Data wash - get 100% control over your data quality
Clean data. Right customers. Right decisions.
With data washing from Collectia - delivered via our data platform Qatchr - you get updated and validated master data on both businesses and private customers. The result is fewer errors in your systems, better risk management and sharper sales and credit decisions.
Why data washing?
Master data errors cost time, money and opportunities. Incorrect addresses, outdated phone numbers, bankrupt companies or advertising-protected individuals make it harder to deliver, invoice, communicate - and collect. Datavask ensures that your CRM, ERP and financial systems are built on quality data so you can act on the facts.
Quick wins
Fewer wrong deliveries and returned mail
Cleaner campaign lists and higher conversion
Lower credit risk and better liquidity
Less manual work - more automation
Data washing includes validation (checking against sources), correction, standardization and duplicate handling. Validation is a subset where data is checked against authoritative sources.
Depends on data volume, fields and enrichment requirements. We estimate time and scope at start-up and can complete both one-off and ongoing jobs.
We do. We clean and enrich both private and corporate data - legally and in compliance with GDPR.
In addition to the sink itself, we can set up monitoring in Qatchr that automatically updates when something changes (address, status, payment remarks, etc.).
We start with a health check that measures duplicates, blanks, standardization rate and expected match rate - and recommend a realistic plan.
Answer. Many choose to supplement with credit reports and ongoing credit monitoring to strengthen credit policies.
What can we validate and update?
We tailor data washing to your needs. You choose which fields you want us to enrich and quality assure.

CPR validation and status (e.g. deceased, departed, no permanent residence)
Payment remarks and debt information
Advertising protection (opt-out of commercial contact)
How it works
We start by identifying your needs, data sources and desired frequency. This gives us a clear picture of what information needs to be cleaned and how the process can best be adapted to your systems.

Credit information and credit reports
When your data is up to date, you get the most value by adding credit information. A credit lookup through Qatchr provides a quick overview of customers' ability to pay and any payment remarks. This helps you make confident decisions - before you extend credit or enter into a partnership.
