Industry Intelligence Center · Updated: November 2025 · Reviewed by: SICCODE Research Team

Precision-targeted marketing, sales acceleration, and reliable analytics all start with the foundation: a verified, custom-tailored business database. At SICCODE, we engineer each custom database to match your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP), compliance requirements, and campaign objectives—delivering audit-ready accuracy, coverage, and actionable segmentation. Discover how our process transforms diverse data sources into reliable, high-converting lead and account lists for your team.

Whether you need to power account-based marketing, enrich your CRM with verified firmographics, or fuel multichannel campaigns, SICCODE’s bespoke database solutions are built for maximum ROI, regulatory trust, and enterprise scalability. 

Discovery: Mapping Your Ideal Dataset

  • Use case alignment: We consult on your outreach, enrichment, analytics, or market entry objectives to anchor the build to measurable results.
  • Target model: Define precise inclusion filters—select by SIC/NAICS codes, revenue tiers, employment bands, geography (nationwide, regional, state, city, ZIP/MSA).
  • Depth of contacts: Specify decision-maker, management, or departmental titles and seniority to deliver lists tailored for your GTM, ABM, or channel play.

Compilation & Normalization

  • Aggregation from verified sources: Federal, state, commercial, and proprietary feeds with ongoing coverage reviews.
  • Normalization & deduplication: Harmonize all records to a consistent field structure, resolve entity variations, and remove duplicates—guaranteeing clean, standardized exports every time.
  • Persistent field mapping: Custom schema matching for fast CRM/BI imports and long-term usability.
  • For details, see our Data Sources & Verification Process.

Verification & Classification

  1. Entity verification: Each business undergoes legal entity checks, active status confirmation, and website/domain validation so you only receive real, operating organizations.
  2. Industry classification: Companies are assigned both primary and secondary SIC/NAICS codes—validated with narrative sector descriptions for advanced segmentation and compliance. This dual-coding approach increases accuracy and reporting reliability for complex B2B targeting.
  3. Contact validation: When included, contact details are confirmed via deliverability testing (email SMTP checks, role/title logic, and phone validation) to maximize connect rates and compliance.

Compliance & Documentation

Every SICCODE custom database is engineered for regulatory assurance and transparent audits. Our deliverables incorporate:

  • Data lineage & update tracking: Timestamped field updates and full sourcing documentation, ready for compliance review or internal audit.
  • Privacy & suppression handling: CAN-SPAM, CASL, and GDPR/PECR logic, including opt-out flags and suppression list integration for lawful B2B outreach and enrichment.
  • Further methodology details provided at Our Classification Methodology.

Delivery Options for Any Scale

  • One-time export: Receive clean, structured CSV or Parquet datasets via secure download or SFTP for instant upload to your CRM or analytics stack.
  • Recurring refresh: Schedule monthly or quarterly updates so your team campaigns with the most current intelligence and remains in regulatory alignment.
  • Enterprise licensing: For large-scale or multi-year needs, access bulk datasets and robust API feeds (custom schemas, automated updates, and usage reporting included). See Enterprise Data Licensing – National SIC & NAICS Datasets.
