The Anatomy Of Data Quality Management
Many databases are not error-free, and some contain a surprisingly large number of errors .
A recent industry report, delivered by Richard Y. Wang, Director of the MIT Chief Data Officer and Information Quality (CDOIQ) Program, notes that more than 60 percent of the surveyed firms (500 medium-size corporations with annual sales of more than $20 million) have problems with data quality.

Based on our best practice over 20 years of developing data quality solutions, can include the term of “ Data Fitness “
the concept of fitness for use from the quality literature, and our experiences with data consumers, we recommend conceptual framework for data quality that includes the following aspects:
• The data must be accessible to the data consumer. For example, the consumer knows how to retrieve the data.
