Enterprise Data Management

• AMC G-3 Directed LOGSA to Assist with LMP due to
  Lessons Learned about the Lack of Good Data in
  LMPs First Deployment
• LOGSA now Leading Effort to Develop Standard,
  Measurable Data Cleansing Plans
• Focus now on Second Deployment
• Have Data Object Owners On-Board
• Deploying Automated Validation Tool (ASCENTIAL)
• Cleansed Data will be even more Important in
  GCSS-Army
• Larger Data Universe than LMP
• More Chances for Inaccurate Data
