The opportunity to design a new postcode system for a country doesn't come along very often. Ireland is the last country in the OECD to introduce postcodes. The challenges range from ensuring rapid adoption to minimising the effects of postcode discrimination.
We waited years for postcodes to be introduced in Ireland, and then we get eircodes! It took us a little while at Autoaddress to get our heads around calling them eircodes rather than postcodes, but now it all seems very natural.
Ireland will have one of the best postcode systems in the world when it launches in Spring 2015, says Eircode, the new Irish company that will manage the groundbreaking coding system. Eircode is also the name given to the unique location codes that will be allocated to every address in the country – 2.2m of them.

We're delighted to confirm that we are members of the winning Consortium to design, develop and rollout a unique postcode for every address in Ireland. The Consortium comprises Capita Ireland, Autoaddress and BearingPoint.
