Ordnance Survey Retail Case Study

Situation

An organisation in the retail sector deliver luxury specialised shopping experiences on an international scale and have been our client for a few years.

With a high volume of consumers purchasing goods and services online and in physical stores globally, they need robust, reliable data to ensure their address data is accurate and up-to-date.

Their goal is to grow by tapping into new markets, maintain partner relationships and improve the overall efficiency of their organisation.

The firm wanted full visibility of data and required enhanced information to send contractors to accurate units so they can fulfil deliveries, reaching the correct addresses on time.

Solution

Hopewiser provided the client with our Ordnance Survey data file which included a bespoke collection of trustworthy datasets to help meet their requirements.

It includes UPRN (Unique Property Reference Number) data which is essential for bringing property and address information together and contains building information from residential to commercial.

We also provided AddressBase Premium (ABP) data and our Address Lookup software. ABP data provides up-to-date addresses, cross references and other information relating to an address at all stages of its existence.

It included information regarding provisional (proposed planning developments), and historic (demolished properties or property where the address has changed) address data.

Address Lookup enabled the client to seamlessly integrate address search capabilities into their online systems alongside ABP data and also their customers with the ability to quickly and accurately find addresses.

Result

ABP data helped the client identify patterns within their database allowing them to shape their operations, improve customer engagement and enabled them to streamline delivery processes.

They obtained high volumes of accurate information relating to addresses and its classifications which lead to up-to-date and accurate co-ordinates, helping them to improve their planning and decision-making.

Thanks to Hopewiser’s Ordnance Survey data, this firm were gained a comprehensive view of their address data, helping them understand their and remain a highly competitive retailer.
