Address quality is the key to lower costs and better deliverability. Over 22%
of all mail contains address errors causing delivery delays, return mail,
or disposal. Primary factors impacting mail quality include: data
entry errors, moves, incomplete address elements, and address conversions.
AddressRM provides advanced address improvement tools to help you get the mail delivered.
- National Change of Address (NCOALink)
-
NCOALink corrects your address lists electronically by identifying
individuals, families, and businesses who have filed a permanent
change-of-address with the USPS within the past 48 months. The NCOALink
database contains over 140 million address changes and is update
weekly. The average list receives approximately 4% correction rate.
-
- Locatable Address Conversion System (LACS)
-
LACS corrects address lists electronically for areas (not
individuals, families or businesses) that have undergone permanent
address changes. These address conversions typically involve
renumbering and renaming rural, highway route, and box numbers to a
more geographically concise city-styled address. If a LACS address is
not corrected it will become undeliverable within 12 months.
-
- Delivery Sequence File2 (DSF2)
-
DSF2 is a computerized file that contains all delivery point
addresses serviced by the USPS, with exception of general delivery.
Unlike CASS, each delivery point is a separate record that conforms to
all USPS addressing standards. It provides a most accurate
method to electronically identify undeliverable addresses in your
database.
NCOALink, LACS, and DSF2 are provided by a non-exclusive
licensee of the USPS.
