Emerson Process Management, a global supplier of measurement, analytical, and monitoring instruments and services based in Austin, Texas, had a new data warehouse designed for analyzing customer activity to improve service and marketing that was full of inaccurate and redundant data.

Assess the potential business impact of these data quality problems. What decisions have to be made and steps taken to reach a solution?
