Today many business analysts are creating business-oriented decision models. These decision models contain business logic for operational decisions that operate within business processes. And, it is no surprise that data quality is critical to business-oriented decision models. After all, good decision models operating with bad data are no better than bad decision models operating with good data. The surprise is: not only are decision models a preferred way for managing true business logic but they are remarkably suitable for managing data quality logic!
While data quality logic seems a natural responsibility of data professionals, business analysts bump into data quality issues all the time. In fact, experience shows that, more often than not, business analysts serve as a focal point for capturing data quality requirements. This is good news for business analysts already familiar with TDM and those who understand how TDM integrates with business process models.
