What 7116IBA covers

The learning path moves from Data as a Strategic Enterprise Resource, through the problems opened by Data Warehouses Marts and Analytical Architecture, to the synthesis required in Data Valuation and the DRM Organisation.

01

Data as a Strategic Enterprise Resource

enterprise data · strategic resource · data domain · connect a defined decision to enterprise data meaning, ownership and expected organisational value

It carries 10 credit points.

It is positioned as Data-resource management course.

A group selected-topic presentation opens the assessment sequence before an individual annotated bibliography and a larger individual project apply data-resource-management ideas to research and organisational problems.

Assessment in 7116IBA is distributed as follows: 25% group oral presentation, 35% individual annotated bibliography, and 40% individual project

The operational assessment conditions matter here.

No final examination appears in the current course-profile assessment table.

The final assessed task is an individual project due 9 October 2026 at 5:00 pm.

What makes 7116IBA demanding is concrete: Moving from a technology list to an enterprise argument: students must connect data meaning, architecture, governance, quality and organisational responsibility to a defined business decision.

The current profile marks the tasks as score activities and publishes no mandatory-pass component or separate attendance pass rule.

Recheck the live profile for updates.

For enrolment planning, The current profile lists 7503MGT as an incompatibility; confirm current program eligibility in the enrolment system.

The learning path moves from Data as a Strategic Enterprise Resource, through the problems opened by Data Warehouses Marts and Analytical Architecture, to the synthesis required in Data Valuation and the DRM Organisation.

Coverage note: landed detailed teaching material is strongest for Modules 1-3; later official topic names control the broader chapters without manufacturing absent task rubrics.

Worked example · free

Choose the right enterprise description before proposing a platform

Q [5 marks]. An AskSia-authored firm wants a single customer view and immediately proposes a data lake. Build a five-part DRM response before endorsing the technology.
Figure.Figure. enterprise data, strategic resource and data domain support a discipline-specific governed enterprise-data design.enterprise datastrategic resourcedata domaingoverned enterprise-data design
Figure. enterprise data, strategic resource and data domain support a discipline-specific governed enterprise-data design.
  • 1Define the decisions and stakeholder perspectives the customer view must support.
  • 1Map customer entities, identifiers and source-system ownership.
  • 1Audit quality, consent, retention and lineage constraints.
  • 1Compare warehouse, lake and federated options against the defined use.
  • 1Assign governance ownership and a measurable adoption or decision signal.
The response begins with decision and data meaning, not with the proposed platform. A data lake is only one implementation option and remains unsuitable if identity, ownership, quality or lawful use are unresolved.
Sia tip — Do not let storage architecture substitute for an enterprise data model.
