Data collection is the process of gathering and measuring information about the variables of interest, in a systematic way that allows one to answer the stated research questions, test hypotheses, and evaluate results.

 

What can Data Collection give to your business?

 

1. Data helps you increase the Effectiveness and Efficiency of Business Processes

Accurate data collection will help you understand ongoing business processes. This is important because waste is a problem every company has to solve. Wasted resources and wasted time will ultimately have an impact on the Company's profits. Examples of data that can be collected by Ports to improve business processes are company asset data, goods data in warehouses, product placement locations, and real-time sales stock quantities.

 

2. Data helps you understand performance

Have you ever wondered how your team, department, company, marketing efforts, customer service, shipping, or any other part of your company is doing? Collecting and reviewing data can show you how all of this is performing. Performance data provides the clarity needed for better results. Examples of data that can be collected by Ports to improve business processes are employee attendance data, employee location data (real-time), and key performance indicators (KPI) of production employees.
