Data migration projects have an extremely high failure rate and one of the principal causes is a lack of effective data quality management across all aspects of the project.
To help members reverse the trend of project failure we have enlisted the support of John Morris, author of Practical Data Migration and creator of the PDMv2 Data Migration Methodology, the only industry standard methodology for data migration currently available. John also provides great advice via his BCS Blog.
