Standardise
Data quality improvement.
The following data quality improvement work will be performed by LDS by matching the data supplied to our reference database of spare parts information:
- Extract and/or standardize the manufacturer name into a separate manufacturer name field
- Extract and/or standardize the manufacturer’s part number into a separate manufacturer part-number field
- Identify suspected duplicates based on manufacturer name and part number
- Map base units of measure to a common standard
- High-level allocation of spares into functional categories
- Provision of attributed data from the reference catalogue
- Noun extraction and categorising to UNSPSC
The customer will be presented with the cleaned data in the Standardise web application that will allow your staff to review and approve/reject/improve the matches as necessary. Our team will liaise with your staff to investigate data inconsistencies and resolve issues.
The data quality process will be subject to a continuous improvement process as the LDS reference database is expanded and improved, all of which will be reflected in the customer-matched data.
