Data Lineage Auto-Documentation Forecasting & Early Warning
Description
Forecast risk, aging, workload, backlog or balance behavior for data lineage auto-documentation, then alert owners before audit or fiscal deadlines are missed. The MVP would connect Advana, data catalog, ERPs, feeder systems, data dictionaries, lineage tools and produce read-only recommendations for CDAO, OUSD(C), Component Chief Data Officers, system owners.

Expected benefit
Earlier intervention before deadlines, lower aging/backlog, better resource allocation.
Audit / financial statement impact
Audit traceability and all statements dependent on source data quality
Controls / human review
Human review for exceptions and recommendations; maintain evidence packages, lineage, source citations, model cards, data-quality checks, and periodic QA sampling.
Data needed
Advana, data catalog, ERPs, feeder systems, data dictionaries, lineage tools; master/reference data; audit logs; policy/control requirements; prior exceptions; relevant document evidence.
Possible metrics
forecast error; prevented deadline misses; backlog reduction; aging reduction
MVP scope
Start with one Component/reporting entity and one subprocess (data lineage auto-documentation) for two close/audit cycles; read-only outputs first.
