IQ Office offers a complete, highly integrated solution to address and resolve Information
Quality issues. This includes transforming, validating, standardising, matching
and integrating a wide array of data sources, both in batch mode and in real-time
at the point of data capture.
IQ Office consists of the following four distinct components:
Product Editions
IQ Office is supplied as one of three product editions - each containing a selection of the above
components. The three editions of IQ Office are cumulative in that each contains
all of the functionality of the previous edition. The IQ Office product editions
are:
ARF (Address Reference File) Edition
IQ Office - Address Reference File Edition is at the core of our information quality
capabilities. It includes real-time and batch capabilities via the IQ Rapid Address
and IQ Standardiser components.
The primary purpose of this edition is address validation. This address validation
capability can be easily extended to include geographic coding by licensing and
adding additional data such as GNAF and boundary data. A key competitive advantage
of ARF Edition is the ability to incorporate customer specific address and geographic
data that may not be publicly available or that may involve the creation of custom
data sets to meet customer specific requirements.
The functionality of the ARF Edition can also be extended by licensing additional
Grammars (logic that provides extra parsing and standardisation functionality).
Importantly, all of this functionality is encapsulated in a single software installation
so the customer is not required to install and manage multiple, discreet pieces
of software.
IQ Office can also be used as an ESRI® ArcGIS®
compliant Locator Service for address cleansing and geocoding. Read more about the Locator
Service here.
DTS (Data Transformation Services) Edition
IQ Office - Data Transformation Services Edition includes additional data parsing
and standardisation functionality that would otherwise need to be licensed over
and above standard ARF Edition functionality. This edition is typically used in
data transformation environments such as CRM or ERP data conversions, data warehousing
and/or other Extract Transform and Load (ETL) processes. The functionality available
in the DTS Edition can be used in batch and/or real-time implementations.
Enterprise Edition
IQ Office - Enterprise Edition includes all of our core information quality capabilities
in a single product. The main additions in this edition are the IQ Profiler and
IQ Matcher components. Again, it can be used in real-time and/or batch mode and
can be integrated into existing systems.
IQ Office Enterprise Edition is the core component of solutions such as:
