Enhance Business Data
Need to analyse trends in your customers? Need SIC codes for official documentation? Need contact information added to an existing business list? Our append services can help you.
Higher match rates
We use our own software Unity to perform all of our data enhancement and matching. Unity is used by many other data companies, but as we wrote the software we know how to drive it best and achieve the best matching/data appending results.
One step beyond
We also use other tools we have created to supplement our data appending, for example AutoSIC is our own tool for adding SIC codes to data just based on the company name.
If you were to scan down a list of company names, you would be able to tell what many of them do just from the name, for example with ‘Franks Butchers’ and ‘The Butchers Arms’, our software would know that one of these is a butcher and the other is a pub.
Some of the elements we can add:
o SIC code and description
o Our own SIC Plus code and description
o Employee band
o Turnover band
o Telephone/Fax Numbers
o Senior Contacts
o Company links
o VAT numbers
o Companies House registrations numbers
