CEG

Starting point

CEG is a provider of dynamic and cross-industrial data on the solvency of private individuals, thus helping companies to gain the know-how needed for a modern risk management. One of the leading information agencies on the German market, CEG supports you in one of the following areas of your day-to-day business:

  • Minimizing bad debt losses

  • Thereof 43 million negative data on private individuals
  • 80 million addresses
  • 5,7 million links of private individuals to their business
  • 18 million houses (geographic data)

Quick handling and process integration are of key importance.

However, things look quite different in practice:

  • Information has to be retrieved over the Internet or telephone
  • The complete process is managed manually (entry of inquiry data, …)
  • Multiple inquiries because information is not centrally available
  • Retrieved information is not assigned to the SAP customer record
  • In most of the cases, information is only available on paper
  • etc.
