Laying the Groundwork for Saudi Arabia’s Digital Transformation: A Comprehensive Data Strategy
Saudi Arabia’s journey towards becoming a digitally advanced nation involves significant efforts in both the public and private sectors. The National Data Management Office (NDMO) has been instrumental in creating a standardized approach to data management across the kingdom. Drawing inspiration from international standards, the NDMO has developed a comprehensive framework that treats data as a national asset, ensuring it is discoverable, actionable, and well-maintained.
Key principles such as data protection by design, open data by default, and the promotion of ethical data use are foundational to this framework. These principles aim to foster a culture of transparency and trust, where data is a shared responsibly and utilized for the common good. This approach not only enhances the effectiveness of decision-making processes but also ensures that the vast amounts of data collected are used to drive meaningful outcomes.

Realizing the Vision of a Data-Driven Future
The NDMO’s comprehensive framework for data management, consisting of 15 domains and over 190 specifications, is designed to ensure that data governance is effective and that data assets are maximized for value. This framework covers various aspects of data management, including data governance, data accessibility, data protection, and data classification.
By implementing these standards, organizations in Saudi Arabia can create a robust data management strategy that aligns with national goals and supports the broader vision of digital transformation. The integration of Incorta further advances this strategy. Incorta enables organizations to harness the full potential of their data and achieve compliance with regulatory requirements.

Earlier this year, at the No Limits event in Riyadh, hosted by Incorta, Ahmed Tarek, Director of Sales Engineering, and Ahmed Moawad, Customer Success Manager delivered an insightful presentation on the National Data Management Office (NDMO). The session highlighted the transformative impact of advanced data solutions on reshaping the data landscape, aligning with Saudi Arabia’s vision for a digitally empowered future.
One of the key messages from the No Limits event was the importance of innovation and trust in data management. With the rapid advancements in technology, it is crucial to continually adapt and improve data management practices to stay ahead of the curve. The event underscored the need for a learning culture that fosters continuous development and the adoption of world-class standards in data management.
Trust, both between government entities and the public, is paramount in ensuring the success of data initiatives. High-quality data that is well-managed and protected instills confidence in the data ecosystem, enabling better collaboration and more informed decision-making.
