My name is Ken O'Connor - independent Consultant.
I specialise in helping organisations satisfy the Data Governance requirements of compliance programmes such as Solvency II, BASEL II, Anti Money Laundering, Anti Fraud, Anti Terrorist Financing, Single Customer View.
I am what Dylan Jones (editor of Data Quality Pro) describes as a "grizzled veteran", with almost 30 years experience across the full development lifecycle.
Data Migration is an ongoing fact of life for all enterprises. Business drivers include:
1. Replacement of existing systems
2. Population of new regulatory systems (e.g Anti Money Laundering, BASEL II, Solvency II)
3. Ad hoc provision of data to satisfy regulatory requests
4. Population of CRM systems, and the Cloud
For the past 15 years, my work has centred on Data Conversions and Data Migrations. As a Senior Consultant in IBM’s Euro Centre of Competence, I helped organisations in Ireland and across Europe successfully complete Euro Changeover.
As an independent consultant, I have worked with multi-national clients on Single View of Customer programmes, and major compliance programmes, including Sarbannes Oxley (SOX), BASEL II and Anti Money Laundering (AML).
All Data Migrations face similar challenges, including...
- How will we populate the target repository?
- Where is the source data?
- Which of the multiple sources is Master?
- Who owns the data?
- Where are the business rules?
- Which business rules are master?
- What to do about conflicting business rules?
- What data quality is required for the new system?
- What is the quality of the existing data?
- What will we do if the quality of the existing data is below the quality required for the new system.
- ...
I have faced and solved the above and more. I can help your Enterprise with your Data Migration, Data Governance.
