Data made clear and roles made real.

The right operating model makes it obvious who owns what, how decisions get made and how your teams work together. Less confusion, more momentum and a structure that actually delivers.

Make your Operating Model the engine of action.

Here’s the truth – having a data strategy isn’t enough

A strategy tells you where you want to go. An operating model makes it happen

A data and AI operating model makes accountability crystal clear, governance real and processes easy to sustain. And we don’t just design it and walk away. We work with you to implement, refine and embed it so it lasts and delivers real value. 

Why does it matter?

Without the right model, even the best strategy falls apart. We help you fix the common blockers that hold data back:

When you get architecture right, you improve decision-making, align your people and systems and build readiness for whatever comes next. All while moving faster and spending less.

Our engagements with Ortecha haveprovided a strong foundation and education that has enabled the success of our datamanagement program.

A client project we’re proud of. 

A US insurer found its rhythm and built a data operating model that stuck.

This insurer’s data management ambitions kept stalling. Competing priorities, complex integrations and a growing gap between business and IT had left teams frustrated and progress slow. When a capability assessment confirmed they were still at an early stage, we stepped in to help them build a Data Operating Model that made data management a working discipline

What they got:

Most asked questions

What’s the difference between this and a Target Operating Model (TOM)?

Think of your Data & AI Operating Model as the whole journey — today and tomorrow. A TOM is usually just the final “future state” picture. We cover both so you don’t just design the end-state, you actually get there.

How do you make sure stakeholders buy in?

We bring them in early. To make sure adoption sticks, we want to make sure people don't just understand the model - they should own it. If you're not sure who should be in this group, we can guide you.  

What if we’re not ready to implement yet?

No problem. We can start with a design-only engagement — giving you a clear, actionable blueprint you can pick up when you’re ready to move.
