Track Description:
===============
The quality of data and information plays a critical role in our knowledge-based economy. Moreover, novel fields of application such as online social networks and customer relationship management have given rise to a high relevance of data and information quality issues in theory and practice. This is due to the fact that the benefit of data and information depends heavily on their quality. Executives and employees need high-quality data and information to perform business, innovation, and decision-making processes properly. Against this background, it is not surprising that bad data and information quality may lead to wrong decisions and correspondingly high costs. According to an international survey up to 75% of executives have already made wrong decisions because of bad data and information quality. In addition, they and their staff spend up to 30% of their working time on checking the quality of data and information. Furthermore, 67% of marketing executives think that the satisfaction of their customers suffers from bad data and information quality. In this respect, the consequences of bad data and information quality are manifold: they range from insufficient decision support for executives to worsening customer relationships and customer satisfaction by addressing customers inadequately.
Against this background, the assessment and improvement as well as the economic impacts of data and information quality currently find a great deal of attention in science and practice. In this context, the Data and Information Quality Track focuses on novel managerial as well as technological data and information quality challenges and solutions. The track welcomes theoretical and empirical contributions as well as design science-oriented research.
