I have a large set of customer records sitting in several Excel workbooks that now need a thorough clean-up. The raw files contain duplicate entries, inconsistent phone and address formats, occasional spelling mistakes, and a few empty fields that must be handled correctly. Your task is to take these spreadsheets and return a single, well-structured file ready for analysis and import into our CRM. Scope • Import the original workbooks I provide. • De-duplicate rows while keeping the most complete record for each customer. • Standardise column headers, date formats (DD/MM/YYYY), phone numbers (E.164), and address cases. • Flag obviously invalid or missing data so I can review it later. • Deliver the final output in Excel (.xlsx) plus a short change log outlining the key cleaning actions you performed. Acceptance criteria 1. No duplicate customer IDs or email addresses remain. 2. All mandatory columns (name, email, phone) are filled or clearly marked “MISSING”. 3. Formatting rules above are applied consistently across every row. 4. File opens error-free in Microsoft Excel 365. If you are comfortable working in Excel with functions such as VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, TEXTSPLIT, Power Query, and can demonstrate similar data-cleaning projects, let’s get started.

Hi! Data cleaning and structuring is something I've done professionally, and this project is a great fit for my background. I'll import all your source workbooks, de-duplicate records keeping the most complete version of each, and standardize everything — column headers, date formats to DD/MM/YYYY, phone numbers to E.164, and address casing — consistently across every row. Any missing or clearly invalid data will be flagged so nothing slips through quietly. You'll end up with one clean, analysis-ready Excel file that opens without errors in Excel 365, plus a clear change log detailing every cleaning action taken. I'm comfortable with VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, Power Query, and TEXTSPLIT, and my professional background in SQL and large-scale data migration means I think about data integrity at every step — not just surface formatting. I've handled messy, inconsistent datasets before and I know how to make decisions about edge cases without needing to come back with questions on every row. The deliverable will be CRM-import ready from the moment you open it. Share the files whenever you're ready and I'll give you a turnaround estimate based on volume. Happy to do a quick sample clean on the first sheet so you can verify the output format before I work through everything. Looking forward to it!

Hello, how are you? I'd be happy to offer my professional services with immediate availability. It's a task I handle perfectly well. I have over 25 years of experience in quantitative data management, from data entry to cleaning, consistency, processing, and database analysis. I've worked for several years in private consulting firms and universities conducting quantitative public opinion studies, as well as in third-sector organizations monitoring and systematizing social aid projects, and in government agencies monitoring social programs. In all cases, I've focused on loading, cleaning, processing, and analyzing data from various sources (including JPG images). I've worked with databases in very poor condition, which has honed my skills. I have a perfect command of Excel, especially its tools for loading, cleaning, and analyzing data (validation rules, conditional formatting, pivot tables, formulas, and macros). I also specialize in using SPSS, Access, Power BI, and other data management software. I am very meticulous and detail-oriented in my work because I like to do several checks before delivery to guarantee the quality of the work. I can start today. To estimate the total work time, I would need to know the number of records, the number of fields (columns), and, if possible, the data type (numeric, dates, text, etc.) and its complexity. Best regards, Marco
