Data Quality Assessment Framework (DQAF)

The Data Quality Assessment Framework (DQAF) is a structured approach used to evaluate the reliability, accuracy, and usefulness of data collected by organizations. It sets standards and best practices to ensure data is consistent, timely, and relevant. By following the DQAF, organizations can identify weaknesses in their data processes and improve them, leading to more informed decision-making. Essentially, it acts as a comprehensive checklist to maintain high-quality data across all stages—from collection and processing to analysis and dissemination.
