These are the key goals of UKChanges>online – and to keep up our end of the bargain, we’ve added a couple more screening options to further improve your results.

Removing the details of goneaways is essential to direct marketing effectiveness. Continuing to try to communicate with customers or prospects who have moved house is a waste of time, effort and budget that ultimately diminishes returns and damages your brand.

The SubtrAction file is a new goneaway suppression service from Transactis that gathers goneaway data from the company’s pool of transactional data contributors.

The file contains over 14 million records – more than 4 million of which are unique to this dataset. For more details click here.

But that’s not all.

We’ve also added the TNT Premier File as a selectable option on our mail sortation service. So now, regardless of your preferred postal operator, you can gain access to a postal discount scheme and be rewarded for the accuracy, completeness and sortation of your address records.

Data management specialist UKChanges has launched a new web-based data supply service that Steven Day, director of the company, believes will revolutionise the market.

The new UKChanges>online:Supply service combines map-driven selections and real-time counts to save the user valuable time and reduce the effort involved in building prospect lists. By simplifying the process and removing the need to for users to wait on a 'holding page' whilst the system counts the records, UKChanges believes it has removed two of the remaining barriers to broader market acceptance of online data supply services.

In addition to providing traditional pick-lists, the unique map-driven geographic selections of the new service overlay administrative and selected boundaries on to a UK outline, speeding and easing the process of making selections by allowing the user to simply click on the desired area of the map. The number of households or individuals within the selected areas are instantly counted and collated in a list that provides the user with an immediate total of the records available.

During the second stage of selections, where the user refines their lists by applying additional conditions such as age-ranges, ACORN profiles, wealth indicators, etc, the real-time counting engine provides immediate counts of the amended selections in each area, reflecting changes to the user's criteria as they are applied and ensuring that the user is always aware of the exact number of records selected.

Commenting on the launch, Steven Day, Director, UKChanges, said: "In designing UKChanges>online:Supply, our aim was to empower data planners and data buyers of all levels, providing them with the tools and information they require to quickly and effectively establish their own selections and build successful prospect lists."

Day continued: "We have looked at the market and there is nothing quite like this available. The limited number of established online data supply services cannot match the speed, flexibility and usability of our system. The user interface for our service is excellent and initial feedback from existing customers has been very positive."

As the second element in the company’s three module web-based data management system, UKChanges>online, Supply builds on the February release of the Clean service to extend the company’s offer in to a new market.

An established leader in online data cleansing, UKChanges has applied the same successful functional design principles to the development of UKChanges>online:Supply; creating a system that is fast, flexible and easy-to-use, with a strong, clear interface and a range of time and labour saving devices that put the user in control of their data requirements.

UKChanges, the data cleansing specialists, are pleased to announce the launch of a new partnership with Capscan, one of the leading suppliers of UK domestic and international addressing software.

Under the new agreement, UKChanges has provided a branded version of its established web-based data cleaning tool, Direct Connect Online, as an upgrade to the Capscan Integrity service that was launched last year.

Capscan Integrity customers will now have access to an extended range of data cleaning services, including goneaway and mortality suppressions, business and consumer data tagging and extraction, telephone numbering and preference service screens. Delivered via a flexible user interface and easy-to-follow Job Wizard, Capscan Integrity is available 24/7 from any internet-enabled PC, providing users with complete control over their data cleaning projects.

Commenting on the announcement, Steven Day, director, UKChanges, said: “Capscan is a major name in the address management industry and a long-standing partner to UKChanges. We are obviously delighted that it has chosen UKChanges to provide the new Integrity solution.”

He continued: “The ease of use and flexibility of the system mean that it is ideally suited to the varied base of customers that currently utilise the Capscan product suite. The new Integrity service complements Capscan’s address processing offer by allowing users to further enhance and validate the currency of contact details.”
