Find out how Dreher Consulting uses proven methods and tools to ensure excellent master data quality - for a smooth go-live, efficient processes and sustainable success.
Imagine your ERP system is an engine. The master data is the fuel. Without the right quality, even the best engine won't run smoothly. Poor data leads to faulty orders, missed deliveries and dissatisfied customers.
Dreher Consulting knows from experience: over 70% of ERP projects struggle with inadequate data. That's why we rely on a well thought-out master data concept right from the start.
Why is the go-live the biggest challenge?
It's simple: this is when it becomes clear whether your data is clean and complete. Even an incorrect article number or duplicate customer entries can block day-to-day business.
Our experience: companies that invest in data quality at an early stage avoid typical go-live problems such as system crashes, incorrect bookings or disgruntled customers.
How do you get your data ready for the ERP launch? Here is our tried-and-tested checklist:
Data audit & analysis: Check the current status of the data, identify duplicates and gaps.
Cleansing & harmonization: Correct, standardize and supplement data.
Standards & governance: Define clear rules for data maintenance and responsibilities.
Process integration & tests: Test master data in processes and integrate it without errors.
Training & change management: Train employees, create awareness of data quality.
Tip: At Dreher Consulting, we integrate these steps seamlessly into your ERP project planning - individually and industry-optimized.
Excel and manual checklists are no longer enough.
We use modern tools for:
Automated duplicate checks
Plausibility checks for article data
