OT data management

Who is responsible for maintaining OT data.

Key Takeaways

  • OT data management remains highly decentralized across organizations, with responsibility most commonly distributed per stakeholder rather than maintained through centralized governance structures.
  • The largest share of respondents (29%) reported stakeholder-based ownership models, indicating that OT data accountability is often fragmented across teams and operational functions.
  • Site-specific maintenance outside of ServiceNow (14%) suggests that many organizations still rely on localized processes and external systems for OT data management, limiting standardization and enterprise visibility.
  • Centrally maintained OT data models remain limited (5%), highlighting a broader governance maturity gap and significant opportunities for improving consistency, scalability, and cross-site operational alignment.
