Poor data quality costs businesses significantly through wasted labor, lost productivity and direct financial losses. Rapid changes in circumstances like addresses, phone numbers, jobs and relationships mean that master data changes at a rate of around 2% per month. Siebel's data management solution and new data quality products from Oracle help address these issues through comprehensive data profiling, cleansing, matching and enrichment capabilities. Regular data stewardship is important for ongoing monitoring and governance to maintain high quality master data.

12. Two Facts about Data Quality The Data Quality Challenge is an iceberg The biggest DQ threats are the ones we do not see. Data Profiling lowers the water line and draws a clear view of the quality issues Data value decays Data is an asset which value decays over time Business events can make this worse M&A, new applications, new products, new contact files, etc Quality is not a one shot process but a constant effort in the enterprise processes. Data Quality needs to be pervasive and continuous .

Hybrid Algorithm Industry’s Best Matching Technology Heuristic Probabilistic Deterministic Phonetic Linguistic Empirical Best Solution: Hybrid “ Which algorithm is the best in solving my searching and matching needs?” The answer is “No single algorithm is capable of compensating for all the classes of error and variation present in identity data.”. In order to achieve a consolidated view of your identity data, you will need a combination of these algorithms, and more, each one addressing a particular class of problem, Oracle Matching Server uses a variety of techniques, including the six mentioned here and many more, to address different classes of error and variation in identities

A Day in the Life of a Data Steward Data Stewardship is a critical component of DQ Process Runs profiling routines to monitor overall DQ within application Inspects most crucial or known problem areas Gains deep-level understanding of data (e.g. min, max, # nulls..) Creates and applies new data rule based on profiling results Resolves duplicates and creates links Reviews history and audit trail Defines compliance rules and policies Defines event and policies for ongoing monitoring and management Executes corrective action: recover, unmerge, etc. Performs ongoing monitoring of data quality

31. Information Completeness Do we have complete profiling information for our accounts / contacts? Where are the information holes? Information Validity Does the customer have valid address, phone number and email? Have we been able to communicate to the customer using stored contact point information? Information Uniqueness (Duplication) What is the duplicate rate in our accounts and contacts? What is the trend over time? Which systems creates the most duplicates? Information Accuracy Is the information still up to date Does the information have the proper integrity based on available sources and/or defined business rules? Data Quality Scorecard
