Frequently asked questions

Why assess data before investing in AI or analytics?

Because data quality, governance and availability determine what analytics and AI can achieve. The assessment shows you what's ready, what's missing and where to start.

Is it a prerequisite for the data packages?

Yes, for the design packages (data lakehouse and data consumption). Its results are the starting point for the architecture design.

Does it include cleaning the data?

No. Building or running data cleansing processes is out of scope; the assessment identifies where it's needed and how to prioritize it.
