More than 4,200 Irish postmen to be equipped with wireless track-and-trace gadgets

The Irish postal service has been given a jump start into the 21st century as more than 4,200 postmen will be equipped with a paperless track-and-trace system to ensure accurate delivery. In addition, customers will be able to check online and see if their letters or parcels have reached recipients.

Each postman – whether driving a van, cycling a bike or travelling on foot – will be equipped with a handheld wireless scanner that will ensure electronic proof of delivery (ePOD).

This will reduce the manual administration involved in filling in manual proof of delivery cards.

The new system has gone live after a deal was signed between An Post and wireless technology specialist Zetes.

It will also future-proof An Post for future developments in mobile technology as well as the long overdue arrival of postcodes in Ireland.

Each postman will be able to use their wireless device to confirm, track and trace deliveries in real-time.
