Expert Index and Benchmark Data Management from Sourcing to True System‐Ready Data
The award-winning RIMES Benchmark Data Service® (BDS®) delivers all your data in a validated, customized feed — that is completely “ready‐to‐use” in any of your in‐house or third‐party systems. We become your complete “sourcing-to-destination-system” data manager, expertly checking and transforming all of your benchmark data for highly accurate and completely end-user-ready data:
- Benchmark data, characteristically different from other data types, takes more time to work with. Centralizing its management with our data specialists ensures high quality data delivered faster
- Benchmark data is likely used by a diverse range of functions and for different purposes within your firm – meaning multiple end-user systems, each with their own formatting requirements. We individually customize data for more than 60 systems for true end‐user‐ready data
- Your hidden costs of reformatting and customizing the data for each business purpose are likely higher than what you think they are (and we can help you calculate it). And manual workarounds can make your data quality suffer
