Introduction

Pricefx's Data Readiness Methodology is a structured approach used by Pricefx and other organizations to prepare data to be ready for effective use in various initiatives, such as data integration and analytics. This process involves steps to identify critical data, ensure good data quality, and ensure timely data availability.

In the context of implementing a pricing solution, data is considered an important component. Therefore, Pricefx has established a Data Readiness Process to assist their customers in preparing data before embarking on the implementation of pricing solutions. This process helps ensure that the data used in pricing solutions is reliable, of high quality, and available when needed.
