Data Governance Strategy and Engagement.
The contractor will help align data governance activities to business value, mission priorities, compliance needs, and enterprise data strategy.
  • Support data governance planning, including charters, roadmaps, operating models, stakeholder maps, and implementation plans.
  • Assist in defining data governance scope, ownership, roles, responsibilities, decision rights, and engagement processes.

  • Support maturity assessments and develop practical work plans to close governance gaps.
  • Translate technical data governance concepts into plain-language guidance suitable for executives, business program staff, data stewards, and operational teams.
  • Promote consistent use of eight core data governance elements: Organization, Policies, Procedures, Standards/Definitions, Architecture, Data Admin/Controls, Metrics/Reporting, and Audits.
Data Governance Implementation Support
The contractor will support the use of data governance tools, templates, and documentation practices.
  • Help complete governance artifacts such as RACI charts, business glossaries, data dictionaries, data inventories, data issue logs, policy/procedure mappings, stewardship plans, and governance roadmaps.

Facilitation and Governance Meeting Support
The contractor will serve as a facilitator and working-session lead for governance activities.
  • Plan, facilitate, and document data governance meetings, workshops, steering committee sessions, and stewardship working groups.

  • Develop and execute stakeholder engagement and change management plans for data governance adoption.
  • Create communication products such as briefings, talking points, newsletters, intranet content, FAQs, one-page summaries, presentations, and adoption messaging.
  • Promote data governance as a business-enabling capability, not only a compliance activity.
  • Communicate the value of data governance in terms of trusted data, reduced risk, improved service delivery, better decision-making, and increased efficiency.
  • Support messaging for managing data as an enterprise asset.
  • Identify adoption barriers and recommend interventions such as targeted communications, leadership briefings, training refreshers, job aids, and facilitation support.
Training Development and Delivery
The contractor will help develop, maintain, and deliver data governance learning products.
  • Develop training plans, course outlines, instructor-led materials, self-service learning content, quick reference guides, and role-based learning paths.
  • Deliver training for data owners, data stewards, data custodians, data producers, data consumers, and governance teams.
  • Support data fluency training aligned to enterprise data governance methodology, tools, and templates.

  • Work independently while coordinating with the Enterprise Data Governance Manager, Data Governance Analyst, and stakeholders.
  • Produce clear, professional, executive-ready written products.
