April 24, 2002—Pitney Bowes Management Services (PBMS), a provider of integrated mail and document management solutions, is offering a new secure mail handling service, PBMS Secure Mail, available in three tiers: Secure, Advanced, and Premium.
This new service was developed in response to last year’s terrorist events and anthrax scares. The service, says Pitney Bowes, makes it easier for customers to choose the level of security that is appropriate for their business, and offers new options, such as off-site mail opening and electronic imaging and delivery.
For customers who decide that the Secure (standard) level of service best meets their needs, PBMS Secure Mail integrates messenger, carrier and even taxi delivery service through a centralized screening process. Security benefits for the customer includes the elimination of unauthorized individuals making deliveries in work areas, identification of packages approved and released for delivery with a special “inspected” stamp, and utilization of PBMS Arrival to digitally capture signatures and provide precise record of activity. In all levels of secured mail services, PBMS Secure Mail provides only skilled workers who have passed four levels of security clearance before hiring.
These features are also included in the Advanced Secure Mail offering, which also enables companies to receive X-ray technology to scan all carrier, courier, USPS mail, and parcels on-site.
For customers who need the highest level of secure mail solutions, PBMS’ Premium security package offers the option of having mail and packages opened and inspected on the premises or at an off-site facility. With this level of service, the mail can be physically delivered or imaged and then distributed electronically through e-mail or Web posting. Additional options include cleansing the mail using a steam autoclave.
