Imagitas, a New England Company, Signs 10-year Contract with US Postal Service

Business Wire
Imagitas Inc. and the United States Postal Service (USPS) have
completed a 10-year renewal of their successful MoverSource
Alliance, a partnership built around a set of products that helps
approximately 44 million U.S. residents with the change of address
process each year.
Pat Donahoe, Postmaster General of the USPS, commented on the
contract saying, “We are very pleased with the success of
MoverSource and expect it to continue to provide excellent service
value to our moving customers for many years to come.”
The MoverSource program includes The Mover’s Guide, MoversGuide
Online, and The Welcome Kit. The Mover’s Guide program combines the
official USPS Change of Address form with information kits that
provide helpful savings for moving-related products and services.
MoversGuide Online helps people process a Change of Address and
access moving information and coupons online at usps.com. The
Welcome Kit, mailed to the mover’s new home, contains an official
confirmation of mail forwarding along with local information such
as how to register to vote, the names of local officials, as well
as national and local savings offers.
“The recently signed MoverSource contract between USPS and
Imagitas is a perfect example of the type of public-private
partnership that creates jobs and raises revenue while requiring
little, if any, government investment,” said Congressman Stephen
Lynch, former Chairman of Congressional Subcommittee on Federal
Workforce, Postal Service, and the District of Columbia during the
111th Congress. “I commend both parties on their commitment to
saving costs and providing superior customer service by maintaining
the MoverSource program.”
“We are pleased with the opportunity this agreement gives us to
create jobs and grow our business in Massachusetts,” said Ted
Stimpson, CEO of Imagitas. “This new beginning for our company will
stimulate exciting new innovations and opportunities. Moving is
never easy, but the MoverSource products ease the burden by
providing cost savings when you need it most.”
Prior to the MoverSource Alliance, the USPS spent millions of
dollars executing the Change of Address program. Under the
MoverSource agreement direct costs of providing the Change of
Address program are absorbed by the Alliance and revenues from
advertising are shared between the USPS and Imagitas. Since
inception of the MoverSource Alliance, the USPS has received more
than $300 million in revenue.
Imagitas is hosting a celebratory event on January 19th at the
State Room in downtown Boston at 6 pm. The media is welcome to
attend the remarks portion of the program at approximately 6:15
pm.
