Typical data cleansing projects

 

CRM systems upgrade

CRM systems are notorious for the lack of quality in their data. Typically client records are duplicated, contact data is out of date and the system rarely meets the strategic objectives promised from the vendors. A required system upgrade is often an opportunity to get the data quality improved to try and ensure the new upgraded system delivers the results every marketing department wants.

Rigel Systems will start with an audit of your current system data. We will report on the data validity (age and completeness) and quality (duplicates and fitness for purpose) - with a conclusion as to the possible remedial action that can be taken. Possible actions are:

  • Developing duplicate removal scripts
  • Checking client records against industry databases (Dun and Bradstreet for instance)
  • Manual data entry to complete missing information etc.
  • Data restructuring to better meet the client's strategy
  • Recommendations on changes to data maintenance procedures to lock in any data cleansing work done

Our consultants have experience on many large CRM systems and will understand the possible data maintenance weaknesses besetting the systems involved.

HR System going self-service

Many HR system upgrades involve moving to "self service" - and this can mean the exposure of the data (and all it's faults) to the staff for the first time. Getting the data correct is therefore a vital part of going self-service.

  • Cross checking HR data with other "Personel" type data sources (payroll, pension and security systemsetc.)
  • Completeness checking for key information
  • Bulk updates from manual file records

Our consultants understand the sensitivity of HR records and the absolute requirement for accuracy in all cases
