Visual Maps 09–12

Map 9 — Operations Control Loop

RULES → MEASURE → THRESHOLD → ISSUE → ASSIGN / ESCALATE → DIAGNOSE → REMEDIATE → MONITOR

Overlay SLA commitments on notification, response, remediation, and escalation.

Answer check: the loop returns to monitoring and preserves rule/issue history.
Source: pp. 445–450.


Map 10 — Tool Pipeline

PROFILE → PARSE → STANDARDIZE / TRANSFORM → ENRICH → MONITOR / INCIDENT

Interpretation: discovery, decomposition, normalization, augmentation, and operational management are different functions.

Name/address example: profile patterns → split name → normalize state/address → add geocode → monitor exceptions.

Answer check: parsing is not enrichment; standardization does not prove accuracy.
Source: pp. 450–453.


Map 11 — Prevention / RCA / Correction Triangle

  • PREVENT — stops future defect entry/propagation.
  • RCA — explains/removes the underlying cause.
  • CORRECT — repairs existing bad records.

Examples: UI validation = prevention; Five Whys = RCA; cleansing = correction.

Answer check: “best long-term” usually points toward cause/prevention unless facts justify controlled ongoing correction.
Source: pp. 455–459.


Map 12 — Evidence & Governance Stack

RULE-LEVEL RESULTS → SCORECARD / TRENDS → SLA & ISSUE REPORTS → BUSINESS IMPACT → GOVERNANCE ACTION

Interpretation: measurement creates value only when ownership and governance turn evidence into decisions and action.

Place Data Owner / Steward / Governance beside the action layers.

Answer check: measurement without ownership/action is not a mature DQ function.
Source: pp. 446–450, 462–464.
