As a leading global telecommunications company, Verizon has been a staunch supporter of data and analytics and has recognized the need for improving data management and analytics best practices and education. By working with EDM Council, Verizon plans to leverage the Council’s proprietary Data Management Capability Assessment Model (DCAM®), a formal framework used to provide guidance as well as assess a firm’s data management and analytics capabilities. DCAM’s unique approach utilizes a consistent scoring model that has been highly adopted by organizations globally that use data management frameworks.

“One thing that companies of all sizes have learned this challenging year is that data management and analytics practices are strategic, and need a greater level of sophistication and comprehension,” said Linda Avery, Chief Data Officer at Verizon and former CDO at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. “EDM Council is spearheading the drive towards better data management and analytics and we’re very excited to be a part of this industry organization.”
