Set up the Team

Typically, there will be a core team that is focused on delivery. SAVVI does not recommend a Project Management methodology, but we do recommend that some key roles are represented within the core team. Some people may take on more than one role.

a sponsor who owns the delivery of outcomes

a project manager who can plan, direct, and monitor

a practitioner who is knowledgeable about the vulnerability

an Information Governance expert

a data scientist who can manipulate data

a business analyst who can propose improvements to business processes

a stakeholder manager who can manage relationships with partners

administrative support

The core team is likely to need to engage with a set of wider stakeholders such as

Information Asset Owners - those that control access to data assets

Support Services - those that provide services that can be offered as support

The core team should be able to report to an Accountable Governance Group, so that key decisions and definitions can be approved and adopted on behalf of the organisation.

This may be an existing group, such as a Management Team, or a group set up for this purpose. Either way, it should be empowered to represent the organisation.

It is particularly important that some key Information Governance roles are noted and communicated with, to ensure that they are able to contribute. These are likely to include

Senior information risk owner (SIRO)

Caldicott Guardian

Data Protection Office
