Title: Integrating Data Science and Quality to Achieve Organization Excellence: A Practical Plan for Success

Presenter: Milton Krivokuca DBA

Summary:

Critical Quality 4.0 Components of a Digital Transformation

Digital transformation is not an abstract or theoretical journey. Objectives cannot be effectively developed without first analyzing data to establish a baseline for digital transformation. Data science, various types of analytics, and the emergence of multiple data sources can be confusing and intimidating for leaders faced with another challenge of “Where do we begin?” This presentation examines the key critical Quality 4.0 focused components of data analysis. The distilling of information as it flows is a process. This workshop examines the development of a data analysis process with human intervention, integrated with the critical components of data science and quality as the basis for an effective digital transformation.

This two-hour workshop includes moderated breakout sessions.

Discussion sessions focus on assessing the current state of a digital transformation plan and how a plan is required for various types of organizations, including the integration of human factors as related to artificial intelligence.

Breakout discussions will evaluate the correlation between an effective data scientist and a skilled quality professional. The skills overlap required for this functional position in an organization addresses the question of would a data scientist be more effective through a foundation in quality or a foundation in IT?

· Managers responsible for planning, implementing or managing an organization s digital transformation.

· Quality professionals who desire to expand their careers to include data science and how data science integrates with quality as organizational excellence.

· Data engineers and programmers will recognize the existing resources within an organization available to them within organizations that can support an effective digital transformation.
