This project aims to establish a robust data governance framework to manage the full life cycle of organizational data, including receiving, cleaning, integrating, storing, analyzing, securely publishing data and reports, followed by, when necessary, secure data destruction. These measures will enhance compliance, improve data quality, and streamline reporting processes across dashboards and data types.
