SPi Global Partners with TNT Shore
TNT Shore boosts companies’ processing efficiency through data processing.
July 26, 2010, Now, every company or organisation handling large volumes of documents can take advantage of the services of TNT Shore, a new company that uses advanced software technologies to process data quickly and cost-effectively while maintaining a high level of quality. TNT Shore is the offspring of the partnership between TNT Post and global market leader SPi Global, the latter headquartered in the Philippines. Various types of handwritten and printed documents, such as invoices, postage paid reply cards from magazines, forms and envelopes, can be digitised.
TNT Shore is striving to become the European market leader in large-scale data processing for logistics-based enterprises, such as postal companies and publishers. Companies can reduce their logistics and administration costs by having their documents of almost any nature digitised to the right degree. This also enables them to respond more quickly to customer enquiries for the delivery of products and services. TNT Post itself will be one of the companies working with TNT Shore, using its services to decipher addresses on letters and cards that are difficult for the automatic sorters to read. A power company will soon also be having TNT Shore digitally process the meter readings sent in by its customers on reply cards.
SPi Global’s President & CEO, Maulik Parekh said, “This partnership is very important for SPi because we can learn from each other how to perfect the technology and, harnessing our combined strengths, open up a whole new market.”
Harry Koorstra, a member of TNT’s Board of Management had this to say: “With this innovative step we are showing once again our ability to stay ahead of developments on the postal market. Together with SPi Global Solutions, we now have a solid solution in TNT Shore to deliver high-quality data processing. This solution is open to any European company that wants to contract out its large volumes and have these processed quickly and for a very attractive price.”
