Rethinking data management

Trustworthy data is the foundation of every digital organization. But trust is one of the scarcest commodities in data management today. CDQ was founded at the University of St. Gallen in Switzerland and has been a global pioneer in master data quality and data sharing for over eighteen years. Our mission is clear: to help companies provide business partner data that is accurate, reliable, and always up to date—with minimal effort and maximum security. A clean core is crucial for any digital initiative. We help companies create and permanently secure this foundation by providing trustworthy business partner data that enables compliance by design and stabilizes every operational process chain. Because when business partner data is incorrect, the entire company suffers: processes slow down, risks increase, and costs skyrocket. When data is accurate, companies act faster, more precisely, and with complete confidence. What really sets CDQ apart is the Data Sharing Community. A unique network of leading companies and data experts working together to strengthen trust in master data management. The community benefits from a shared data pool of over 200 million reliable business partner records, supplemented by more than eighty external data sources. This collaborative model makes master data management not only more efficient, but also strategically valuable. With the CDQ one-stop shop for business partner master data, companies transform fragmented data records into trusted assets that support operational excellence, informed decisions, and resilient business relationships.
