Product Data Readiness Audit

Cinderhaven Provisions · A portfolio piece

A complete product data health audit for a fictional $25 million specialty food company, demonstrating how dirty product data costs a growing brand $361,000 a year in chargebacks, stalled launches, and lost shelf space, and how 27 hours of data entry fixes nearly all of it. The project produces an interactive HTML report, a two-page executive tearsheet, an operational dashboard, an Excel workbook with triage list and broker intake checklist, and a standalone Data Debt Calculator that any specialty food brand can use to estimate their own exposure. Built with R, Quarto, and SQLite. One command reproduces everything.
