A best practice for a solid information base
D&B Data Rationalisation Service consolidates the customer and supplier
information in your legacy systems to create consistent, integrated and
enhanced master files.
Data rationalisation ensures that all your divisions, departments and
functions are working from a common base of quality business information. It
integrates customer and supplier information across your business units, so
you can measure the total scope of your relationship with any individual
company or group of companies. And it makes it possible to identify and
leverage additional opportunities with customers and suppliers that are
members of the same corporate family.
