The Challenge of Delivering the Right Postal Solutions
People still want mail. Even with the steep curve in technology options, we expect the Post to arrive on time. We want postage costs to remain low. And we want the post office to do more.
Government postal services are shifting to meet these demands. They are cutting costs, expanding services such as E-Post and electronic bill pay, and streamlining processes—all with limited public funds.
Information technology helps with this change. IT can modernize service models, achieving significant efficiencies. But business issues and technical challenges of postal services, systems, and processes are complex. Governments need an ally they can trust to guide them through this next phase.
