Plane analogy

In airports, agents are regularly confronted with issues at each step of standard processes. Known issues are resolved promptly following established protocols.

In case of unknown situations, clear escalation paths are followed to address the issue.

Similarly, data quality remediation processes should help ensure prompt resolution of issues and errors.


Benefits

Some of the benefits of Remediation are the following:

Quick error correction

Remediation enables rapid intervention to correct errors identified during data quality checks, minimizing the impact of inaccurate data on operational and strategic decisions. This ensures that errors do not propagate through systems, reducing the cost and effort required for subsequent corrections.

Reliability

By regularly correcting inconsistencies and errors, the enterprise can maintain and improve the reliability of its databases. This increases user and customer confidence in the enterprise' digital services, crucial for travel reservations and management operations.

Efficiency

By resolving data issues at their source, remediation helps simplify business processes, reducing the time and resources needed to handle exceptions and errors. This allows teams to focus on higher value-added tasks.
