Bankruptcy records, accessible to the public through PACER, are a valuable source of information for various purposes. PACER is the electronic system that allows users to view case and docket information from federal courts, including bankruptcy courts. While the format differs between courts, the core data remains consistent. The raw PACER data is then processed by our custom-built BEBdata system, which standardizes, segments, and enhances the information to create a user-friendly database.
How We Make it Useful:
1. Data Standardization:
We take the raw data from PACER and run it through custom programs to standardize the information, transforming it into a usable database format.
2. Address Enhancement:
We use USPS CASS software to verify and correct address information, ensuring accurate delivery details.
3. National Change of Address (NCOA) Integration:
The CASS-certified data is further processed against the NCOA file, providing the most up-to-date delivery information available.
4. Custom Database System:
Finally, the enhanced data is integrated into our custom-built database system. This allows for flexible segmentation, categorization, and querying of the information.
Important Notes:
The data is available for various vertical markets and is not used to assess creditworthiness. When used for credit solicitation marketing, the BK Data can only be used for Invitation To Apply (ITA) purposes
