Overview

A practical data-governance programme starts with understanding what information the business holds and how it moves. Premark can coordinate a data inventory across departments, list relevant systems and vendors, identify access owners and organise records for qualified review. The result is a prioritised register of documentation and operational questions, not a substitute for a legal or technical audit.
