How did you ensure the accuracy of the data in the Sharepoint site?
Access was restricted to members within the relevant teams. All members could edit the data to ensure efficient sharing of market knowledge. Myself and a colleague were responsible for managing the site and making sure the format was consistent and the quality/accuracy of the info for example verifying against another source and making sure more details were added after a sale completed. This was done through a diary reminder to check and monthly catch up. Version control allows you to see who has made edits so you can follow up with them if information is incomplete
