Data Quality Expertise

Data migration can be a very complex project and if not given due consideration early in the process of developing or purchasing a new system it could become very expensive.  You will find that as well as being excellent technically we can speak your language and most of all advise you on the many pitfalls which running a data migration can bring. More often than not its data quality issues that damage a project rather than software failure.

Migrating data from one system to another almost always requires a large amount of data manipulation. There will always be gaps in the data and parts of the data which require transformation. Data Quality perfection is impossible however you need to ensure that all critical data is up to standard for the new system to run properly.

We can instantly use our expertise to improve the quality of your data. Using either advanced data analysis tools or SQL scripting methods, we can quickly build a picture of how your data looks. This usually takes the form of data profiling followed by workshops and finally a report written by us containing information about the quality of your data and our recommendations.

From there you can either follow our recommendations manually or we can update your systems automatically, giving you an audit trail of what has been updated and when. Data Quality Management is an on-going and iterative activity and any new items of data that appear during the migration phases must comply with data standards and business rules.
