Introduction:

The application scenarios of data science are wide, but the specialized literature reports few applications in the public sector, particularly as a decision-making tool. Interest in data science has increased in recent years, primarily motivated by the recurrent use of concepts such as the fourth industrial revolution or Big Data.

Objective:

Propose a data flow scheme for the public sector to aid decision-making.

Materials and methods:

The work followed a qualitative and descriptive approach methodology, with three stages: (1) documentary tracking, (2) targeting and analysis, and (3) dimension definition and schema design.

Results:

A data flow scheme with four dimensions is proposed: Big Data, data management, information management, and decision making.

Conclusions:

The proposed scheme is designed as a tool to help the public sector transition from an unstructured data flow to a sequential scheme that allows the generation of useful information, thereby facilitating decision-making processes.
