AI Initiative Data Model
Purpose
This document defines the key data entities and relationships needed to manage the AI initiative portfolio and reporting within AI Conveyor.
Key ideas
- Initiative — the central entity, with attributes: identifier, name, owner, stage, priority, stage gate dates, target and actual impact, and links to data and models (see initiative-entity).
- Stage gates/Events — records of stage gate passages: date, decision, participants, artifacts.
- Reference data — stages, priorities, business units, impact types; where needed, links to the data catalog and model registry.
How it works
The data model provides a single source of truth for the registry and analytics. It can be implemented relationally (tables for initiatives, events, and reference data) or as entities within a corporate system. The analytics layer builds reports and KPIs on top of this model (analytics-layer).
