Corporate Hierarchy - Family Tree

We identify Corporate Family trees when companies share their hierarchy on a social media page, corporate website, or public filing - like the SEC. We assign entity types to company records that have a unique social media page but the website is either shared or redirected to the Parent company. We also monitor news feeds for Mergers and Acquisitions in our Alerts file.

Below are the entity_types and definitions within the Corporate Family Tree:

  • Ultimate Parent: The Ultimate Parent distinction is given to entities that have a Parent with a Subsidiary in their corporate family tree.
  • Parent: These entities own a Subsidiary company or have Affiliate company records assigned to them.
  • Subsidiary: Subsidiaries are legally unique entities owned by a Parent. Subsidiaries usually have a unique name or website.
  • Affiliate:  Affiliates are not legally unique entities that share a website with their Parent. Affiliates can be a regional office, an acquired company, or a recognized brand within a company.

Accessing the Tree through the App

Within the RampedUp Battlecard, select the Corporate Family tab to view the hierarchy. To download the Family Tree, click the List Building button which will direct the user to the Company List Building tab with a search showing "Ultimate Parent" pre-populated.

From here the user can adjust the criteria, review the hierarchy, or choose to download the results. Each company entity chosen for download will deduct one credit.

Accessing the Tree through API

Like Contact and Company search, The Corporate Family API call will consume 0 (zero) credits to “scan” for preliminary results. The purpose of this API is to allow the user to understand the size and scope of the family tree. The customer must already know the Company RUID to call the API with the below endpoints:

"companyRuId": "string",

"includeAffiliates": true

The output of Corporate Family API shows the corporate hierarchy and limited firmographic details. The results will not display identifiable data, but we will provide the RUIDs needed to make a call to the Full Company Search API. This will provide full company details:
