Information and data quality are high on the agenda of many large and small organisations…
Exactly how do you know whether your data is of an acceptable quality or not? Once you have an idea of how healthy your data is, how do you ensure information is provided by your clients and customers to ensure the continued and improved quality of your data?
Data Quality and a need to reduce the errors generated by the manual handling of data are key objectives within most modern businesses. Allan Webb are experts in the delivery of Data Cleansing in accordance with ISO 8000 Pt 110 and the creation of ISO 22745 compliant database solutions. We offer a consultancy services for clients who wish to implement these standards in order to improve the quality of data used in daily business and modernise data exchange.
ISO 8000
ISO 8000 holds the answer to both those questions. Adopting an ISO 8000 Data Management Strategy drives good practice and transforms your data into something that can be accurately measured and efficiently improved. Prescribing that for data to be of quality, it must have a meta data property (which has an accurate definition) and a value which is measurable. These property value pairs form the cornerstone of high quality data.
ISO 22745
With 1 in 19 keystrokes on a keyboard being an error, studies have shown that data that starts as high quality may not stay that way when it is exchanged between entities. ISO 22745 is an international standard that facilitates automated transaction of data based on Open Technical Dictionaries. Once in ISO 22745 format, the translation of terminology within any classification system to another can be completed based on an XML Schema. This facilitates the automated exchange of Property Value Pairs between any systems using the same Open Technical Dictionary.
Master Data Management
While ISO 8000 can be adopted as a stand-alone method of ensuring data quality, the augmentation of ISO 22745 enhances its benefits to include the eradication of manual handling errors and the time taken to transcribe data from one system to another. Master your data once, use it many times.
