Core Data Processing Services

Every service is engineered for accuracy, compliance, and speed — so your campaigns are processed correctly, every time.

Full-Service CSB

Direct Mail Data Management

As a premier Direct Mail Computer Service Bureau, we provide a secure home for your donor file. NCOA/CASS is performed periodically in keeping with USPS regulations. Deceased, do-not-mail, and DMA pander records are flagged frequently via multiple processes to prevent future mailings.

  • Secure donor file storage and management
  • Periodic NCOA/CASS per USPS regulations
  • Deceased and do-not-mail suppression
  • DMA pander file processing
List Deduplication

Merge / Purge Processing

Merge records from multiple data sources while omitting duplicates, do-not-mail suppressions, deceased, and DMA panders. NCOA/CASS is included. We've perfected our own proprietary Merge/Purge system over the last 30 years — no boxed software here.

  • Proprietary 30-year refined system
  • Multi-source list merging
  • Duplicate elimination with precision matching
  • NCOA/CASS included on every job
Political Data

Congressional Appends

With our ever-changing United States Congress, we update our Congressional Senate and House of Representative names daily. As districts get redrawn, we update those too. We also offer Governor appends.

  • Daily Congressional name updates
  • Congressional District numbers
  • House of Representative names
  • Senator names (Senior and Junior) + Governor appends
Address Hygiene

Data Hygiene & Validation

We provide the USPS National Change of Address (NCOA) and CASS validation as a standalone service or as part of our full-service data management. We also convert, reformat, and clean up all kinds of file formats so you end up with a clean, mailable file.

  • USPS NCOA processing (48-month database)
  • CASS address standardization & certification
  • File format conversion and cleanup
  • Standalone or bundled with full-service management
