//07 — Our Approach
How Data Care Works
Discovery
We begin with an assessment of the existing data environment: which integrations are currently in use, how they were built, which systems are involved, and what the critical data flows are. Based on this, we determine the appropriate Data Care package and establish the service levels.
Set up monitoring
We set up active monitoring for all integrations, pipelines, and transformations. Alerts are configured so that we are immediately notified in the event of a failed run, a timeout, or an unexpected anomaly in the data.
Stabilization
During the first month, we’ll focus on stability. This will involve minor adjustments, updating documentation, and familiarizing ourselves with the environment. In this phase, integration points will be used to implement improvements that add immediate value.
Ongoing management
Starting in month two, everything is running at full speed. Incidents are addressed within the agreed-upon response time.
Quarterly or monthly review
Together, we look back and ahead: what has worked well, which systems are set to change, and what’s on the roadmap. This ensures that the data environment continues to align with the organization’s needs.
