Vendor master data services

Improve the supplier data your business relies on.

More reliable spend reporting. Less repeated supplier administration. A clearer basis for migration and ongoing supplier review.

Datanovel assesses the data, helps deliver the improvements and implements ongoing quality controls within the systems your organisation already uses.

01 / Services

Understand the data.
Improve what matters.

Start with an agreed assessment. Use the findings to target the work that matters, then put the right controls around the improved data.

Discuss your priorities
01 / AssessEstablish what needs attentionA scoped assessment of quality, identity and business impact.

We review the agreed supplier population across one or several systems. The assessment distinguishes missing information, invalid values, external verification findings and uncertainty about supplier identities or relationships.

You receive: a quality baseline, evidence-linked exceptions and prioritised recommendations. The findings establish what matters for spend reporting, operations or migration, and the work needed to improve it.

Scope, access, source coverage and deliverables are agreed upfront. Explore the assessment.

02 / ImprovePlan and deliver the improvementCleansing, entity relationships and the process behind the records.

We identify the work that deserves priority, the supplier enquiries and decisions it depends on, and the capacity needed to deliver it. Necessary records are linked; unnecessary duplicates are reviewed with their transaction dependencies.

You receive: a practical remediation plan and the agreed delivery support, including data rules, workflow, progress reporting and changes to the processes that recreate issues. Your team is involved throughout.

Read the cleansing methodology.

03 / MaintainKeep quality visible over timeRepeatable checks, clear ownership and meaningful progress reporting.

We implement recurring checks and exception follow-up around the client's operating needs. Monitoring can cover data quality, supplier status, identity changes and the relationships between records, using agreed sources.

You receive: quality measures with the cases behind them, defined responsibilities and a way to distinguish improvements from new or recurring problems. Cadence and source coverage are agreed for your environment.
