Pošta Slovenije and FarEye partner to elevate parcel and letter deliveries with advanced routing capabilities

In Europe, the inefficiencies of the logistics industry cost companies billions of dollars annually and impact operations across the continent. Yet with advanced route optimization, postal companies can save up to 20% in costs, improve efficiency, and contribute to sustainability goals by reducing carbon emissions.

Recognizing these issues and opportunities, Pošta Slovenije, a leading provider of postal and logistics services, is set to transform its logistics and delivery operations through a strategic partnership with FarEye, a global leader in last-mile technology.This collaboration addresses several pressing challenges that Pošta Slovenije has been facing in its efforts to streamline and enhance its delivery operations.

To overcome these challenges, FarEye has proposed a dynamic solution designed to revamp Pošta Slovenije’s delivery framework. Key elements of the solution include:

• Advanced Route Planning and Optimization: The solution will provide advanced planning and optimization tools for managing routes efficiently, supporting seamless transitions between networks, and adapting to changes in delivery attributes throughout the shipment process. It will also account for address segmentation, where each delivery post covers multiple areas, ensuring accurate and effective route calculations.
• Enhanced Pickup and Last-Mile Delivery Management:The solution provides tools for managing pickups and deliveries, improving overall operational efficiency.
• Integration of a Control Tower: This feature will offer real-time oversight of logistics operations, including the ability to handle exceptions and manage communications effectively.
• Mobile App Enhancement: FarEye will improve the functionality of Pošta Slovenije’s mobile app, reducing fieldwork errors and integrating new delivery statuses.
• Improved Sorting and Preparation Processes: The solution will streamline sorting and preparation tasks, supporting better handling and billing processes.
• Comprehensive Analytics Tools: The platform includes KPI dashboards and analytics tools to monitor performance and gain actionable insights.

By integrating these advanced technologies, FarEye aims to optimize Pošta Slovenije’s operations across various shipment types and support multiple networks with distinct delivery requirements. The partnership is poised to enhance overall customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.

“This collaboration with FarEye represents a significant step forward in our efforts to further modernize and optimize our logistics and delivery processes,” said Slavko Ovčina, CIO, IT Director at Pošta Slovenije. “We are excited to leverage FarEye’s AI-Powered last-mile technology to address our operational challenges and improve our service delivery.”

Kushal Nahata, CEO and Co-founder of FarEye, commented, “Advanced route optimization gives postal companies the opportunity to save up to 20% in costs and improve efficiency. It also helps them contribute to sustainability goals by reducing carbon emissions. This supports the EU’s target of a 55% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and will help enable the EU to become the first climate-neutral continent by 2050, setting new standards for delivery excellence in the region.”

FarEye’s solution is designed to seamlessly integrate with Pošta Slovenije’s existing systems, ensuring a smooth transition and immediate impact on operational performance. The solution will be used across shipment types - letter items and smaller packages, parcel shipments, logistics shipments, express shipments and for additional activities like emptying mailboxes and signing documents.
