To achieve these aims, Algérie Poste has chosen to work with Bull – the European information systems architect to support the company in upgrading its information systems, and so successfully strengthen its policy of delivering ever more innovative solutions for its customers, with their constantly evolving requirements.

As one of Algérie Poste’s partners of choice, Bull has once again strengthened its position with the recent delivery of a highly-available hardware and software platform based on its NovaScale 7320 range of servers. This high-performance platform enables operations relating to the full range of Algérie Poste’s services to be processed uninterrupted, in real time.

With this new platform, Algérie Poste’s is able to offer new services to its customers, including, in particular: the possibility of opening a new CCP (postal check) account at a local post office, with no need for a preliminary application to the national postal order center; decentralization of CNEP (banking) operations, which are now available in all post offices; widespread computerization of all postal establishments with the aim of moving towards the development of an IPS (International Postal System) service, giving customers the possibility of tracking the movements and delivery of their mail via the Internet, as well as enabling the creation of a single, multipurpose kiosk.
