Quality & evidence
Quality & evidence
ANSWER IN BRIEF
Assess the usable collection and the cost of preparing it before treating it as an asset for sale.
Test the internal assumptions
Ask the team to explain a small set of ordinary and difficult records. Check whether that explanation survives an export. Use findings to revise the usable scope, preparation effort and estimate assumptions before discussing a broader opportunity.
Follow the evidence
The entries below turn this decision into a practical record. Keep the company’s working inventory and approvals current as the proposed data, counterparty or use changes. Read the original sources before relying on a service description.

Assessing what our company can offer — Sell Our Data
Assess a collection through four questions: what it represents, whether the company can describe it, what can be shared and which next decision the evidence supports.
