Start with the minimum useful data

You do not need to connect every system or upload every report. Start with the information required to answer the business question you want addressed.

Minimizing direct identifiers

Where appropriate, direct identifiers can be removed, masked, grouped, aggregated or replaced with internal references. This allows analysis to focus on trends, margins, costs, cash flow and operational performance.

Clear use of information

Business information is used to provide the agreed analysis, reporting, monitoring or advisory service. It is not sold to third parties for unrelated purposes.

Controlled access

Access to information should be limited to the authorized people and systems required to provide the service.

Your choices

You can choose which reports or systems to include, whether to begin with aggregated or anonymized information, which team members can access the workspace, and whether or when to expand the scope of data shared.

Questions before you share

Before onboarding, clients should be able to understand how their information will be handled and review the applicable privacy, confidentiality and data-processing terms.
