C2RO BLOG | Why having accurate data is critical during an economic crisis?



Data is essential to driving progress and growth for businesses; It allows them to see where they stand and identify the major challenges that remain for them to accomplish their business objectives. As companies continue to invest in new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and video analytics, their success rate and ability to differentiate themselves from competitors will depend on their data management skills, and how quickly they can derive insights from their data.

Why companies don’t trust their data

Having accurate data to obtain valuable information and quickly derive actionable insights on your customers and business operations is what allows you to develop a sustainable competitive advantage. A report created by KPMG shows that only a small minority of companies trust the data they capture on customers (38%) and their business operations (34%). This is mainly due to companies still using their outdated technology for data analysis, or investing in new solutions, without carefully evaluating the quality and accuracy of the data and insights. Failure to ask such questions will leave companies with inaccurate information, partial insights and ineffective business strategies that fail to generate any ROI.

The consequences of inaccurate data

Unwillingness to invest With a lack of trust in data quality, the confidence in the results diminishes and so does a company’s willingness to invest further in digital technologies and analytics.

No competitive edge Competitors that have more accurate data than you will have deeper insights on key demographic groups, allowing them to identify new business opportunities and increase their market share.

Lost revenue Inaccurate data leads to decisions being made off estimates rather than actual performance, leading to ineffective changes and low ROI from the implemented initiatives. Why data accuracy is important during an economic downturn As we continue to navigate through the economic crisis being led by the global health crisis, Covid-19, companies are putting an emphasis on maximizing operational efficiency to build better margin headroom to tackle any challenges. Unlocking these efficiencies is what will allow companies to drive business growth during and after the economic downturn, which is why it is critical to invest in comprehensive and accurate data analysis technologies.
