Postal and Delivery Services
Author: Michael A. Crew
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461302536
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
When Postmaster General Creswell penned his concern about the impact 2 of electronic diversion on his postal organization, the year was 1872. General Creswell, it turned out, fretted unnecessarily. Facsimile did not achieve commercial viability until roughly a century after his tenure as Postmaster General and today that technology is fading rapidly from the communication scene. Moreover, it never appears to have significantly affected physical letter volumes. However, if General Creswell were leading a major postal organization today, he likely would feel threatened by the potential of Internet communication to cause electronic diversion of physical mail. Should recent technology developments cause the oft-predicted (but so far incorrect) inflection point that would mark the beginning of declining mail volumes. the implications from a management standpoint will be profound. The relatively fixed nature of postal costs suggest that volume declines must be offset though improved productivity, reduced cost of inputs, revenue from new products that share common costs, or reduced level of universal service.

The Politics of Postal Transformation
Author: Robert Malcolm Campbell
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 9780773523685
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 524
Book Description
The postal system is a multi-billion dollar industry and one of the world's largest employers. Until recently it has been controlled by government-owned monopolies designed to provide universal postal service. However, in response to technological and international competition as well as public disenchantment with subsidies and inefficiencies, governments have embraced a range of new strategies. The Politics of Postal Transformation investigates the most important policy innovations that have been instituted to match domestic political expectations with international and technological realities. Robert Campbell's comparative analysis provides recommendations for policy-makers around the world and lays the foundation for informed speculation about the possible future domination of the system by a select group of postal behemoths. Book jacket.

Why Canada Needs Postal Banking
Author: John Anderson
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1039188443
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
In almost half the communities in small town and rural Canada that have a post office, there are no bank or credit union branches; Only about fifty-four bank and credit union branches exist in the over 615 First Nations communities in Canada; A growing number of urban areas in Canada have no accessible banks or credit unions Why Canada Needs Postal Banking offers a plethora of information about the banking industry that will shock ordinary Canadians. In explaining the banking system that many of us take for granted, the author reveals a deep, and largely unrecognized, gap between the services offered in densely populated, urban spaces and those available in small towns, rural and remote regions, and Indigenous communities. As a solution to this dearth in services, John Anderson proposes a logical alternative to big, private-sector banks: the post office. Basing his argument on historical fact, international experience, and the exorbitant cost of traditional banking services, the author builds a logical and compelling case for reestablishing banking services at Canada Post. Composed of a collection of research papers, interviews, and opinion pieces, Why Canada Needs Postal Banking provides convincing and well-organized data to support the reintroduction of postal service banking in Canada. Readers can absorb survey results that document citizen, municipality, and union support for this strategy. Tables and graphics provide easy access for those who want to assess the statistical facts and figures at a glance. Written in clear, succinct, and transparent language, Why Canada Needs Postal Banking engages the reader while delivering surprising information. In a landscape where challenges seem overwhelming much of the time, this book proposes a solution that, while not without its difficulties, is implementable. It delivers answers and alternatives that support business and individuals’ needs in different parts of the economy that have been, for too long and too often, overlooked.
