing including artificial

intelligence systems.

Through widespread adoption of digital computing and associated communication technologies,

organizations become dependent on digital data. This dependency amplifies the negative consequences

of lack of quality in these data. These consequences are the decrease of organizational performance.

The biggest impact of digital data comes from two key factors:
— the data having a structure that reflects the nature of the subject matter;
Deleted: —

EXAMPLE 1 A research scientist writes a report using a software application for word processing. This report

includes a table that uses a clear, logical layout to show results from an experiment. These results indicate how

material properties vary with temperature. The report is read by a designer, who uses the results to create a product

that works in a range of different operating temperatures.

— the data being computer processable (machine readable) rather than just being for a person to read

Deleted: —
and understand.

EXAMPLE 2 A research scientist uses a database system to store the results of experiments on a material. This

system controls the format of different values in the data set. The system generates an output file of digital data.

This file is processed by a software application for engineering analysis. The application determines the optimum

geometry when using the material to make a product.

ISO 9000 explains that quality is not an abstract concept of absolute perfection. Quality is actually the

conformance of characteristics to requirements. This actuality means that any item of data can be of high

quality for one purpose but not for a different purpose. The quality is different because the requirements

are different between the two purposes.

EXAMPLE 3 Time data are processed by calendar applications and also by control systems for propulsion units

on spacecraft. These data include start times for meetings in a calendar application and activation times in a control

system. These start times require less precision than the activation times.

The nature of digital data is fundamental to establishing requirements that are relevant to the specific

decisions that are made by each organization.

EXAMPLE 4 ISO 8000-1 identifies that data have syntactic (format), semantic (meaning) and pragmatic

Deleted: -
(usefulness) characteristics.

To support the delivery of high-quality data, the ISO 8000 series addresses: Deleted: -

— data governance, data quality management and maturity assessment;
Deleted: —

EXAMPLE 5 ISO 8000-61 specifies a process reference model for data quality management. Deleted: -

— creating and applying requirements for data and information;
Deleted: —

EXAMPLE 6 ISO 8000-110 specifies how to exchange characteristic data that are master data.

Deleted: -
— monitoring and measuring information and data quality;
Deleted: —

EXAMPLE 7 ISO 8000-8 specifies approaches to measuring information and data quality.

Deleted: -
— improving data and, consequently, information quality;
Deleted: —

EXAMPLE 8 ISO/TS 8000-81 specifies an approach to data profiling, which identifies opportunities to improve

Deleted: -
data quality.
— issues that are specific to the type of content in a data set.
Deleted: —

EXAMPLE 9 ISO/TS 8000-311 specifies how to address quality considerations for product shape data.

Deleted: -

Data quality management covers all aspects of data processing, including creating, collecting, storing,

maintaining, transferring, exploiting and presenting data to deliver information.

Effective data quality management is systemic and systematic, requiring an understanding of the root

causes of data quality issues. This understanding is the basis for not just correcting existing

nonconformities but for also implementing solutions that prevent future reoccurrence of those

nonconformities.

EXAMPLE 10 If a data set includes dates in multiple formats including “yyyy-mm-dd”, “mm-dd-yy” and

Deleted: -

“dd-mm-yy”, then data cleansing can correct the consistency of the values. Such cleansing requires additional

Deleted: -

information, however, to resolve ambiguous entries (such as, “04-05-20”). The cleansing also cannot address any

Deleted: -

process issues and people issues, including training, that have caused the inconsistency.

0.2 Understanding more about the ISO 8000 series
Deleted: -

ISO 8000-1 provides a detailed explanation of the structure and scope of the whole ISO 8000 series.

Deleted: -

ISO 8000-2 specifies the single, common vocabulary for the ISO 8000 series. This vocabulary is ideal Deleted: -

reading material by which to understand the overall subject matter of data quality. ISO 8000-2 presents

Deleted: -

the vocabulary structured by a series of topic areas (for example, terms relating to quality and terms

Deleted: -
relating to data and information).
Deleted: -

ISO has identified ISO 8000-1, ISO 8000-2 and ISO 8000-8 as horizontal deliverables .

Deleted: -
0.3 Role of this document
Deleted: -

As a contribution to this overall capability of the ISO 8000 series, this document enables organizations to

Deleted: -

exchange data policy statements. These statements are the core output from data governance. This output

Deleted: -

supports organizations to achieve availability, usability, integrity and security of data. The policies affect

the practical implementation of creating, managing and using data sets.

An organization appoints a data governance authority to be responsible for developing and enforcing the

policies relating to the management of data.

To ensure the effect of these policies, organizations can decide each data governance policy statement:
