A Journey of Data
A value is data.
A reading is data.
A measurement is data.
A group of many values is also data.
Data can be based on
Date, Shift and time,
Person, Machine, Material, Process,
Defect, Waste, Rework, Repair,
Location, Area, State, Country, Zone.
Project, Product, Service
Customer, Supplier, Service Providers
Sales, Profit, Expenses, Efficiency, Complaints, Incidents,
or any other parameter.
This can be truly understood only by the generator of the data.
Make data into categories.
Make graphs from data —
bar, line, pie, scatter, etc.
Now this is no longer just data —
It becomes information derived from data.
From information:
Draw conclusions.
Decide the next action.
Make corrections based on data.
Create proactive, reactive, or strategic plans.
This is the use of data.
Never give data
when information is required,
and never give information
when data is required.
Doing so gives a wrong impression
and shows your competency in handling data.
