The Services Bureau (SB) ____________________________________________The SB is made up of Technical Staff. There are two main components of the SB: the Data ServicesBureau (DSB) and the Business Intelligence Service Bureau (BISB). The DSB will focus on the actualdata entering the Data Repositories and the BISB will focus on the data consumption from DataRepositories in the form of Reports, Dashboards, Scorecards, etc. One or more of the SB’s members maysupport the SB full time (e.g., data profiling, working with projects, publishing use cases, etc.). Membersof the SB are primarily tasked with implementing the requests of the EIMG and vision of the DGC. Theymake decisions regarding how the data is physically managed (DSB) and accessed via standard reportsand business intelligence tools (BISB). Therefore, the members of this group must have sufficientauthority to facilitate the implementation of data storing, maintenance, cleansing and sharing across theenterprise. The table below details the role of the SB.Services BureauActivities, Roles and Responsibilities• Once the EIMG and DGC decide on Master Data, it is the role of the SB to architect how eachtype of Master Data will be physically maintained and shared across the enterprise.
