PostalOne!
The PostalOne!® system offers a Web-based alternative to existing manual mailing processes with an electronic suite of services designed exclusively for business mailers. It features automated, streamlined electronic documentation used in the business mail acceptance process.
The system links a customer's mailing information electronically with US Postal Service acceptance, verification and payment systems, eliminating most of the paperwork. It also provides a wealth of online information Redi-Mail can use to manage their customers direct mail and fulfillment campaigns more efficiently.
Benefits include:
- Simplified mail acceptance
- System-generated electronic documentation and postage statements
- Improved tracking of mailing jobs and access to mailing information
- Enhanced account management capability
- Drop Shipment Scheduling via FAST
- Automated scheduling services for drop shipment mailings
Redi-Mail produces more than 5 million mail packages each week and the PostalOne! system enables Redi-Mail to more efficiently track and manage direct mail and specialty mail programs ensuring a quick and well-organized flow through Redi-Mail's facility. PostalOne! adheres to strict quality control and auditing procedures, utilizing the latest in technology innovations. PostalOne! also provides improved access to mailing information and job tracking as well as enables drop shipment scheduling through the FAST (Facility Access and Shipment Tracking) Web site.
All mail produced by Redi-Mail follows strict batch controls and is subjected to documented quality control procedures from industry standard methodologies such as Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Automated Manufacturing Practice Guide for Validation of Automated Systems (GAMP 4). Through the PostalOne! system, Redi-Mail is now authorized to send the US Postal Service detailed mailing data electronically for verification, which reduces paperwork, handling costs and storage needs.
In addition to the company’s upgrade to the PostalOne! system, Redi-Mail is undergoing preparations to utilize the USPS’ 4-State Customer Barcode, the next generation of barcode technology used to sort and track letters and flats that will be available later this year. Designed for use in high speed, automated mail sortation machines, the 4-State Customer Barcode allows the current PLANET Code® and POSTNET™ barcode information to be combined into a single barcode with expanded tracking capability. Redi-Mail is also pursuing certification for the USPS’ Mail Preparation Total Quality Management (MPTQM) program. Designed by industry mailers to help businesses prepare letter mailings that meet or exceed US Postal Service processing quality standards, the program is based upon three internationally recognized quality methodologies, ISO 9000, the Malcolm Baldridge Performance Excellence criteria and Total Quality Management, creating a new mailing industry benchmark for customer service and product quality.
NCOA Link
National Change of Address (NCOA Link), an excellent data cleansing tool, compares your mailing list to more than 160 million address changes. When a postal customer files a permanent change of address with their local post office, the move is added to NCOA Link, where change of address information is kept for 18 months. When a name and address on your mailing list matches a name and “old” address on NCOA Link, you will automatically receive the new address.
In addition to CASS certifying your mailing list, NCOA Link can help reduce the cost of maintaining a list, reduce the cost of mailing, increase the number of pieces that reach their intended destination, and reduce the time it takes for your mail to be delivered. In most cases, NCOA Link is the most cost effective way to obtain change of address information.
Deceased Suppression Processing
Minimizing insensitive situations caused by sending mail to deceased individuals is a marketing best practice. Redi-Mail’s Deceased Suppression Processing will reduce the number of deceased individuals you mail to, providing cost savings while minimizing any unnecessary embarrassment.
Our Deceased Suppression File is one of the industries largest and most accurate, with 55 million names, comprised from a variety of public and proprietary sources. Redi-Mail offers additional powerful features such as generating reports for processing, merge/purge accuracy and pattern recognition techniques that identify and suppress records that match the file.

LACS Processing
Many communities across the country have changed from rural route box numbers to city style addresses. Locatable Address Conversion System (LACS) processing is a service that converts these old, invalid addresses on your database to the new and correct addresses that exist on the LACS file.
DSF Processing
The Delivery Sequence File (DSF) is a complete address file of every valid delivery point in the U.S. DSF helps you qualify for postal discounts by standardizing addresses and assigning ZIP+4 and Carrier Route codes. Records that do not match DSF have a high probability of being undeliverable.
Postal Presort
Postal presort features include bar coding, Zip+4, data append and Presort Accuracy Validation and Evaluation (PAVE).
