SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DATA QUALITY ASSURANCE, AUDITING, AND CERTIFICATION

摘要

A method for certifying an organization as compliant with a data quality program includes providing one or more education sessions for an organization. The method also includes assessing the organization as to its product data quality, wherein assessing comprises determining a level of knowledge associated with the organization with respect to one or more of Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) allocation techniques, product measurement techniques, and data synchronization practices. The method also includes performing a physical audit of the organization's product data quality practices. The physical audit includes determining whether electronic product data stored by the organization is consistent with one or more physically observable characteristics of a product. The one or more physically observable characteristics include one or more of a brand name, a declared net content, a pack quantity, a product GTIN, a number of the product on a pallet, a country of origin, one or more dimensions of the product, and a gross weight of the product.
