NOCA portal 2.0 is live!
Intelligent master data management for the cycling industry
Component suppliers, assemblers, distributors and OEM brands all need to manage hundreds of master data points for each article (component) and bill of material (bike). This includes technical specifications, documents, images, descriptions, article numbers and sustainability information. Right now, this data is managed across different teams and systems.
The old way of master data management
- Inconsistent and unstructured data in current systems
- Teams cannot find and manage the right data and create Shadow-IT
- Cumbersome data updates across hundreds of excel sheets
- Multiple versions of the same data create confusion
- Error-prone and missing data leads to costly mistakes and delays
- Tidious downloads & manipulations necessary to share data externally
- 12+ months of implentation efforts for general solutions
The new way of master data management
- Central, up-to-date overview for all teams and their requirements
- Single source of truth for internal and external master data management
- Industry-specific data fields for articles and BOMs ensure consistency
- Automated data ingestion improves quality and eliminates manual data entry
- One-on-one and one-to-many data sharing in just a few clicks
- Scalable digital supply chain integration through just one API
- Personal support and training for onboarding in <1 months
