DATA STEWARDS

Data management with full permissions and tools suited for business experts

Governata gives Data Stewards a simple interface to manage the Business Glossary, quality rules, and approval workflow without needing any technical knowledge.

Compatible with major global systems and companies

What hinders the Data Steward role every day?

Complex technical tools

Every small edit requires SQL or technical support, so work piles up and every expert becomes dependent on someone else.

Conflicting departmental definitions

Each department interprets the active customer in its own way, so numbers differ across leadership reports and meetings.

Manually managed quality

Every discovered error starts a search for the responsible person and a manual correction request with no unified system.

Questions Data Stewards ask before starting

Do I need technical knowledge to use Governata?

No, Governata's interface is designed for non-technical users from finance, human resources, operations, and others, and all core operations happen through a simple visual interface.

The Business Glossary provides one central definition for each term with the ability to add departmental contexts, and any disagreement is escalated to the approved Data Owner for resolution.

The Data Steward manages daily governance operations such as definitions, quality, and modification requests, while the Data Owner approves major decisions and holds final responsibility.

No, permissions in Governata are precisely defined and each Data Steward manages only their assigned scope and cannot modify outside it without approval from the relevant Data Owner.
