1 1 Transitioning to Intelligent Mail ® Barcodes April 2012 From POSTNET ™ … …To IMb ™

2 2 Agenda  Important Dates  What is Intelligent Mail?  Intelligent Mail Barcodes  Implementing Intelligent Mail Barcodes  Reply Mail  Resources

3 3  March 2, 2012 Proposal –POSTNET™ barcode discontinuation –Transition to the IMb™ will be required for automation price eligibility  Timeline - January 2013 Requirements –Retirement of POSTNET barcode IMb required for automation letters and flats IMb required for QBRM and PRM letters Eliminate Postnet barcode on parcels unless printed in the address block eVS parcels – Postnet barcode eliminated completely Comments received on or before April 2, 2012 Important Dates

4 4 Agenda  Important Dates  What is Intelligent Mail? -Definition -Classes of Mail -Options & Requirements -Benefits  Intelligent Mail Barcodes  Implementing Intelligent Mail Barcodes  Reply Mail  Resources

5 5 Defined  Technology that supports products, services and associated features  Increases tracking and visibility across the mail supply chain  Provides consistent and reliable service  A technology platform made possible by the “suite” of Intelligent Mail barcodes: –Intelligent Mail Barcode – letters and flats –Intelligent Mail Tray Barcode – trays/sacks –Intelligent Mail Container Barcode – pallets, gaylords, APCs (All Purpose Containers), rolling stock What is Intelligent Mail ® ?

6 6 Classes of Mail  IMb ™ services apply to the following classes of mail and processing categories: –First-Class Mail ® letters and flats –Standard Mail ® letters and flats –Periodicals letters and flats –Bound Printed Matter flats –Reply Mail What is Intelligent Mail ® ?

7 7 IMb Service Options – Basic and Full-Service * Only when containerization is required What is Intelligent Mail ® ?

8 8  Apply Intelligent Mail barcodes on letter and flat mailpieces  ALL fields must be populated and must contain numeric values: –Barcode ID –Service Type ID –Mailer ID –Serial Number –Routing Code What is Intelligent Mail ® ? Barcode ID Ex: 00 for No OEL Service Type ID Ex: 300 for First-Class Mail ® Mailer ID Ex: 123456 USPS ® assigned Routing Code Ex: 6449 Amberview Ct., Memphis, TN 38141834649 Serial Number Ex: 000000000 Intelligent Mail Basic Option Requirements

9 9 Intelligent Mail barcode Intelligent Mail tray barcode Intelligent Mail container barcode Intelligent Mail Full-Service Option Requirements  Unique Intelligent Mail® barcodes on mailpieces, trays, sacks and containers  Electronic mailing Information which identifies mail owner and mail preparer must be submitted using: Mail.dat®, Postal Wizard,Mail.XML®  FAST® (Facilities Access & Shipment Tracking) to schedule drop ship appointments (except mailings entered at a DDU) What is Intelligent Mail ® ?

10 10 Benefits of the Basic Option  Ensures compliance with future plans  Enables an easier upgrade to Full-Service option  Integrates value-added service in one barcode –Increases available marketing space on mailpieces –Offers OneCode ACS ® at less cost than Traditional ACS ® (Participant Code/Keyline) What is Intelligent Mail®?

11 11 Agenda  Important Dates  What is Intelligent Mail?  Intelligent Mail Barcodes –Comparison of IMb and POSTNET Barcodes –IMb Specifications –Data Fields in the IMb –Key Barcode Checklist –Barcode Placement  Implementing Intelligent Mail Barcodes  Reply Mail  Resources

12 12 Comparison of IMb and POSTNET Barcodes  The IM barcode is similar to earlier Postal barcodes. –Shares data fields with POSTNET (=Routing Code) and PLANET Code (=Tracking Code) barcodes –Similar footprint on the mailpiece, but with MUCH greater data capacity  The IM barcode is a vehicle for enabling services (on LETTERS and FLATS). –Allows Mail Processing Equipment to automatically route mailpieces –Allows for tracking of mailpieces through the mailstream Data available through the IMb Tracing® Program (IMbTracing @ usps.gov) –Allows mailers to qualify for automation prices Intelligent Mail Barcodes (IMb™)

13 13 Comparison of IMb and POSTNET Barcodes  The POSTNET barcode routes the mailpiece during postal processing.  The PLANET Code provides tracking information and is used in conjunction with the POSTNET barcode to provide mailers with: –The date, time and location that outgoing IMb Tracing ® mail was inducted at a Postal facility –The date, time, location and sort operation at which a mailpiece was processed at a Postal facility  IMb Tracing ® allows mailers to uniquely identify and receive mail processing data for outgoing mailings and incoming reply mailpieces.  The IMb replaces both the POSTNET barcode and the PLANET Code. Intelligent Mail Barcodes (IMb™)

14 14 Comparison of IMb and POSTNET Barcodes  POSTNET barcode and PLANET Code –Image-based fonts –Do not require encoding algorithms POSTNET Example: 53594 = 53594 Visually determine the information….(74210)  Intelligent Mail barcode requires an encoding algorithm –Bar-for-bar image –Can not be determined visually, requires conversion with algorithms INTELLIGENT MAIL BARCODE EXAMPLE: 0070012345620080000198765432101 DADTATFFAFFTTTAFTAFDADFDDDDDTAFFDAAFFDAFDDFFTADFTFTTFDAAFTFTADTTT Intelligent Mail Barcodes (IMb™)
