What is MRO data enrichment?

MRO data enrichment adds missing information to your existing records — manufacturer names, part numbers, technical attributes, and classification codes such as UNSPSC or eClass. It is distinct from data cleansing (fixing errors) and data cataloging (building records from scratch).

What information does Sharecat add during enrichment?

Sharecat adds manufacturer names, verified part numbers, model numbers, technical attributes, and standards alignment (UNSPSC, eClass, or your own class library). All enriched data is sourced from proprietary databases and verified supplier documentation.

What systems does Sharecat deliver enriched data for?

Enriched data is delivered in your ERP or CMMS format — including SAP, Maximo, IFS, and Oracle — ready for direct import without manual transformation.

How does the data enrichment process work?

Sharecat follows a 5-step process: (1) Configuration and assessment of your data structure, (2) a status summary identifying gaps and priorities, (3) enrichment using proprietary sources, (4) validation to verify accuracy before delivery, and (5) delivery in your system format with a full report of changes and sources.

How incomplete is typical industrial ERP data?

Based on Sharecat's analysis, more than 60% of industrial ERP records are missing critical information such as manufacturer names, verified part numbers, or technical attributes — limiting procurement automation, reliability analysis, and AI readiness.

DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

Most data migrations transfer the problem — not just the data

Moving records from one system to another is technically straight forward. Delivering data that actually works in the new system is the hard part. Does any of this sound familiar?

You're moving to a new ERPor CMMS and already worried about the state of the data on the other side.

The vendor says migrationis straightforward. Your team knows from experience that it won't be.

You've done a migrationbefore and spent the first year after go-live fixing data problems that cameacross with it.

You don't have the internalresource or specialist knowledge to manage the data quality work alongside themigration project.

Your source system hasyears of accumulated errors, duplicates, and inconsistencies — and you don'twant to bring them along.

WHAT WE DO

Data migration is a data quality project — not just an IT project

The value of a new ERP or CMMS depends entirely on the quality of the data inside it from day one. Sharecat Data Services ensures your data is assessed, cleansed, enriched, and correctly mapped beforeit moves anywhere — so go-live is a clean start, not the beginning of a dataremediation programme.

WHATS INCLUDED

The service includes:

Source system data quality assessment — what you have before you move it

Standards alignment —UNSPSC, eClass, or target system classification applied

Field-by-field data mapping between source and target system

Post-migration validationand reconciliation — every record accounted for

Cleansing of all records prior to migration — duplicates, errors, and inconsistencies resolved

Full delivery report withchange log, quality metrics, and field-level before-and-after comparisons

Enrichment of incomplete records where required

Our 5-step enrichment process

1

Source assessment

We analyse your source system data across every dimension: completeness, accuracy, duplicates, and classification gaps. You receive a full picture before any decisions are made.

2

Mapping

We map every field from your source system to the target system, identifying mismatches, format differences, and missing data that needs to be resolved before migration.

3

Cleanse and enrich

We fix errors, resolve duplicates, and fill critical gaps in the source data. Only clean, complete, correctly structured data moves to the new system.

4

Migrate and validate

Data is transferred to the target system. We reconcile every record — confirming completeness and accuracy in the new environment before go-live.

5

Delivery and handover

We deliver a full migration report— what moved, what changed, and what was fixed — and support your team in confirming the new system is operating correctly.

WHAT YOU GET

A clean starting point — not a copy of your old problems in a new system

Go-live withdata that works

Clean, complete, correctly structured data in your new system from day one — not a migration backlog to manage after launch.

Full traceability

Every change made before and during migration is logged. You have a complete audit trail of what moved, what changed, and why.

Reduced project risk

Data problems are caught and resolved before go-live — not discovered six months after, when they're farmore expensive to fix.

A foundation for the new system

Cataloged, classified, and enriched data supports automation, reporting, and AI from the moment the new system is live.
