The National Laboratories Information Technologies (NLIT) Summit 2018 brings together colleagues from across the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) complex to facilitate an exchange of information management (IM) best practices, strategy, and methodology. Each year, the conference averages 400 attendees from the DOE Laboratories. While each DOE National Laboratory is represented at the event, the 2018 NLIT Summit will have the strongest participation from this year's local hosting lab, Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

The Summit consists of presentations, Community of Interest Network (COIN) collaboration sessions, panel discussions, tutorials, and technology demonstrations on a variety of topics of current interest to the IT community within DOE. There is an emphasis on providing opportunities for active participation and networking between attendees. Best practices, strategies, methodologies, implementations, lessons learned, innovative solutions, and emerging topics within the DOE community are shared during the Summit’s many sessions and events.

Ethical data collection practices, the growing use of artificial intelligence tools by businesses, and the demands for more analysis are causing data analysts and data scientist to spend an inordinate amount of time in data prep rather than analysis. The need for Data Governance is now! But, what is Data Governance? Who is embarking upon it, how are they implementing it and what benefits are being derived? In this session you will learn about the erwin EDGE (Enterprise Data Governance Experience) platform and how it brings together the key disciplines to specify, plan, execute and deliver a value-driven data governance solution that enables accurate data driven insights in support of agile innovation and business transformation while assuring regulatory compliance. Greg will showcase how we eliminated the data prep work that has been done historically by the data analyst and scientists, using a recent project with a healthcare provider who had limited visibility into their data. In this example we will show how EDGE provided a governance structure for their primary care and business operations to be able to identify, locate, and govern their patient data.
