1. 1WorldSync Data Accuracy Scorecard (DAS)
A New Outlook
CHALLENGE: Ensure sustainable data quality for weights, dimensions, barcodes, and labeled
content to consistently match digital content with the physical product.
With the capability to quickly exchange product data in today’s marketplace, the demand
for accurate and complete product information is greater than ever. The ability to govern
the quality of an organization’s product data is a challenging task which includes internal
sponsorship, accountability, cleansing, matching, and ongoing commitment for high-quality
product data. The capability to audit and monitor the quality of the data through a simple and
actionable process is important to any organization’s sustainability efforts. However, the typical
analytical solution of choice to implement this process has historically been spreadsheets,
which quickly become outdated and cumbersome.
Solution: 1WorldSync Data Accuracy Scorecard (DAS)
The 1WorldSync Data Accuracy Scorecard utilizes GS1 industry standards and tolerances
around product data to validate the product data quality. The DAS enables organizations to
better implement their data quality programs and ensure a continuously-improving cycle for
maintaining the quality of product information. Specifically, the DAS can provide the ability to
address the following:
CONNECTING TRUSTED PRODUCT DATA EVERYWHERE®
