Case Study: Meno Group - Impression #1

Case Study: Level up on efficiency and structure

Meno Group is the first and largest purchasing cooperative for independent traders specializing in hardware, tools, DIY, and household goods in Belgium and Luxembourg.

The primary objective was to consolidate and organize data from a vast and continually expanding product range. Pimcore serves as the central application, facilitating the import of substantial data volumes, enabling Meno to effortlessly present this information to group members in an optimal format for data integrity. Workflows ensure data accuracy by incorporating validation steps and generating comprehensive reports for data completion.

Challenge

Nailing a streamlined data management with +800 attributes

Meno receives product information from diverse data sources, each with its own format and varying levels of quality. A critical step in their process involves seamlessly importing these different data files into a centralized system. This centralization facilitates the enrichment of data and enhancement of data quality. Only after reaching an acceptable quality level, product data should be shared with the Meno Group’s members. This product information serves as a crucial added value for associated members, empowering them to make informed choices from Meno's extensive product portfolio.

Lösung

Crafting clarity with name-based import

Studio Emma embarked on a meticulous data analysis mission to architect an optimized data model for Meno. Wrangling the vast product range and copious attributes required the construction of well-organized "object bricks." The journey included guiding Meno through the process of "Data Normalisation", preventing the chaotic reuse of product attributes. Adding a touch of DIY flair, Studio Emma introduced a feature allowing users to upload .xls data sheets based on column names rather than column numbers. This not only boosts flexibility for manual importing but also renders numerous import profiles obsolete. To empower Meno's data manager, Studio Emma implemented a user-friendly workflow. This system enables real-time monitoring of data imports' quality. Through the addition of workflow notes, the manager can strategically guide the team's actions to enhance data quality for specific products. Custom reports offer a snapshot of this ongoing process.
