Increase the Value of Your Mailing Solutions
The U.S. Postal Service (USPS®) organizes its mail to best optimize carrier efficiency
as well as decrease its costs and provide discount incentives to you. Software solutions
can prove their compliance to these regulations through certification programs.
The address certification is called CASS ™ (USPS Certification Process for ZIP + 4
Matching Software), and the sorting certification is called PAVE™ (Program Measuring
Presort Accuracy)**.
While using a CASS - and PAVE-certified solution helps ensure
that you achieve the highest level of savings, remember that not all CASS and PAVE
software is created equal. Year after year, customers of SAP BusinessObjects
Postalsoft software have derived significant value from its CASS solution that returns
the most accurate results, while its PAVE solution is certified at the gold level – the
highest such standard possible from the USPS.
The software provides even more
value to high-volume mailers, allowing you to select from several add-on options for
additional cost savings. Below is a list of these value-adds and their benefits provided
