How to prepare product data for a commerce rebuild

A practical guide to cleaning, structuring and governing product information before it becomes a website problem.

Product data problems rarely start on the website. They start in spreadsheets, in inconsistent attributes and in unclear ownership.

The experience depends on the systems behind it

  • Make sure product, pricing, inventory and customer information have clear sources.
  • Design the buying journey around real customer tasks rather than the platform structure.
  • Plan for content and product-data ownership after launch, not only during implementation.

A good digital experience is easier to maintain when commerce, product information and operations are designed as one connected system.
