Intelligent Mail Barcode Services Provide Business Growth Opportunities
DURHAM, N.C., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- BOWE BELL + HOWELL (BBH), a
leading provider of high-performance document management solutions and
services, will highlight at this year's GRAPH EXPO NetSort(TM), a new
sorting software platform that supports full-service use of the Intelligent
Mail(R) Barcode (IMB). BBH will demonstrate NetSort's Web-enabled
capabilities in tandem with the recently released Criterion APEX(TM) sorter
in booth 1253, McCormick Center, Chicago, Oct. 26 to Oct. 29.
"NetSort allows mailers to take advantage of discounts that will be
available through full-service use of the IMB," said Mike Swift, president,
BBH Postal and Sorting group. "We've combined the best features from our
WinSort(R) and MaxiSORT(TM) sorting software platforms and added item-level
tracking and a scalable client-server architecture to provide a complete
web-based solution."
IMB-specific functionality includes the ability to manage unique
mailpiece IDs for the required 45 days across multiple sorters and sites;
manage uniqueness of trays and containers; and create and submit electronic
mailing reports (Mail.dat(R) and Mail.XML(TM)).
Other NetSort functionality includes the use of templates for quick job
setups, the ability to set security levels for individual users and the use
of remote diagnostics to resolve issues quickly.
Extensive USPS(R) discounts can also be earned with NetSort's ability
to merge mail from multiple-site operations. This can be a significant
savings: early results show as much as a 25 percent improvement in
five-digit qualification levels when sharing mail. NetSort also minimizes
the probability of errors by using item-level tracking and centralized data
for mail moved between sites. Additional value can be achieved through
address cleansing with optional integration of Mail Manager 2010. This
option provides the mailer with a greater assurance of USPS compliance,
improved efficiency, higher deliverability rates and savings.
"The Intelligent Mail initiative from the USPS will significantly
change the mail processing landscape," said George Varghese, NetSort
product manager. "Our NetSort solution provides unprecedented sorting,
tracking and reporting functionality that will enable users to maximize
benefits from these changes."
NetSort will be available in October 2008.
