La Poste, the French national postal services group, has announced an increase of nearly 50 per cent in its net profit for 2005, to 557m euros, for a 3.5 per cent increase in turnover, to 19.3bn euros. This positive performance comes on the back of an improvement in the group’s operating margin, which increased from 1.7 per cent in 2003 to 3.9 per cent in 2005. The group is facing the challenge of the complete liberalisation of the postal services market in 2009. Some 65 per cent of its turnover is already generated on markets open to competition, and 15 per cent of it is generated abroad.

The French post office, La Poste, is set to announce a 49 per cent rise in its net profits for 2005, to 557m euros, having been expecting just over 400m euros. An operating margin of 3.6 per cent is forecast (up from 2.8 per cent in 2004), broadly in line with the 3.5 per cent predicted in December.

French national post office La Poste has selected the business intelligence (BI) solution DTV of local BI and market watch company DoubleTrade to detect and automate invitations to tender management, it was reported on April 19, 2006. So far, this process was performed manually by La Poste’s dealers or support personnel, the person in charge of invitations to tender management Nabil Kherbache, said. La Poste decided to integrated an automation solution as the coming full mail market liberalisation in 2009 requires a process optimisation at the company, Kherbache added.
