The objective of this research is to apply the concepts of data governance in order to identify improvement opportunities for the reuse of data included in the University’s academic management system. This makes it possible to enhance data quality, to avoid rework and to ensure the publication of information according to the visual identity of the institution. As for the methodological aspects, this study is an applied research, with an exploratory nature, in which the authors intended to identify and explore existing problems in the academic management system and also suggest a practical solution for the rework of the information included in such system and published on the University’s portal. As a result, it was observed the necessity of creating new processes by defining roles and responsibilities to promote the integration, organization and the correct grouping of data, ensuring that the information provided is always updated and consistent between systems. It is understood that the good practices of data governance and the tools used in this research contributed to the identification of improvement opportunities for the processes of using data from the Institution’s academic management system as both internal and external information.
