Abstract

A reply card processing (RCP) service was developed at CEDAR to demonstrate how the United States Postal Service could deliver business and courtesy reply cards to clients electronically instead of physically. The electronic delivery of the more than one billion cards that the USPS processes in a year was to expedite the order fulfilment cycle for participating customers, resulting in cost savings and accelerated response times. CEDAR developed the necessary subsystems which included a postal image management system. As well as providing the networking applications for ensuring the seamless transfer of card images to the postal clients, the task involved advancing the state-of-the-art in forms processing to read the card images and to deliver the information in a form ready for database integration.
