• Ensure high data quality and consistency across systems
• Maintain alignment with reference data standards
• Ensure adherence to enterprise architecture guidelines
• Embed data architecture best practices into delivery processes
• Support impact assessments and solution design decisions
• Govern ownership of critical data elements
• Design solutions to support operational needs (e.g., underwriting, policy, claims)
• Design solutions to meet analytical and reporting requirements
