The Data Quality Challenge

“As a small Data Team at RICS we faced the challenge of removing known duplicate records within our CRM system, the difficulty was finding these records in a vast database and automating the amends”

Data Quality Solution

“By using DQ for Dynamics™ we were able to break down our database to review data geographically and based on record types.  The set-up of the searches were so simple and for the first time we could actually see the volumes of potential duplicates and report progress to the organisation.”

The Results

“The results were a success, through the flexibility of being able to add new fields to the output we went from reviewing 50 duplicates to 70 duplicates per hour in no time at all.  In total, over a seven week period, a team of three people reviewed, perfected and merged 18,000 records. This would not have been achievable without this tool.

Although the main checks are now complete we are still using the system to monitor new data and ensure that we maintain quality and uniqueness of records.”
