DATA QUALITY · Workflow idea

Give a team a useful progress view without turning activity measures into a judgment of people.

For an authorized purpose, prepare a weekly summary of verified project activity and open blockers for a project owner to review. Issue data can be incomplete, delayed, or misleading about an individual’s contribution. Check reporting periods and definitions, distinguish estimates from confirmed work, avoid ranking staff, restrict team-level details to intended recipients, and require a project owner to approve the report before circulation or management action. Explain personal-data use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.

4 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Prepare a weekly summary of verified project activity and open blockers for a project owner to review.

  1. Confirm authority, purpose, and field scope

    Use only records the requester may access and include fields needed for the stated purpose.

  2. Validate identities and calculations

    Check identifiers, mappings, units, source versions, and totals against original records.

  3. Flag gaps and conflicts

    Do not turn missing, stale, estimated, or inconsistent values into verified facts.

  4. Approve changes and distribution

    Have the data owner review each live update, export, conclusion, and external share.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

Keep in mind

Issue data can be incomplete, delayed, or misleading about an individual’s contribution. Check reporting periods and definitions, distinguish estimates from confirmed work, avoid ranking staff, restrict team-level details to intended recipients, and require a project owner to approve the report before circulation or management action.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define permitted inputs and retention

Document purpose, fields, source, destination, access, and deletion timing.

Test matching and calculation rules

Check representative records, duplicates, edge cases, time periods, and exceptions.

Keep sensitive details out of broad reports

Restrict exports and include only information each approved recipient needs.

Require owner approval for live changes

Keep production updates, merges, and consequential conclusions behind human review.
