The Trillium Software System will be managed by Trillium Software and hosted at one of its data centres. Elsevier will access data quality services on demand by submitting data via the web for it to be validated, standardised and corrected, then returned.
"Assured data quality is essential to the effectiveness of our operations and we found the Trillium Software System to offer the optimal combination of price and functionality of the several solutions we considered," said Ian Roch, vendor manager at Elsevier in the United Kingdom. "Trillium Software's managed offering gives us access to rapid, flexible and scalable deployment, as well as the data quality functionality we require from a vendor with strong references and global expertise."
Elsevier has offices in more than 24 countries and customers in many more, meaning that customer data, names and addresses can be in many languages and styles. This means that the company requires a data quality solution that is able to recognise international characters and address forms and ensure accurate and correct data regardless of source.
"Organisations undertake a master data management initiative with the aim of improving the usefulness of their data," said Ed Wrazen, vice president marketing international at Trillium Software. "In selecting the Trillium Software System, Elsevier recognises that the promise of better data can only be realised through an ongoing, systematic application of quality controls when the data is first entered."
