Pitney Bowes to help modernise thousands of US post offices
Pitney Bowes has won a $32m deal with the US Postal Service to provide new technologies modernizing thousands of post offices across the United States. The company said the six-year contract providing support and maintenance for its network of postal meters also includes provision of systems and support to meet the US Joint Military Postal Command’s needs both nationally and internationally.
Pitney Bowes, the world’s largest mail technology and services company, said it will be standardizing its meter systems across the US for the Postal Service, using a “singly leading edge system”.
This will include an automatic electronic ordering and invoicing system, implemented nationwide to reduce manual processes.
“We are extremely pleased to be able to provide the U.S. Postal Service with precisely the automated technology it requires to meet the needs of today’s retail customer as well as the men and women of the military,” said Pat Brand, President, North American Mailing, Pitney Bowes.
