How about the address quality in your organization?
If you mail marketing information to customers and prospects, ships goods or send invoices by postal mail, you certainly have faced already one or more of the following common physical address quality issues.
Addresses are captured and stored in different formats, mixed with other data and there are no conforming standards on how to capture addresses. Especially, when you are doing business internationally, you quickly get in trouble with different writing systems and address formats if there is no corporate address data quality solution installed.
You need a process established to check address data at point of entry to make sure, addresses are complete, consistent and correct right from the beginning. And it is also important, to regularly check your address data to make sure that it is still up-to-date.
Address validation is the correction process where properly fielded address data is compared against reference tables provided by postal organizations or other data providers in order to ensure they are fit for purpose.
