Compliance is a hot topic within any publicly traded Company. However, most well-managed private companies are also recognizing the benefits of adopting the same standards that the Sarbanes-Oxley laws require. Many of these requirements pertain to reporting. You must be able to demonstrate the ‘lineage’ of any data used for financial reporting. Where was it derived from? What transformations have occurred? What processes are in place to avoid errors? Where are the audit reports? These requirements definitely apply if you prepare financial reports from your data warehouse. But even if you don’t, you are making business decisions based on the data in the warehouse, so surely you want some checks and balances in place to ensure it is reliable and fully documented. RODIN’s metadata, error management and audit reporting capabilities combine to provide most, if not all of these requirements. And simply by using RODIN you implement all of these, with no extra effort required. |
