 s, one of the strategic initiatives is Customer Zeal and one of the primary
  focus areas was&nbsp;to improve &quot;Contactability.&quot;&nbsp;Our Servi
 ce Contact Data completeness stood at 25% and we started the project with a
  goal of 95%. The current number is hovering around 90%.\n\nThe ultimate&nb
 sp;business purpose was to improve retention and drive NPS scores - which i
 s a big deal in our industry.\n\nWe tackled the problem on multiple fronts:
 \n\n
 Data Governance Effort to lay the Data Quality baseline (Data Profiling and
  Power BI dashboard),&nbsp;and lay out the process to drive alignment acros
 s the organization on process and definitions.\n
 Customer MDM (Individual Facet) to tackle unification, deduping, enrichment
 , and presenting one best version of Contact Data. (Operational MDM) - It i
 nvolved maintenance and integrations to ensure all the source systems and d
 ownstream get the best version of Contact data. It also involved maintainin
 g the relationships between the Contacts to Accounts (Billing Entity) and S
 ites (Service Location Entity).\n
 Data Stewardship to improve the process of Creating and Updating Contacts.\
 n\nThe story does not end here. We are carrying the momentum to start off h
 eavy on Customer Mastering&nbsp;(B2B and B2C). The business goal is to know
  our customer more. Phase 1 is completed and more is to come.\n
