A Melissa Case Study
CXT Software, a Phoenix-based provider of courier and dispatch management software, faced a time-critical challenge: they needed to verify incoming addresses and pinpoint exact delivery locations in real time to avoid mis-routes and wasted resources. To meet this need, CXT turned to Melissa (Melissa Data) and its address and geocoding APIs—Address Object and GeoCoder Object—for a flexible, customizable verification and geocoding solution.
Melissa’s Address Object provided instant address validation at order entry and GeoCoder Object linked ZIP+4 to geographic data and appended latitude/longitude to the sixth decimal place. By integrating both into its X Dispatch product from day one, CXT eliminated bad-address dispatches, enabled precise driver assignment by proximity, and improved overall dispatch efficiency and routing accuracy.
