CLEAN OPERATIONS BEFORE SCALE
SKU cleanup and item master setup
Create a usable product master by removing duplicates, normalising naming and defining variants, barcodes and ownership.

THE PROBLEM
Fix the operating constraint, not just the screen.
Create a usable product master by removing duplicates, normalising naming and defining variants, barcodes and ownership.
- Duplicate or inconsistent SKUs
- Stock figures are not trusted
- Purchasing and receiving lack ownership
RECOMMENDED STARTING POINT
Defined delivery work package
Final scope depends on the existing platform, data volume, access and client-side readiness.
WHAT WE SET UP
A clear deliverable list.
Every item is reviewed against agreed acceptance criteria before handover.
DELIVERABLE 1
Duplicate review
Configured, checked and documented for the agreed use case.
DELIVERABLE 2
Naming convention
Configured, checked and documented for the agreed use case.
DELIVERABLE 3
Variant and barcode map
Configured, checked and documented for the agreed use case.
DELIVERABLE 4
Governed import file
Configured, checked and documented for the agreed use case.
DELIVERY MAP
From evidence to a working handover.
The plan stays small enough to govern and detailed enough to test.
| Stage | What happens | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Review | Current setup, data, customer journey and access | Scope and risk note |
| Build | Configuration, content or workflow implementation | Milestone review |
| Test | Real devices, scenarios and exceptions | QA and issue log |
| Handover | Training, account ownership and next actions | Handover pack |
TIMING AND PRICE
A bounded engagement, not an open-ended retainer.
A seven-to-twenty-business-day delivery target is set only after access, content and data readiness are confirmed. Published prices are starting points, not blind quotes.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
Questions this service should answer.
Clear expectations are part of the deliverable.
What do you need before work starts?
Access to the current platform, a decision-maker, existing content or data, and agreement on the primary customer or operational outcome.
Will you use custom CSS?
No. The Mitrend Digital site build uses Kadence, Max Mega Menu and native WordPress blocks. Client projects are scoped separately around the chosen platform and maintainability requirements.
What happens after launch?
You receive ownership, handover notes and a prioritised next-step list. Ongoing support is optional and separately scoped.
