Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE:PBI), a global technology company that
provides innovative products and solutions to power commerce, will
display a range of global shipping, mailing, and customer
engagement solutions at the National Postal Forum (NPF), March
20-23 at the Opryland Hotel and Convention Center in Nashville,
Tenn., booth #116. These groundbreaking solutions are designed to
help businesses, from small and medium businesses to global
enterprises, integrate and optimize their physical and digital
processes to create greater efficiencies, improve operations, and
drive revenue.
“The world of commerce is highly complex and businesses need a
trusted partner to help them simplify their processes and solve
real business challenges they face every day,” said Mark Shearer,
EVP and president, Pitney Bowes Global SMB Solutions. “With almost
a century of leadership in the mailing and shipping industry,
Pitney Bowes is that reliable and trusted partner. Our unique
solutions deliver the accuracy and precision needed to drive
commerce, from location intelligence and marketing analytics to
direct mail and cross border shipping. We are craftsmen of
commerce.”
On Monday, March 21, at 10 a.m., Grant Miller, vice president,
global strategic product management for Pitney Bowes Document
Messaging Technologies, will present “Craftsmen of Commerce,”
highlighting the progress of the Pitney Bowes transformation and
outlining solutions that will be displayed at NPF, including two
new innovations: the Clarity Solutions suite and OneSortTM parcel
management system.
In addition, Mark Wright, executive vice president of Strategic
Growth Initiatives at Pitney Bowes, will address more than 1,000
attendees at the NPF Partnership Recognition Luncheon before
introducing keynote speaker and Olympic Gold Medalist Scott
Hamilton on Wednesday, March 23, at 12 noon.
Global shipping and parcel management solutions
At booth #116, Pitney Bowes will demonstrate a range of
solutions for global ecommerce companies and office shipping
environments, including the debut of the OneSortTM system, which
helps clients efficiently and cost effectively process parcels and
flats with remarkable simplicity.
The OneSortTM system, which is available as a certified accurate
dimensioner with or without a scale or as a highly integrated
parcel induction and management system, collects vital data in a
single touch, interacts with your business rules, and generates an
output to inform downstream processes. It is designed for shippers
looking to capitalize on cost savings achieved by capturing
accurate dimension, weight, address and barcode data and qualifying
for carrier discounts. The increase in online shopping by college
students, for example, has made OneSortTM an attractive solution to
help automate the sorting and delivery of parcels in university
mail rooms.
Pitney Bowes will also demonstrate its cross-border solutions
that drive Anywhere to EverywhereTM ecommerce including
localization of the consumer experience in more than 220 countries
and territories, payments processing, total cost visibility of
duties, taxes and shipping, fraud mitigation and compliance
logistics management. Pitney Bowes Global Trade Solutions offer
web-based technology for retailers and posts including product
classification, duty & tax calculations, compliance &
restrictions management and guaranteed DDP shipping.
In addition, Pitney Bowes will showcase its SendSuite parcel
shipping and receiving solutions, which help retailers execute
faster, streamline logistics processes including ship-to-store,
track inbound and outbound parcels, reduce costs, and provide
real-time supply chain visibility and reliable tracking.
For office shippers Pitney Bowes offers the Ship a Package
application, which turns the Connect+ mailing system into an
integrated sending station that prints USPS compliant shipping
labels and offers full reporting functions from the desktop to
better manage and control costs.
Integrated solutions for mailers of all sizes
In addition to a full range of integrated mailing solutions at
NPF, including the Epic Inserting System, the AcceleJet Printing
and Finishing System, Presort Services, the Relay
multi-communications suite, and the Connect+ series mailing system,
Pitney Bowes will showcase the recently introduced Clarity
Solutions suite.
Clarity is a new SaaS-based offering that leverages the physical
and digital technologies of the Industrial Internet to integrate
and organize data collected from sensors on production mail
machines to support real-time insight, predictive analytics and
prescriptive maintenance. Hosted on GE’s Predix platform, Clarity
represents the first commercially available solution generated by
Pitney Bowes’ collaboration with GE to bring the power of the
Industrial Internet to the production mail industry.
For high volume mailers, the AcceleJet printing and finishing
system, an innovative roll to cut-sheet printing solution, provides
a simple, cost-effective path to high-quality color inkjet at a
cost comparable to monochrome for print and mail service providers
who generate 4-million to 10-million transactional or direct-mail
printing impressions per month.
The Epic Inserting System, a high-speed multi-format inserting
solution with increased functionality to further simplify
changeovers, processes complex transactional mail applications with
demonstrated integrity and high yield to simplify capacity
planning, increase operational productivity, lower total cost of
ownership and improve return on investment.
Pitney Bowes’ full range of Presort Services process more than
15 billion pieces of mail annually through its national network of
more than 30 operating centers, including new centers in Chicago,
St. Louis and Portland, Ore.
The Pitney Bowes Return Mail Processing Solution helps
First-Class mailers reduce return mail and mitigate its impact on
the bottom line. Leveraging Pitney Bowes’ sorting technology,
returned mail pieces are scanned and the address information is
searched using proprietary databases to find the updated
address.
Pitney Bowes Parcel Mailing Solutions expand the number of mail
classifications for presort to include parcels (Parcel Select and
Parcel Select Lightweight, Bound Printed Matter Parcels and Flats,
Standard Class Parcels and Flats and Priority Mail). Our expertise
in processing mail allows us to utilize the same methods and
technologies to help clients obtain discounts on their growing
parcel volumes.
The Relay multi-channel communications suite is an integrated
solution offering designed specifically for small and medium
businesses to enhance their transactional communications (bills and
statements), while providing for client data privacy and meeting
growing regulatory requirements and complexity. At the heart of the
suite is the Relay communications hub, a cloud-based digital
document solution that helps businesses create more accurate and
impactful communications, direct in-house or off-site production,
and deliver communications through physical or digital channels,
including email, post to web, and digital archiving.
The Connect+ Series mailing system sets a new standard for
mailing system technology with low-cost color printing and web
connectivity. With the Connect+ Series, clients will continue to
benefit from the latest technology to optimize their mail while
increasing productivity and streamlining the communications
process.
Game-changing customer engagement solutions
Businesses need to address the current buying behavior
environment where customers seamlessly transit the web, physical
stores, and mobile apps sometimes without ever engaging anyone in
sales. Collectively, data from mobile, online or in-store
transactions plus sentiment expressed via social media provides a
wealth of new information gained from traditional credit card
transactions or loyalty programs, all of it "geotagged" for use in
a geospatial context.
Pitney Bowes’ location intelligence suite of software maps
geotagged information to determine which retail locations within a
business’ network of stores are engaging with their customers and
the sentiment that each is deriving, either positively, negatively
or neutrally. Pitney Bowes’ location intelligence can review these
sentiments within a certain drive time radius, using the Enterprise
Routing Software, to evaluate, qualitatively, how the business’
trade area might be impacted by sentiment values.
Also on display will be EngageOne Video, a first-of-a-kind
customer engagement solution that delivers interactive
communications designed specifically for each viewer. The
technology helps telecommunications companies explain data and
usage charges on billing statements; turns complicated insurance
policies into interactive educational tutorials; and empowers
financial service providers the ability to better understand and
communicate investment options to clients.
Each EngageOne Video acts as both a customer service and sales
and marketing resource, while empowering viewers to create their
own experiences through self-selection of topics and actions
relevant to that individual’s needs. Available around the clock for
the always-on customer, EngageOne Video is developed for the
individual consumer and can be accessed through any device they
choose.
