Data Entry of Products and Parts from PDF Catalogs

The Client

A Management Consulting Firm in the Energy Sector

Our client is based in the United States and specializes in delivering strategic and operational excellence to enterprises.

Project Objective

The Objective:

Founded with a humble beginning our client with decades in the business of industrial product distribution has grown and evolved to leading business providers in Canada. The client needed to data entry from their product catalogs to excel spreadsheets with fields like product name, dimensions, variants, and prices respectively.

Project Challenges

The Challenges:

The client had hundreds of Product Catalogs for different product categories, while each of them had 5000 to 15000 products in a single catalog.

To deal with the different categories and their respective instructions we first separated them and allotted them to separate teams to curb out any confusion and mistakes.

Copy & paste from the catalogs was not viable as it yielded spaces and junk characters doing so.

They approached our team to have the information taken into their preformatted spreadsheets, which on the other hand needed to have a separate set of instructions for each category.

We had a very short deadline of 6 weeks to complete the task which contained approx. 1.5M products.
