Case Study: SUSI saves 2,666 hours with Autoaddress and Eircodes

SUSI saves 2,666 hours with Autoaddress

Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI), Ireland's national authority for student grants, processes thousands of applications annually and relied on accurate address data to provide timely financial support. Their challenge was a time-intensive manual process of verifying applicant addresses and calculating distances to colleges, which was prone to data-entry errors. To address this, they implemented the Autoaddress service.

By integrating Autoaddress with Eircodes and Google Maps, SUSI automated the address capture and distance calculation process. The Autoaddress auto-complete API ensured accurate address entry, and the system then automatically determined each applicant's distance from their college. This solution saved SUSI 2,666 hours of manual work in six months, removed data-entry errors, increased automation, and provided a better service to students.
