The Corporate Information Factory is the structure that generates and harnesses the power of information and data is the fuel that feeds that engine. Like any engine, the Corporate Information Factory consists of a series of interacting components that work in concert with each other to provide a robust infrastructure. In order for the Corporate Information Factory engine to run smoothly, each component in the engine must execute at peak efficiency. The goal of this paper is to detail the data quality and data augmentation processes that need to be in place to obtain the strategic information yield. Data Quality is instrumental in ensuring that the components of the Corporate Information Factory can be successfully integrated and can operate at optimal efficiency.
