Poor Data – garbage in, garbage out, money lost?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Retailers with leases need data which spans multiple competencies – estate management, accounts payable, finance control & reporting, maintenance & compliance, utilities management, store performance. Host Gary Marshall points out that it’s rare to find a single person in any retail business who can cover all those bases – but suggests that well-defined teamwork can make the dreamwork.
Poor data often stems from fragmented data, data-gaps, formatting issues, disparate sources like spreadsheets. Poor "data cultures" point to inadequate investment in retained facts which ultimately cost the retail tenant dearly.
But fixing that often seems daunting – especially to non-experts, or non-nerds, or time-challenged execs who already believe the data is in place – until they realise it isn't.
Marshall guides the listener to take a challenge, to find out who in their organisation is responsible for the right Estates and Accounts Payable data.
