Unregistered Carriers on 9/18/2009 - 2003
I have to tell you about some modifications we have just made to Iteris' mail merge report/spreadsheet that make it, in my opinion, a killer product!
The idea behind the Mail Merge "report" is to create an on-demand spreadsheet product that has mailing information for all the carriers in your state. But what does that really mean? It could mean 1) all of the carriers in your state who registered last year, 2) all of the carriers that MCMIS shows as active, interstate carriers regardless of whether or not they registered last year or 3) all of the carriers who meet the UCR Universe criteria, whether or not they registered last year. Depending on your perspective - and, perhaps, your resources - any of those answers might be appropriate for the upcoming renewal mailing.
So what did we create? We created a spreadsheet that goes out and gets all of the "active interstate carriers" from MCMIS, regardless of their UCR Universe or 2009 registration status. Then we included columns for 1) whether or not the carrier registered under UCR in 2009 2) whether or not the carrier is in the UCR Universe and 3) whether or not the carrier has an email address.
This report seems like a must-have to me. It gives a state wide latitude and much flexibility as to how they will handle renewal mailing(s). In fact, I may ask Iteris to do some kind of Webinar or phone conference to show it to folks.
