Scope
The project involved the Material Master Data Cleansing and Standardization of approximately 100,000 SKUs. This included:
- Enhancement of material specification data via web sourcing and physical verification.
- Classification of material master data.
- Codification using the UNSPSC logic.
Material Master Data Cleansing and Standardization was done for approximately 100,000 SKUs
The project was completed over a span of 10 months
Our Solution
To meet the client’s needs, we provided a comprehensive suite of services:
- Analyzing, cleansing, segregating, cataloguing, and creating a robust database for the Material Master.
- Conducting a physical audit of materials to ensure accurate and reliable data.
- Identifying and eliminating duplicate entries.
- Tracking and recording all data with respect to different statuses (new creation, clarification, existing code) and quantities.
- Linking images to each data entry for enhanced visual reference and verification.
- Establishing optimal levels for cost savings, finding the correct balance between risk and criticality levels.
- Implementing a quantitative evaluation methodology to suggest inventory control parameters.
- Developing a methodology to analyze risk pooling and correct duplicates that impact inventory costs.
