How Product and Business Teams Should Participate in Building Data Metric Systems

Q1: How should product or business colleagues participate in establishing a data metric system?

Product and business colleagues need a data‑empowerment mindset and should use the methodology of a data metric system to guide the data team in shaping a complete set of metrics, rather than merely raising questions. Building such a system requires joint effort; the data team must understand the business, and the business team must empower the data team, working together to create the metric system.

Q2: How can the data metric system be promoted within business departments?

If a mature data metric product does not exist, the data team should communicate with the business department to understand its pain points and rebuild a suitable metric system. If a product already exists, the metrics should be organized and shared with business staff, starting with small pilots to demonstrate value; successful pilots can then be expanded across the entire workflow.
