D&B D-U-N-S Number can make it easier for your business associates
to do business with you. In fact, some customers demand that their suppliers
obtain a D&B D-U-N-S Number.
Used by the world's most influential standards-setting organizations,
the D-U-N-S Number is recognized, recommended or required by more than
50 global associations including the European Community, United Nations
and the US Federal Government.
D&B D-U-N-S Numbers are easy to obtain, simple to use and accepted
worldwide. A unique nine-digit D&B D-U-N-S Number can be assigned
to each of your business locations. Once you have your company's D&B
DUNS Number, it can:
- Act as a common classifier or identifier for invoices, requisitions,
payments, shipping, customs clearance and other business documentation
- Ease communications with your customers
- Link your operation to parent companies, headquarters locations,
branches or subsidiaries
D-U-N-S Numbers can help you:
- Consolidate, cleanse and eliminate duplicate records within your
databases
- Streamline the information held in disparate databases and improve
customer service by linking related customer accounts to support a
“one customer” view
- Identify risk exposure and highlight cross-selling opportunities
within the same corporate family group
- Integrate your internal systems by linking payables/receivables and
tracking business documentation to the business entity and location
level
- Link interrelated suppliers to enable you to leverage your corporate
buying power
- Integrate additional demographic information from D&B to provide
a profile of your customers, suppliers and prospects.
