SmartSTANDARDS™

SmartSTANDARDS is Optime’s solution to the common Supply Chain challenges related to data integrity and coherence that arise when multiple external parties provide data about the same entities (suppliers, items etc.) but use their own coding and naming standards for them.

This translation map is available to all applications throughout the enterprise and significantly improves data visibility, integrity and accuracy of analytics and reporting. SmartSTANDARDS helps maximize data coherence and provides visibility into the true nature of data across various business entities and applications, ensuring that apples are always being compared to apples and that all apples are accounted for.
