ENHANCED POSTAL DATA MODELING FRAMEWORK
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- accessing postal data which describes characteristics of a mail sortation process;
mapping the postal data to production management data which describes characteristics of a model production management process in an initial state and which is capable of being processed by a production management application;
inputting the production management data for processing by the production management application to produce forecasted production management data which predicts characteristics of the model production management process in a subsequent state;
mapping the forecasted production management data to forecasted postal data which predicts characteristics of the mail sortation process; and
providing at least a portion of the forecasted postal data to a user.

Abstract
An enhanced postal data modeling framework, in which postal data which describes characteristics of a mail sortation process is accessed, and the postal data is mapped to production management data which describes characteristics of a model production management process in an initial state and which is capable of being processed by a production management application. The production management data is input for processing by the production management application to produce forecasted production management data which predicts characteristics of the model production management process in a subsequent state, the forecasted production management data is modeled to forecasted postal data which predicts characteristics of the mail sortation process, and at least a portion of the forecasted postal data is provided to a user.

19. A system comprising:
-
one or more computers; and a computer-readable medium coupled to the one or more computers having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising; accessing postal data which describes characteristics of a mail sortation process; mapping the postal data to production management data which describes characteristics of a model production management process in the initial state and which is capable of being processed by a production management application; inputting the production management data for processing by the production management application to produce forecasted production management data which predicts characteristics of the model production management process in a subsequent state; mapping the forecasted production management data to forecasted postal data which predicts characteristics of the mail sortation process; and providing a least a portion of the forecasted postal data to a user.
