The Power of Data Culture as a Precondition for a Smart Utilities Organization
summary
Argument: data culture is a precondition, not a checkbox. The company builds a linked data asset model and pilots appointed data owners for the production/asset business, implements a data-driven governance model, and deploys a searchable catalog called Sherlock exposing metadata and use cases. The community grows to ~330 employees, early “speedboat” projects show faster cross-department access and more sharing, but onboarding more owners, adding samples and maturing change management remain the next hard tasks.
