Services / Data Governance & Technical BA

Govern the data.
Bridge the business.

Governance frameworks that hold up under audit, and Technical Business Analysts who speak both SQL and stakeholder — data stewardship, master data management, and requirements work delivered offshore under your MSA.

Data governance is the set of ownership, definitions, lineage, and quality controls that keep data trustworthy and audit-ready; a Technical Business Analyst is the bridge who turns business questions into validated data specifications. Thinklens delivers both offshore under your MSA. Governance work includes stewardship frameworks (data-domain ownership, RACI, business glossaries), master data management with golden-record and survivorship rules across SAP MM and Workday domains, policy and source-to-report lineage mapped to GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 controls, and quality KPIs published on a stewardship dashboard. Thinklens Technical BAs don't hand requirements over a wall — they profile the actual source tables, draft conceptual and dimensional models with source-to-target mappings, and prototype the target report in SQL, Power BI, Tableau, or Spotfire before a sprint is committed. The result: ambiguity resolved in discovery, not discovered in UAT.

Rules that stick,
not shelf-ware.

Governance fails when it lives in a PowerPoint. We build stewardship into the daily workflow — ownership, definitions, lineage, and quality KPIs your client's auditors can actually trace.

Track 01

Stewardship Frameworks

Data-domain ownership maps, stewardship RACI, and business glossaries with agreed definitions — so "active customer" means the same thing in finance, sales, and the board pack.

Track 02

Master Data Management

Golden-record rules, survivorship logic, and ongoing stewardship for customer, vendor, and material masters — including SAP MM and Workday worker-data domains.

Track 03

Policy, Lineage & Audit Trail

Data-handling policies mapped to client-side controls (GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2), source-to-report lineage documentation, and change logs that make audit season a non-event.

Track 04

Quality KPIs & Monitoring

Completeness, validity, and freshness metrics per domain, published on a stewardship dashboard — governance you can see slipping before it becomes a data incident.

Analysts who
prototype.

Our Technical BAs don't hand requirements over a wall. They query the source systems themselves, draft the data model, and prototype in the BI tool — so engineering builds from validated specs, not guesses.

Requirements

Source-System Analysis

Stakeholder workshops paired with hands-on profiling of the actual source tables — SAP, Workday, or warehouse — so requirements reflect the data that exists, not the data everyone assumes exists.

Design

Data-Model & Mapping Specs

Conceptual and dimensional models, source-to-target mapping documents, and transformation rules written precisely enough that ETL developers and testers work from the same single source of truth.

Validation

SQL & BI Prototyping

Fluent in SQL, Power BI, Tableau, and Spotfire — our BAs mock up the target report against live data and walk stakeholders through it before a sprint is committed.

A Technical BA who can query is the cheapest insurance a data programme can buy — ambiguity gets resolved in discovery, not discovered in UAT.

Questions,
answered.

What does your data governance service include?

Stewardship frameworks (ownership, RACI, business glossaries), master data management with survivorship rules, policy and source-to-report lineage mapped to GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2, and quality KPIs published on a stewardship dashboard.

What makes your Technical BAs technical?

They query source systems themselves, draft data models and source-to-target mappings, and prototype in SQL, Power BI, Tableau, or Spotfire — so engineering builds from validated specs, not guesses.

Do you handle SAP and Workday master data?

Yes — golden-record and survivorship rules across SAP MM and Workday worker-data domains, with documented lineage and change control.
