Things to consider while performing data cleansing

The fundamental problem with data quality is fairly straightforward. If your data is of low quality, then the decisions taken by your organization, based on that data, will be worthless. Thus, data cleansing or cleaning is critical to ensure an acceptable level of data integrity which will ultimately lead to high-quality data and better decision making.

  1. Things to consider while performing Data Cleansing

  2. Identify Patterns In Errors While taking up data cleansing your main aim should be to identify the patterns of errors. This approach not only allows you to find the origin of inaccuracies in the data but also gives you an opportunity to fix the anomalies for good. While most of the errors in data occur in the capturing phase, a number of inconsistencies creep in during the processing phase as well. By following a structured approach and with a focus on the sources of errors you can cleanse your data more effectively.

  3. Control Duplication With Standardization Duplicate entries in a database are a major hindrance to any business. In some cases, duplicate data renders the whole database ineffective. Processing information from such entries is time-consuming and often leads to undesired results. To keep such double whammy at bay, you must incorporate standardization in your data cleansing process. All it takes is a good understanding of data entry points and choosing a standard for authentic data. If you are not an expert on this process, it’s in your best interest to go for data cleansing servicesof a reputed vendor.

  4. Leverage The Latest Technology When it comes to data cleansing, businesses often go in for conventional methods. While this approach does yield quality results, a lot of your productive time and resources are wasted in manual processes. Over the years data sciences have evolved rapidly and now offer a host of automated tools that give excellent results. Artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning tools cleanse that data and at the same time prevent erroneous entries in the future, thus minimizing your expenses on data cleansing.

  5. Train Your Team Once you are through with the data cleansing process, make sure that you communicate the new standards of data capture to your team. If necessary, train them to maintain the standardized format throughout the data capture process. When your data capture and processing team are on the same page about the health of the database, you will be able to keep your data in good health for a longer time.
