At a tech scale-up, data certification is exclusively managed by the data modeling team within the analytics organization. App teams, which generate most of the data, have no direct pathway to certify their own data assets.

MyDataWork POV — The current setup where only the analytics team handles data certification is a bottleneck waiting to happen. It sidelines the app teams who are closest to the data's origin and nuances. This rigid separation can lead to inefficiencies and missed insights, as the people who understand the data best are kept out of the certification loop. Empowering app teams to certify their own data assets could streamline processes and enhance data quality.
