A data platform failure pattern where tool replacement looked like the fix, but the real problem was ownership, release discipline, metric mismatch, and governance outside the workflow.

Outcome: Reframed platform recovery around ownership contracts, operating metrics, and release discipline so teams could fix the system instead of replacing another tool.

A data governance operating model for assigning owners, stewards, custodians, and SMEs without leaving quality rules, access decisions, retention, source-of-truth choices, and incident closure ambiguous.

Outcome: Defined a role-and-cadence contract that lets governance teams assign decision rights, artifacts, escalation paths, and success measures before a data product is certified.
