After Hours: Modernizing Data-Centric Systems: Advancing Agency Data as a Strategic Asset

Agencies are awash with data, too often siloed within disparate legacy systems that are hard to integrate. As federal leaders strive to better serve the mission and enhance customer experience, how are they approaching the modernization of complex, data-centric systems?

We’ll talk to government and industry experts about what “data as a strategic asset” really means in the federal space. Learn how agencies are approaching legacy data management hurdles and advancing strategic use of data across organizations and agencies.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the strategies leaders are employing to better leverage data as a strategic asset.
• Explore how agencies can overcome data management hurdles that have historically stymied modernization and data-sharing.
• Uncover key success factors for modernizing data-centric systems
• Learn what approaches and technologies agencies are using or looking to use to advance the use of data to support federal missions.
