Postal/package handling solutions

AAI has provided critical simulation modeling engineering solutions to postal and package handling/courier organizations since 1995. The US Postal Service (USPS) is among AAI's recognized clients, as are many of the key equipment and systems suppliers to the USPS and postal systems around the world. Simulation modeling solutions that AAI has provided have helped these organizations analyze and confidently select the most efficient design alternative or process improvement concept—from individual equipment components, such as automated sortation machines, to the layout and operation of an entire processing and distribution center.

Businesses and consumers depend on the delivery of documents and packages to the right place at the right time. The process of providing this global service is extremely complex and involves highly automated and expensive equipment, intricate processing and sorting schemes and many people. In response to changing markets, demand and technology evolution, postal services and major package delivery services periodically need to assess proposed changes in system equipment or processes. The ability to confidently predict the impact of these changes on the system and customer service is of paramount importance, which is why for years most of these organizations have used and relied upon simulation modeling solutions and the expertise of AAI to help them put this technology to use.
