Building a business case for data quality worksheet

This worksheet is designed to help data quality stakeholders delve into the underlying problems related to data quality and both qualify and quantify the impact. It also provides the opportunity to evaluate any proposed solutions and project the positive impact they can have on the underlying problems.

Key components of the worksheet are broken down into the following six impact areas that can either be directly or indirectly quantifiable. It is important to present both types of impacts to show that the business case has evaluated the qualitative and quantitative aspects of poor data quality impacting the business.
