100 Year Old New Jersey Based Business House Took BOP’s Assistance for Precise Data Entry

Data Capture Case Synopsis

The Client - A Global Houseware Specialist

Based in New Jersey and business for over 100 years, the client is an entrepreneur and housewares specialist that started as a small food storage product provider and has grown and evolved to become a known global leader. Through innovative planning and execution, the client has acquired an impressive array of brands and manufacturers all working under one name to provide essential storage products including jars, cooking equipment, and utensils in several materials ranging from plastic to glass to cutting edge metals.

Their goal is to provide a one-stop shopping experience to any who desire quality equipment for their kitchens and homes.

Requirements for the Scanning and Data Entry Project

The client has a monthly shipment of product information cards that are collected from thousands of stores they are in partnership with. This product information includes types of products being sold, stock levels, pricing levels, and customer requests, etc. The client approached our team at BackOffice Pro requiring data capturing services to convert these numerous cards into a comprehensive excel sheet that can be referred to whenever needed for tracking purposes and also to enable brochure creation for each brand.

We were required to assign our best resources to this task and complete estimation of 10 000 cards per week.

Challenges Tackled by BOP’s Data Entry Professionals

Once our team started working on this project, our process was slightly hindered by the quality of the cards we received, because they were mostly handwritten made it difficult to read the information and capture it accurately.

To deal with this challenge, we separated the very badly written cards from the rest of the batch and scanned these cards onto our systems to zoom the images and better read the writing. In cases where this was not effective, we contacted the client for more information.
