Data Grid Technologies understand that not everyone works with the same set of computer tools and this affects how both database and web products will perform. We believe that the best creative ideas need to be supported by the latest advances in technology. That’s why we are always looking out for new ways to realize solutions - whether the final product goes out onto the web, for print, video, slide or CD-ROM. The hardware, manner in which it is set up, the operating system, type of web connection and if applicable, the type of network you are running are all major contributing factors to the performance of any software you run or website you use. With every product released, Data Grid Technologies ensure it has been tested on and designed for the most common and some of the more unusual combinations and we ensure that all web projects can be viewed by the largest audiences - we believe that to restrict the audience is the same as closing your doors on potential customers - the reason we extensively test cross platform. With our internet projects we are well aware how bandwidth restrictions can affect your customers’ view of your site - that's why our sites are designed to industry specifications and ensure your sites work whether accessing via slow modems or broadband connections. For all relevant products, testing is undertaken using Apple Mac's, Windows & Unix based PC's with a variety of operating systems and Palm OS PDAs to ensure the best end user experiences.

• Database Consultancy  
  It may be that you want consultancy regarding a new database project or an existing system. Whichever, Data Grid Technologies' wide ranging database and business expertise will ensure that your needs are fulfilled. With a client base diverse enough to span industry sectors from independent record labels to the manufacturing industry, coupled with the depth of work experience our consultants have as individuals – we understand the differing needs of our clients. You are not just another number in our target market. Consultancy can be undertaken face to face, via Microsoft Net Meeting or similar, via email and / or phone to suit you.

Then we can advise you on the strategy advisable to organize your resources in a suitable manner to achieve these needs and objectives

The most common decisions to be made are with regard to:

1. The most appropriate software to use
2. Strategy for management of data
3. How to train staff to make the most of the resources at hand

• What we do

We take the time to understand the fundamental business requirements behind every project. We are skilled in direct marketing so we know the value of using customer data to its full extent. We examine business processes, key objectives and user behavior to ensure our proposals are fit for purpose. We are prepared to challenge specifications if we believe they will not ultimately deliver the best possible solution. We like to think we can do just about anything related to data, databases and direct marketing. Our staffs have many years experience in both blue chips and SME’s. From the nuts and bolts data mapping and programming end, right through to top line business analysis and campaign planning, we can assist at any stage of a project - or run it from start to finish, invaluable for maintaining continuity. We operate to the very highest service levels: if we say we’ll call, we call; if we agree a deadline, we’ll meet that deadline; if we need to work through the night, we’ll do it. We excel in data cleaning to provide the quality, accuracy and consistency our clients cannot find elsewhere.
Data Services
Maintenance of a database; be this for customers, prospects or members, can be a very time consuming and labor intensive process. Data Grid Technologies can relieve you of this worry and, through our extensive range of bureau services, clean up your data professionally and efficiently. Our bespoke services are not cheap but believe us when we say you get what you pay for in this business!

• Database Management

Finding your database too big to manage properly in house? Getting to the point where you need to employ a DBA but can’t justify it because you can’t show how the position relates directly to revenue generation? Perhaps you should consider outsourcing this side of your database management to Data Grid Technologies. We have a spotless track record in looking after client databases and are happy to provide client references to back up this claim. You can
be sure of your data security and integrity when placing it with us. We have a sensible charging structure based on work carried out because we believe you shouldn’t be ripped off for using you own data when you need it.

• Data Consolidation

 Numerous organizations have come to us with many different data sources or lists to be consolidated into one database, e.g. for a new system implementation and through mergers/acquisitions. Obviously, some data is felt to be of more importance or more accurate than others and so, at Data Grid Technologies, we have developed a strategy to deal with this eventuality. We are able to take up to fifty files simultaneously and de-duplicate them against each other at which point they can be merged into one master file or returned as original files. At the same time the files may be suppressed against any other files (e.g., Mailing Preference Service, Mortality files or customer files) to produce 'clean' data sets. The order in which these files are merged and the priority that records have over each other is completely flexible depending on your requirements.

• Data cleaning/DE-Duplication

At first sight, the simplest of operations and their numerous suppliers who offer this service. However, most of these suppliers will use automatic routines and stop there. Data Grid Technologies use such routines, including an exclusive suite of routines we have developed over time. But we do not stop there! Once the data is as clean as it can be using the tools at our disposal, we then subject it to a rigorous set of manual checks – yes, real people using their brains and experience to hand finish your data. Not a cheap thing to do but an upfront investment which will save you money in the long run.

• Data Merge & Purge

Naturally, you want to identify and remove duplicate names and addresses from your database. You may also want to merge various data sources together to ensure you are not paying list suppliers for contacts you already have on your database. Data Grid Technologies offer a breadth of experience in de-duplicating both international and India data and specialize in sorting out those difficult duplicates at the organizational/company level where your database has a complex set of parent/child relationships.
