The Challenge
A large industrial manufacturing company was preparing to migrate to a new SAP CRM system—but their existing data was a mess. With over 170,000 client and vendor records full of inconsistent formats, missing fields, and potentially invalid contact details, the team lacked confidence in the integrity of their data. They considered hiring temporary staff for manual cleanup, a time-consuming process projected to cost over $50,000 and carry a high risk of human error.
The Solution
TechArk stepped in with a smarter, automated alternative. We used an industry-leading data validation tool to clean, standardize, and verify the company’s entire database. Once validated, we restructured the records for seamless import into SAP—ensuring the new CRM environment was populated with accurate, trusted data. The solution saved the client time and money while delivering far higher quality. Impressed with the outcome, the client added another 150,000 records to the project and engaged TechArk for process mapping and long-term data governance planning.
