The consultant should recommend to use a RACI matrix to define member roles for a university that wants a successful Data Governance committee. A RACI matrix is a tool that clarifies the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders in a project or a process, using four categories: Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed. A RACI matrix can help the university have a successful Data Governance committee by defining and communicating who is responsible for making decisions, who is accountable for ensuring quality and compliance, who is consulted for providing input or feedback, and who is informed about the outcomes or changes related to data governance. Creating a Center of Excellence queue, setting up a Salesforce Adoption Dashboard, or referring committee members to Trailhead are not recommendations for a university that wants a successful Data Governance committee.

The consultant should explain that one of the reasons why key stakeholders might participate in a Center of Excellence is that it standardizes the data definitions for the university. A Center of Excellence is a group of people who provide leadership, guidance, and best practices for a specific area or domain. A Center of Excellence can help standardize the data definitions for the university by creating and maintaining a common vocabulary and understanding of what data means, how it is used, or how it is measured across different departments or units. Standardizing the data definitions can help improve data quality, consistency, and accuracy for the university. It ensures data is owned by one group or it ensures feature requests will be implemented are not reasons why key stakeholders might participate in a Center of Excellence for the university.

The EDA Data Dictionary is a document that provides information about the EDA objects and fields, and how they relate to each other. The consultant can reference this document to map the information from the legacy system to the corresponding EDA objects and fields in Salesforce. The other options are not documents that can help the consultant complete this task. Reference:

The first thing that the consultant should do to assess the situation is to document solution requirements from the groups involved. This will help the consultant understand the current state, pain points, goals, and needs of each group that uses or will use Salesforce, and how they relate to each other. This will also help the consultant determine whether EDA is a suitable solution for all groups, or whether some customization or integration is needed. Submitting a Salesforce Support case to merge orgs, installing EDA into one of the production environments, and creating a new Salesforce org using EDA as the foundation are not good first steps, because they do not involve gathering requirements from the stakeholders, and they may cause data loss or disruption.
