Data Packages

Digital Resale Support Service

Data packages are often the preferred method for collecting product data from suppliers.
Typically, the data is then used to populate a Content Management System which feeds a web
platform.

There are pros and cons to using Data Packages – the main challenge being to keep the
assortment accurate and up to date because the update process is entirely manual.
Sandvik Coromant can usually meet all the requirements for the type of data required, along with
a product taxonomy and classification system (if you do not already have one)

Advantages
- flexibility to arrange the data on a webpage to your own requirements
- having a unique web page design/content/layout creates a point of difference in the
marketplace
- packages allow you to collect and present the same data set from all suppliers for the same
type of product. This gives a better user experience through presentation consistency and
permits easier product comparisons from different suppliers

Request Process
a) Contact your appointed Sandvik Coromant Support Engineer
b) Provide Sandvik Coromant with your data collection template
c) Sandvik Coromant completes and returns your template
d) Data is validated and published
