Imagine sending an important email to a customer – and the address is wrong. Or ordering goods you don’t actually need because the wrong numbers were entered into the system. Small mistakes like these happen more quickly than you might think. And this is exactly where data quality comes into play.
Many companies underestimate how much clean, reliable data influences their daily work. Yet it is often the invisible engine that makes smooth processes, smart decisions, and satisfied customers possible in the first place.
In this article, we’ll show you what’s behind data quality, what consequences poor data can have – and, above all, how you can take your data to the next level with simple steps and clever tools.
Quite simply, data quality describes how good your data is. Is it accurate, complete, and up to date? Or is important information missing, or is it simply outdated?
Example: If you maintain a customer database with phone numbers, it is of little use if 30% of the numbers are incorrect or no longer valid. After all, you want to reach your customers and not be frustrated by busy signals.
Good data quality has various dimensions:
Poor data quickly leads to errors – and these often prove costly.
A classic example from logistics: if addresses are entered incorrectly, parcels end up in the wrong place or get lost. The result: expensive reshipments, dissatisfied customers, and a lot of extra work.
You make decisions based on your data. If this data is incomplete or incorrect, you may draw the wrong conclusions – for example, ordering too much or too little merchandise or investing in unprofitable projects.
Imagine your customers receiving incorrect invoices or being contacted with incorrect data. This damages trust and can scare customers away.
Data is constantly changing. Schedule regular times to check your data for errors and ensure it is up to date. This will prevent errors from creeping in and multiplying.
Manual data entry is a major source of errors. With smart solutions like DocBits, documents (like invoices) can be automatically read and data can be transferred to your systems without any mistakes.
Everyone in the company should know how important data quality is – and who’s responsible for what. This is the only way to make lasting improvements.
Good data is not a nice-to-have, but a crucial foundation for your success. It saves time, avoids errors, and ensures satisfied customers.
