The United States Postal Service saves USD 1,000,000 a day with the Postal Address Redirection System (PARS). With this intelligent system from Siemens, letters to addresses that are no longer current, for example, due to a move, are sent quickly and with no detours to the new address. This reduces unnecessary transport and delivery attempts. And it also noticeably improves the company’s ecobalance while reducing the amount of energy used for transportation and logistics.
