Case Study: Largest Consumer Packaged Goods Company achieves 30% reduction in data management efforts and standardized product data with EdgeVerve (Infosys Nia)

How world’s leading consumer goods conglomerate reduced data management efforts by 30% with Infosys Nia

The Largest Consumer Packaged Goods Company, a global leader reaching over 5 billion consumers, was struggling with widespread discrepancies in product information and attributes across systems. These inaccuracies generated customer complaints, GDSN non‑compliance and disrupted orders, shipments and shelf placements — so EdgeVerve (using the Infosys Nia platform) was engaged to standardize data quality.

EdgeVerve implemented an Infosys Nia–based data quality framework aligned to GS1/GDSN, automating big‑data processing, report generation and integrating product, attribute and dimensional systems (HDFS/Spark/Hive, real‑time ingestion, UI data explorer and RESTful services). The work delivered measurable impact: data management efforts dropped by 30%, out‑of‑stock items fell from 8% to 3%, GS1 self‑certification costs were optimized, awards for GS1 implementation were received, and the overall cost/impact of bad data was reduced.
