Conversion Services International Addresses Business Impact of Data
Quality with New Service Offering - DQXpress(TM) Helps to Quickly
Assess and Improve Data Quality to Support Sound Decision-Making
and Regulatory Compliance - EAST HANOVER, N.J., May 9
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Conversion Services International, Inc.
(OTC:CSII) (BULLETIN BOARD: CSII) ("CSI"), a premier professional
services firm exclusively focused on delivering the value in
business intelligence, data warehousing and data management
solutions to Global 2000 organizations and other businesses, today
announced the launch of a new service offering known as DQXpress.
Designed for companies seeking to formalize a continuous data
quality improvement program, DQXpress "jumpstarts" the process by
identifying, prioritizing, and planning the resolution of critical
data quality issues in just four weeks. Tim Furey, CSI's Chief
Technology Officer, said, "Industry research estimates that low
data quality costs businesses billions of dollars and seriously
reduces the success rate of strategic data-related initiatives.
Previously downplayed as a lesser annoyance, low data quality is
now acknowledged as a serious business problem that begs to be
addressed. CSI DQXpress is a proactive means for companies to
ensure the consistent delivery of accurate, reliable, and trusted
information for their enterprises." Scott Newman, CSI's President,
said, "Previously, data quality was perceived to be an IT problem.
In reality, it's one of the most crushing business issues faced by
organizations today. Having confidence in the accuracy and
comprehensiveness of one's data is essential to sound decision-
making and regulatory compliance. That's why we've launched
DQXpress - it's designed to rapidly assess and continuously improve
data quality." The four-week service offering that utilizes CSI's
expertise, processes, and technology, DQXpress includes: hands-on
data quality assessment on a targeted scope; the deployment of a
performance management framework on an existing business
intelligence platform for ongoing auditing and monitoring of data
quality (at no additional cost to the client); the development of a
best practices data quality plan and implementation strategy; and
formal training in best practices and data quality technology.
Furey commented, "This offering is truly unique, since at the end
of the engagement, CSI seeks to transfer knowledge to the client so
that they can continue to improve their data quality on their own."
Also unique to this offering is CSI's inclusion of leading-edge
data quality technology, which can be installed at no additional
cost to the client. Furey added, "Our longstanding relationships
with best-of-breed vendors enable us to leverage their technology
on behalf of our clients. Few, if any, solutions providers can
include these market-leading products as part of a service offering
at no additional cost to the client." Attractively priced at
approximately one-third of similar offerings, DQXpress is available
now. More information about DQXpress can be accessed at
