This hands-on ECIM 2026 workshop is designed for data managers, data professionals, and energy domain experts who want to work smarter, faster, and with far more confidence in OSDU. Building on the success of previous OSDU bootcamps, we are raising the bar — combining practical workflows, live demos, AI-assisted “vibe coding,” and real industry use cases that solve everyday challenges.

Over three energetic hours, participants will explore how modern tooling and AI-driven workflows can dramatically improve data quality, accelerate validation processes, and simplify interaction with OSDU services and external APIs.

Data management professionals are fluent in the how of the discipline: catalogs, lineage, quality rules, contracts. We are often less fluent in the why. We tell stories about pipelines and platforms when sponsors need stories about production regularity, reporting confidence, safety, maintenance execution, and trust in operational decisions. The result is familiar: work is treated as technical overhead instead of a business capability. This three-hour, hands-on bootcamp closes that gap. Drawing on best practice in Storytelling, stakeholder management, and visualization, participants learn to translate data work into language that executives, domain leaders, and technical teams can act on. We move from tool-first descriptions to outcome-based narratives that state the operational or reporting problem, the decision at stake, and the measurable result. We map the room with the power-interest grid, identify the three sponsors every initiative needs, and draft a one-paragraph case a sponsor can repeat to a peer. Every module is interactive. Tables and pairs work, pressure-test, and role-play. Participants leave with a drafted Minimum Viable Sponsorship package, a tested pitch, and one concrete next conversation to run in their own context.
