Deutsche Post to digitise corporate post
Deutsche Post AG is planning to offer to its corporate customers digitisation of their mail as of January 2007, the company said on November 27, 2006.
According to the announcement, Deutsche Post will open digitisation stations in Frankfurt, Berlin, Hamburg, Hanover, Essen, Cologne, Stuttgart and Munich in January 2007. In December 2007, it will start operating such stations also in Nuremberg and Leipzig.
At the digitisation stations the corporate mail will be scanned and the data will be entered into the data processing system of the company. In most of the cases, the scans will be available in the data processing system on the morning of the day on which the mail is received at the stations, Deutsche Post (www.deutschepost.de) spokesman, Stefan Hess, said.
The company decided to launch the new service due to the higher requirements of its corporate customers, according to the project leader for Frankfurt, Peter Scheller.
