Search Methods and TechnologyĪn inaccurate, slow, or difficult-to-use search may also contribute to the reasons a business user may not be able to complete the due diligence before submitting a new request and, hence, end up creating a duplicate in the system. However, due to various business and strategic reasons, companies do defer the projects needed for consolidating master data. Normally, consolidation or data quality projects during or after the merger help to overcome such duplicates. The new systems in the landscape potentially have similar master data records (e.g., vendors, customers, or business partner entities with whom both companies have been doing business). Merger and AcquisitionsĪ merger or acquisition between companies can often be the reason behind most of the duplicate master data in the landscape. There are many reasons that duplicate records end up in any company’s landscape. With focus on and awareness about the importance of good data quality, companies have done a lot of work in this area in recent years, and with the help of technology innovations, they are in a better position to deal with duplicates in their IT landscape. These duplicates might be in the system knowingly or unknowingly. Every organization, irrespective of its size, location, business line, or industry sector, has to deal with the challenges of duplicate records in its IT landscape.
