London, 27 October 2026: Nephos Technologies, the data enablement and governance company, today announced it has joined EDM Association, the global trade association for data management and technology standards, as an Authorized Partner.
The partnership combines Nephos’ hands-on expertise in enabling and operationalising data and AI governance, with EDM Association’s globally recognised data management frameworks and standards, including DCAM – the Data Management Capability Assessment Model. Together, they will help organisations measure their data management maturity against industry best practice and turn that insight into governed, well-run data programmes that support AI at scale.
As an Authorized Partner, Nephos is able to deliver DCAM assessments, giving clients an independent view of where they stand today. Nephos then works alongside them to close the gaps, from strategy and governance through to delivery and ongoing operation.
Lee Biggenden, Co-founder and Chief Commercial Officer of Nephos Technologies, said: “EDM Association sets the standard for what good data management looks like. Nephos brings the experience of putting that into practice inside complex enterprises. Bringing the two together means our clients get a trusted benchmark and a partner who can deliver against it, which is exactly what organisations need as they prepare their data for AI.”
Carole Mahoney, Chief Field Services Officer at EDM Association, said: “We welcome Nephos Technologies as a new member and Authorized Partner. By engaging with our community to accelerate the adoption of best practices for data management and advanced analytics as defined by our DCAM framework, Nephos will advance the success of their clients’ digital transformation and AI optimisation strategies.”
