Enterprise Data Modernization
Unifying analytics talent from across the company and IT into a single enterprise Data Organization — and laying the foundation for AI leadership in the industry.
The Opportunity
Analytics talent had grown organically across the enterprise — analysts within operating departments, engineers within IT, each with its own tooling. Consolidating this talent into a single organization represented a major opportunity: one source of truth for company data, a foundation on which AI could credibly be built, and real-time operational decision-making at $18B scale.
The Build
Led a significant data modernization effort that treated the problem as organizational before it was technical. Unified disparate analytics personnel from across the company and from IT into a single enterprise Data Organization, and recruited a veteran SVP to lead it — consolidating tooling investments into one analytics platform and establishing data science and KPI reporting as enterprise disciplines with executive sponsorship.
The Outcome
The company gained a single source of truth for operating data and the ability to make real-time decisions at portfolio scale. The unified organization aligned cross-functional teams behind one data and AI roadmap with board sponsorship — laying the foundation for AI leadership in the industry, with the structure, talent, and governance to evaluate and deploy new capabilities as they mature.
