Abstract:
To measure Data Governance, researchers designed a few Data Governance Maturity Models, but the used capabilities are very different, resulting in different measurement outcomes. This research aims to find a substantiated and validated set of Data Governance capabilities for Data Governance Maturity Models design. We apply the Maturity Model design procedure model of Becker et al. for methodology, which we complement with the Generic Capability Reference model to validate the capabilities. As results, we find a proper set of Data Governance capabilities for designing a Data Governance Maturity Models. Furthermore, we validate the set of DG capabilities against the GCR model, of which we conclude that the Generic Capability Reference model is valid as a reference model for the (re)design of Maturity Models.
