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.
- Run your data with purpose
- Turn good intentions into accountable action
- Where strategy ends & execution begins
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:
- Unclear data ownership leading to duplication and waste
- Governance, policies & processes that only exist on paper but never seen in practice
- Tech that doesn't fit how your business actually runs
- Patchy adoption and internal resistance
- Legacy operating models that never evolved with your business or your people
When you get architecture right, you improve decision-making, align your business, data and technology, and build readiness for whatever comes next. All while moving faster and spending less.
Our engagements with Ortecha have provided a strong foundation and education that has enabled the success of our data management program.

What do you get?
An Operating Model that works in the real world, not just in a slide deck:
From stop-start to a sustainable data discipline
A client project we’re proud of.
A US insurer found its rhythm and built a data management 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. When a capability assessment confirmed they were still at an early stage, we stepped in to help them build a Data Management Operating Model that made data management a working discipline.
What they got:
- A clear vision for sustainable data management: Defined roles, responsibilities and governance to cut through confusion and decision deadlock.
- Tools for traction: Practical guidance, frameworks and metrics to prove value early and keep momentum.
- Confidence to grow: A roadmap and funding model that gave data leaders credibility and the organisation a clear way forward.
Why choose Ortecha?
We focus on the human side as much as the tech side.
- Our frameworks are proven, but always tailored to your context
- We design with your stakeholders, not for them
- Change management is baked in from day one
- We deliver value early and keep iterating
- We make tech fit the way your people work, so it's adopted, not abandoned
Common questions
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.
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.
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.
