$3,200.00 Fixed

Business Overview:

We are a healthcare organization. We handle sensitive patient data, but we lack a formal data governance framework. Our data is inconsistent, and we are not fully compliant with regulations like HIPAA.

The Challenge:

We do not have a clear data governance framework. Data is collected and stored inconsistently, which leads to data quality issues and a high risk of regulatory non-compliance. We need to ensure our data is accurate, secure, and used responsibly.

Problems Caused:

The lack of data governance puts us at high risk of a data breach and regulatory non-compliance. This could lead to massive fines, legal action, and a loss of public trust. It also makes it difficult to use our data for business intelligence and analytics.

Proposed Method: 

We need a senior data professional to design and implement a comprehensive data governance framework. The project will involve:

  • Policy Definition: Creating clear policies for data quality, security, and access control.
  • Data Catalog: Implementing a data catalog to document our data assets.
  • Roles & Responsibilities: Defining clear roles for data ownership and stewardship.
  • Compliance: Ensuring our data practices are compliant with regulations like HIPAA or GDPR.

Required Experience:

At least 5+ years of experience in data management, data governance, or a related field. The freelancer must have a proven track record of designing and implementing data governance frameworks.

Required Expertise:

  • Deep expertise in data governance principles and frameworks.
  • Strong knowledge of data quality and security standards.
  • Experience with regulatory compliance (e.g., HIPAA, GDPR).
  • Excellent technical documentation and communication skills.

Sample Work Required:

Please provide a redacted or anonymized example of a data governance framework you have previously designed, along with a description of the project and its outcomes.

Freelancer Proposal:

The freelancer should submit a detailed strategic proposal outlining their approach to data governance, including a phased implementation plan, a list of recommended tools, and a risk assessment.
