Overview:

o Act as a liaison to ensure all parties are maintaining their responsibilities.
• Compliance & Data Quality
o Ensure configuration items (CIs) are accurate and meet compliance standards.
o Help improve stakeholder adherence to CMDB and asset management processes.
o Support the organization in reaching higher levels of governance maturity.

o Ensure the right data is available to support security and compliance initiatives.
• Licensing & Asset Accountability
