IBM InfoSphere QualityStage Module for U.S. Address Certification provides United States Postal Service-certified Cycle N address verification and enhancement for US addresses. This module meets all of the requirements of the United States Postal Service (USPS) to allow you to qualify for postage discounts and ensures the completeness, consistency, and validity of critical US address information in corporate databases.
This version is compatible with IBM InfoSphere Information Server, Version 9.1.
- This product may not be exported or installed outside the U.S.
- IBM anticipates the U.S. Postal Service will mandate a change to the USPS CASS specification from the current Cycle N to Cycle O on August 1, 2021. IBM QualityStage Module For U.S. Address Certification (USAC) is USPS CASS Cycle N certified. IBM plans to secure a USPS CASS Cycle O certified replacement to our current QS-USAC and to have such replacement available in advance of the anticipated August 1, 2021 Cycle O deadline. Due to the changes mandated by the USPS, once the Cycle O replacement product is available, modifications to any existing QualityStage USAC jobs will be required. Please share the name, role and email address of the responsible parties who use or manage QS-USAC directly with IBM's offering manager, Mary O'Shea, [email protected], Subject Line: "QS-USAC Please Keep Us Informed" so we can send you periodic email information on these pending changes. Please note: There will be no more QS-USAC monthly data updates available after July 2021.
- IBM QualityStage Module for U.S. Address Certification version 8.5 ended support on Sept 30, 2019. Please see the download document for U.S Address Certification version 8.6 for currently available parts.
