Sri Lanka's Department of Posts has made a significant achievement by getting shortlisted for an award at the World Mail Awards 2011 ceremony to be held in Brussels, Belgium on May 17. It has been shortlisted for an award in the "Retail Project" category in respect of its entry for 'inhouse development.'
Post Master General M K B Dissanayake said this is the most outstanding achievement made by the Postal Service during its 200 year history by getting shortlisted for a coveted international prize. A computer software based on the E-pay project started with a minimum capital created by the Departments officers attached to the Information Technology division was the department's entry to the Retail Project Category he said.
This shortlisting is ample proof that the Sri Lanka Posts has utilized information technology to compete with and be par with Global Postal Services. The final judging of award winners will take place in Brussels on May 17 and Sri Lanka Posts has been invited by the organisers to attend the awards ceremony held at the Conrad Hotel in Brussels on that day.
