Definitive Quality Solutions - Data Quality
Often, the source systems from which the data are to be extracted are legacy systems which hold the data in an unstructured, non-standardised format. Data quality processing offers the opportunity to:
- Cleanse - using standard business rules to tidy up incorrect and unstructured data.
- Improve - fill in the gaps by deriving missing data from other sources (e.g. propagate Title, First Name or Last Name from a generalised name field).
- Standardise - ensure a standard format is used where appropriate.
- Exception Report - inform source systems where upstream data improvement can be made.
- Profile - by identifying frequencies & trends occurring in certain data fields various benefits can be gained, including improvement of the data model to give a better return on performance and early determination of outliers will strengthen statistical analysis.
