5. Parcels – Automation or Retail Data Capture PointTechnologyTimelineBarrier Start the Clock: Induction Acceptance scans EVS manifest POS Scan at plant, BMC or DU – retail scan 8125 (truck manifest) scan “Scan 5” EVS usage expanded 150 dock scanners deployed – limited BMCs IM Parcel barcode widely used Mailer participation: willingness / enough sources to implement required barcodes and systems Non-POS sites? Full deployment of SV scanners Interim Scans: Inter-facility Intra-facility Transit DU arrival Intelligent Mail Container barcode scan Intelligent Mail Parcel barcode scan at BMC APPS, SPBS scans IMD 0 DU dock scanners (could use carrier IMD) Exit Scan: Delivery “DelCon” scan (or any special services scan) Intelligent barcodes IMD IMD fully deployed-SeptSize of label in relation to smaller packages

6. Forwards / Returns Data Capture PointTechnologyTimelineBarrier Start the Clock: Induction Forwarding/Return scans Original acceptance data: Seamless Acceptance EVS Redirection data: PARS (letters) CFS (letters / flats) Carrier event scan (parcels) First Class/Periodicals- available now CFS – May 1, 2007 PARS – Sept. 2007 Customer adoption of new endorsement & field training  Data can be captured on letters, flats and parcels ●After identification, tracked same as non-UAA mail
