Jersey Post has been shortlisted for two awards at the Supply Chain Excellence Awards 2018, now in their 22nd year, and considered as the benchmark for supply chain best practice.
The company has been recognised for the development of an automated parcel management solution and shortlisted in the Customer Service and Support and Delivery Innovation categories at the 2018 finals.
The parcel management solution that was implemented by Jersey Post included the installation of an automated parcel sorting machine which links to handheld terminals and tracking software used by postal workers on their delivery rounds. This combination of equipment and software has helped the organisation to enhance its delivery operation and save money.
David McGrath, Head of Marketing at Jersey Post, said: “The driving factor for the parcel automation project was to be able to improve the whole supply chain of parcel delivery, but most importantly for the end user and this has been duly recognised by these awards. Being selected as a finalist against major UK brands is the perfect reward for the hard work and commitment of all those involved with the project.”
Jersey Post has been shortlisted against Heineken UK, Three and Co-op Insurance in the Customer Service and Support category, and against Superdry, Tata Steel FAMD, BT Supply Chain and Doddle in the Delivery Innovation category.
The winners will be announced at gala dinner in London on 6 November.
