Description

Electronic Letter Routing (ELR) is a system used by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to electronically route letters and packages. ELR utilizes barcodes, scanning, and other technologies to automate the routing process, reducing labor costs and speeding up delivery. Using ELR, mail is scanned each time it passes through an ELRenabled USPS facility. This scan records the location and time of the scan, and the data is used to determine the most efficient route for the mail.
 
The USPS began rolling out ELR in the late 1990s, and it has become an integral part of the postal service’s operations. It is used to route both domestic and international mail, and it has greatly increased the efficiency and accuracy of the USPS’s delivery process. ELR has also allowed the USPS to offer tracking services, which provide customers with up-to-date information about the status of their mail.
 
ELR has been a major success for the USPS, and it has helped the organization to reduce costs and increase customer satisfaction. By making the delivery process faster and more accurate, ELR has enabled the USPS to remain competitive in the ever-changing landscape of the mailing industry.
