Colombia's postal service updates systems
National (Adpostal), the Colombian state postal service, has announced that it has begun the modernization of its management, operating and financial systems with the installation of two software programs provided by the Universal Postal Union. These are the International Postal System and the Financial System, which will permit an improvement in services, reduce delivery times and monitoring of deliveries. Similar systems are being used in over 50 countries worldwide. In Adpostal’s case, the full implementation of the total software systems will take about six months. An expert from the Universal Postal Union will be in Colombia for several weeks, leading a team which will be collecting information on how to adapt the software and hardware to local needs.
