Basing on the Partners Healthcare System (PHS):

Basing on the Partners Healthcare System (PHS): Transforming Health Care Services Delivery Through Information Management Case by Richard M. Kesner from Ivey Publishing and Harvard Business Publishing Education: Essentially, as part of their overall initiative, Partners Healthcare System is attempting to achieve true enterprise-scale information management with appropriate integration, compatibility, synergy, etc. That is certainly a “statement of goodness, but… HOW should they achieve this “single” enterprise repository? In other words: does a single physical “data warehouse” make sense? Or should the enterprise repository alternatively, be logically viewed as a single environment, but actually, be made up of multiple components…and if so, which ones (Front-end data marts? Dependent data marts? or Something else?) Or: what about a data lake rather than an EDW? What about a combination of a data lake in front of/along with data marts? Or what about…well, you get the idea. There isn’t a single “always go-to, fits-every-situation” answer, unfortunately! Based on, AND WITH SIGNIFICANT EXPLICIT REFERENCES TO MATERIAL IN THE CASE IN YOUR NARRATIVE AND DRAWINGS (i.e., not just general reference material), define the overall component architecture and strategy for Partners Healthcare System for their enterprise data management. Your response must include the following, with significant detail; and it’s suggested that you liberally include diagrams and figures in your response: 1) START WITH a single high-level, component-level diagrammatic picture of their data environment, showing relationships to/data flows from PARTNERS HEALTHCARE key source systems and applications as described in the case. Your diagram must clearly communicate the enterprise strategy that you recommend they pursue, e.g., a single EDW; or a single data lake; or the front-end data mart approach; or a combination of front-end data marts and a back-end data lake; or…. 2) Describe the details of the platform(s) your group feels Partners Healthcare should use: relational databases for “traditional” data warehouse(s) and data marts? A data lake comprised of a big data solution, such as Hadoop/HDFS, or either the AWS or Azure stack? Some combination? Justify your answer, using material from the case. You may also use Internet-sourced materials that are i) authoritative and ii) fully referenced and cited. 3) What should Partners Healthcare System’s Master Data Management (MDM) strategy be? Your response must address: a. 10-15 major subject areas that should be included in their MDM strategy, and why each one is significant and should be included b. what major MDM/master data challenges Partners Healthcare will likely face c. how do you recommend MDM fit into their overall architecture: a separate system component? Part of the EDW/data lake/whatever? 4) What should Partners Healthcare do for data governance to help increase the chances of success for the environment? Your response needs to be “sufficiently detailed” – i.e., much more than a generalized statement or a couple of paragraphs along the lines of “Partners Healthcare needs to handle MDM, data quality, and metadata for their data governance.” Again, to emphasize: your response needs to be “grounded in the realities” of the Partners Healthcare case (rather than a general discussion of enterprise data management as covered in the lecture and the readings), including what is written in the case about the key workflows, organizations, and roles, etc.
