EkaLore has developed expertise and industry specific knowledge over a long time about data collected by enterprises, on products, on services, and on the process of getting those to enterprise customers – individuals or other enterprises.
In this series of releases, EkaLore will take a short look – sometimes related to other analyses and notes already released – at data and why it matters so much to all enterprises tiny to colossal.
Enterprises are engaged with “high stakes” data about their products and services to be presented to government regulators and others. The high stakes affect prices, permits to sell, and public confidence about those products and services. Without well curated data, enterprises of all sizes and locations simply won’t get to sell those products and services.
The ‘Supply Chains of Data’ are creating new demands and standards for scientific research. The government and the public have updated their views on the importance of good data. The realization of the need for traceability, reliability, retention, and quality of data has been forced on folks in recent years. The quality of scientific research related to Covid-19 has seen more than 340 scientific papers retracted or questioned in renowned publications with small audiences. Controversies over related scientific research have become national and international political questions with raging opinions on all sides. Ongoing debates over climate change, energy production methods, biological ecosystems, and many more are strongly influenced “by the research (data).” The Supply Chains of Data can be as troubled as any use of data in our civilization. To be continued… Our next post will continue the discussion and talk about the replication crisis, a side effect of a failure in the Supply Chain of Data. You can find it at www.ekalore.com/ars
