Goal
Helping business users work with data better
AXA XL’s focus on insurance, reinsurance, and risk management services demands a robust approach to the management of its data assets. The primary users of data governance solutions within the organization include many different teams, and achieving data transparency across the organization is a key milestone needed for success.
Strategy
Bringing information together in a Data Governance Center of Excellence
Bringing data and information together in one place is the first step to creating data transparency. Alongside the existing Centers for Excellence that AXA XL has in place, it’s built a Data Governance Center for Excellence to focus on data quality, data lineage, and other key areas of data management.
Results
Launching a destination for data transparency
Using Collibra, AXA XL has created a one stop shop for business users looking for data. With the ease of access to trustworthy data across the organization, they are embarking on more data related projects. For example, they are integrating the organization’s data quality information, including rules and scores, into the Data Governance Center using Collibra Connect.
“Collibra has played an important role in our journey to build data transparency within our organization. It helps our users connect the dots and support our desired self-service model, eliminating the need for a middleman and allowing them to focus on their real work.”
