Case Study: a Top 5 Industrial Distributor achieves a single source of truth for 11M+ parts with Verusen

Verusen helps North American Parts Distributor harmonize data to create a single source of truth catalog for 11M+ unique parts in less than 12 months

The client, a top five industrial distributor in North America and a subsidiary of a Fortune 500 company, faced significant challenges managing its extensive inventory data. Using legacy and home-grown systems, the distributor struggled with inconsistent and erroneous data across multiple catalogs following a recent acquisition. This made it difficult to create a reliable, single source of truth for its over 11 million unique parts, a problem that required multiple dedicated resources to manage. Verusen was brought in to address this data harmonization challenge.

Verusen harmonized the client's data to create a single, accurate catalog, providing an immediate and sustainable solution. The results were achieved in under 12 months, with Verusen efficiently managing 11M+ unique parts and achieving an 89% acceptance rate by accurately identifying duplicates. This provided the distributor with the data integrity and confidence needed to optimize inventory, improve customer experience, and build resilience into its supply chain.
