Clean up your product master data

Clean up your product master data with Aurum: a practical, on-prem approach built for Azerbaijani teams.

Clean Up Your Product Master Data

Messy product catalogs create significant bottlenecks in procurement, financial reporting, and every operational system that relies on accurate item data. When duplicate records proliferate across different systems, organizations struggle with fragmented visibility and unreliable spend analysis. Aurum provides a practical, on-premises solution designed to eliminate this noise by identifying duplicate records and merging them into a single, authoritative golden master, ensuring your team works from a single source of truth. Beyond deduplication, Aurum empowers your organization to standardize its entire catalog by classifying every item against the globally recognized UNSPSC taxonomy. To ensure absolute data integrity, the platform is built on a human-in-the-loop philosophy: no AI-generated proposal is ever published without the explicit review and approval of a human steward. This combination of automated intelligence and manual governance allows you to scale your data cleanup efforts without sacrificing precision or control.

Capabilities

Why Teams Choose Aurum for Master Data Cleanup

Establish one authoritative golden record per product to eliminate confusion caused by duplicates scattered across disparate systems.

Maintain total governance with a human-in-the-loop workflow where no AI proposal is published without explicit steward approval.

Ensure data safety via a reversible override architecture that stores edits separately, allowing you to roll back changes without affecting source data.

Guarantee transparency with a full audit trail and source lineage for every record, documenting exactly where data originated and who modified it.

Improve spend analysis and supplier benchmarking through integrated UNSPSC classification for consistent, international product coding.

Rely on a deterministic matching engine that provides predictable, explainable results that your team can trust and defend during audits.

Core Capabilities for Product Catalog Management

Duplicate Detection and Merging

Aurum's deterministic matching engine identifies records that represent the same product and merges them into one golden master record, reducing catalog noise and data conflicts.

UNSPSC Taxonomy Classification

Each product record is classified into the UNSPSC hierarchy, giving procurement and finance teams a consistent, internationally recognized coding structure for spend analysis.

Human-in-the-Loop Approval

No proposed match, merge, or classification is published automatically. Every suggestion waits for a designated steward to review and approve it before it affects any downstream system.

Reversible Override Architecture

Edits are stored as overrides on top of source data, never written back in place. If a decision turns out to be wrong, it can be undone cleanly without data loss.

Audit Trail and Source Lineage

Every record carries a complete history of where it originated, which sources contributed to it, and every change made — giving compliance and governance teams the transparency they need.

On-Premises Deployment

Aurum runs inside your own infrastructure, keeping sensitive product and supplier data within your organization's security perimeter.

The Aurum Data Cleanup Process

1Ingest product records from your existing systems into Aurum, preserving full source lineage for every item.
2The deterministic matching engine scans the catalog and surfaces candidate duplicate records grouped for review.
3A human steward examines each candidate group, confirms or rejects the proposed merge, and selects or edits the golden master attributes.
4Approved records are classified into the UNSPSC taxonomy, with the steward able to override any suggested code.
5All accepted changes are stored as audited overrides, leaving source data intact and every decision traceable.
6The clean, approved golden master is made available to downstream systems, ready for procurement, reporting, and analytics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Aurum publish changes to our catalog automatically?

No. To maintain strict data governance, Aurum is designed so that no AI proposal is published without human approval. Every match, merge, and classification must be confirmed by a designated steward before it takes effect.

What happens if a steward approves a merge that later turns out to be wrong?

Because Aurum utilizes a reversible override architecture rather than writing changes back into the source data, any decision can be undone. The original source records remain intact and untouched throughout the process.

Does Aurum replace our existing product data sources?

No. Aurum acts as a governance layer that sits on top of your existing sources. It reads from them and produces a governed golden master without modifying the original source systems.

Why is UNSPSC classification included in the platform?

UNSPSC is a globally recognized international taxonomy. By consistently coding every item, organizations can perform more accurate spend analysis, simplify supplier comparisons, and streamline regulatory reporting.

How does Aurum support data governance and compliance audits?

Aurum maintains a comprehensive audit trail and source lineage for every record. This allows you to demonstrate to auditors exactly where each data point originated, what changes were made, and which steward approved those changes.
