De-duplication

We fix typos, spelling mistakes, improper syntax, and other errors, making it easier to find records when you search for them.
Standardization
We standardize part descriptions using our proprietary Noun-Modifier-Attribute Dictionary containing over 4,100 noun-modifier pairs.
Vendor Name, Item Number
We standardize the vendor name and item number using industry information.
Classification
We assign commodity and class codes using unique MRO taxonomies, giving you more ways to segment and analyze your data.
Data Enrichment
We fill in missing information, such as technical specifications, using data from the manufacturer and industry libraries.
Manufacturer Name, Item Number
