Data Management Executive Committee (DMEC)

Overview

Data Management supports informed data driven decisions, impacts the ability to identify and leverage opportunities, and is vital to maintaining operational excellence as well as comply with local, state, and federal mandates. ODU continues to advance in business practices and dependencies on the use of data for strategic goals and priorities. Along with this progress comes a need to advance our data management policies, standards, procedures, and awareness efforts so that we can be prepared to meet new challenges.
