Thanks for this article. I agree with the thought behind the data value chain and the value of cross-functional orchestration. One can pull cost savings out of places that otherwise would have been missed and create new opportunities that otherwise would not have been known.

Not a big fan of the petal visualization, though. Doesn't tell me much until I read the descriptions. Natural Language Generation could be a part of the value chain. It can literally explain the data and augment visualization.
