1 Postal EstateTM strategies & solutions Delivering savings

2 Begin with the end in mind...

3 reduce Postal EstateTMcosts & increase profitability On average, we save our clients around 25% of their existing Postal Estate TM spend. For some of our larger clients that can be genuine seven figure savings from their Postal Estate budgets, going straight onto their bottom line! Since the opening of the UK postal market, competition has brought new opportunities for businesses. These opportunities can mean better pricing or bigger discounts from the existing Royal Mail service or the new mail providers. Like deregulation in the Telecoms and Energy sectors, some businesses have seized the opportunity to drive down their costs and are already enjoying the financial benefits of new strategies and solutions. Even if you have already taken advantage of the open market, we can help you unlock further savings. We ll show you where there is room for improvement in the way you manage customer communications, contact data management, print, mail production and postage solutions. Altus are also able to offer strategies and solutions related to the physical distribution of letters, packets, parcels and courier services. We ll provide clear recommendations that will identify and deliver the Postal Estate model that s best for your business. Altus is completely independent and is the UK s leading Postal Estate management company. After completing our audit, we operate a value based fee approach meaning we only charge you out of the savings we deliver. And that s where we come in. At Altus, we have the knowledge and experience to guide you through the whole process from audit to implementation, through evaluation and exploration of further opportunities. We ll help you understand the benefits that are available to you and educate you on your own Postal Estate. It is estimated that businesses are losing in excess of 500 million in savings every year by inefficient use of their Postal Estate or by not exploiting the options available in the evolving postal market. Make sure you contact us today for your free initial audit. We know we can save you money! Gary Sweeney Managing Director, Altus At Altus, our ultimate aim is to ensure that your company can reduce the costs associated with your Postal Estate TM by identifying opportunities to release real savings across your business.

4 The best vision is insight...

5 there s no substitute for experience Our team has over 150 years experience in the Postal Estate TM industry, in market opening and deregulation. Altus is a completely independent company with no preferred supplier arrangements in place with any of the postal industry providers. We pride ourselves in the fact that we analyse our clients business and their prospective suppliers on an open and fair basis. We never presume! We re driven by data and in-depth auditing. That s why we are the UK s leading Postal Estate management company. What we offer is decades of experience in the Postal Estate industry. Members of our team have held the most senior management positions within this industry and several have worked with Royal Mail and fully understand what can and can t be done. For instance, in mail, we don t automatically recommend a move away from Royal Mail to Downstream Access with the newer providers. We have also advised companies, who have moved to new providers, where they can drive out further savings from their existing contracts. We know how important your Postal Estate infrastructure is to your business. Our people understand it in all its guises including managing customer communications, contact data management, print, mail production and postage solutions. We re also able to offer strategies and solutions related to the physical distribution of letters, packets, parcels and courier services. We use our expertise and experience to design the best solution for your business. We have a unique combination of skills that are at your disposal from day one. And, day one starts with us understanding your business. Only by truly understanding your Postal Estate infrastructure are we able to provide a made-to-measure solution for your business. When scoping a company s full Postal Estate it pays to get it right first time. We know we can save you money. And remember, no savings no fee! The things you re doing well will take care of themselves. We want to find the things you should be doing better.

6 There s no good idea that can t be improved on...

7 we ll help you exploit new opportunities The biggest saving we made for one client was in an area that they hadn t asked us to consider! Sometimes you re so close to the action that you can get caught up in the play. You can miss out on the bigger picture. What seems right and obvious can actually mask the reality of what needs to be addressed. Inefficiencies at the back-end tend to have been created at the front-end that s why we deal with the causes rather than the symptoms! And because of our unique blend of skills we are able to identify and authenticate the real opportunities for your business and recommend the most suitable solutions. You know your business better than we ever could. By working together we can develop the strategies and solutions that really improve your business and your bottom line. The complexity and increasing number of applications in your Postal Estate can be confusing. Royal Mail and the new providers are quite rightly working very hard to offer you their products and solutions. We take one step back. Our independence allows us to assess and score all the products and services on offer from everyone that is involved. We take the hard work and analysis out of it for you. We let you get on with your business while we go about ours. We ll make sure you become more efficient and deliver the best model to drive out the savings from your Postal Estate. Let Altus find those obvious and, more importantly, less than obvious solutions to better efficiencies and dramatic cost savings. We know we can save you money!
