According to the State Post Bureau, this year is the 13th peak season for postal express delivery since 2010. According to the monitoring data of the State Post Bureau, from November 1 to 11, the national postal express delivery enterprises handled a total of 4.272 billion express parcels, and the average daily handling capacity was 1.3 times of the daily business volume. Among them, 552 million express parcels were handled on November 11th, which was 1.8 times of the daily business volume.
At present, except for some areas affected by the epidemic, the whole network is generally stable. The postal express industry actively responded, fully guaranteed the smooth operation of the peak season, and strived to create a safe peak season, a smooth peak season and a warm peak season. It is expected that the mail express generated in the peak season of "double 11" will be basically delivered before November 20th.
This year’s "double 11" express business season mainly presents the following characteristics. First, the industry is running more smoothly. The e-commerce platform’s "good start" on November 1st further diverted the peak of double 11’s business volume that day, and the "double peak" of business became a normal state of the e-commerce platform "double 11", which effectively relieved the pressure of the postal express delivery enterprises’ sharp increase in the peak season. Second, the coordination of express e-commerce is closer. Through the extensive use of big data and other technologies, the e-commerce platform further strengthens the analysis and judgment, pre-stores a large number of pre-sold goods to the storage sites and outlets of postal express delivery enterprises, and postal express delivery enterprises allocate various resources such as transportation capacity and personnel in a targeted manner, making the delivery speed of goods faster and more convenient, and the timely delivery rate of 48 hours and the punctual delivery rate of 72 hours have improved. Third, the application of science and technology is deeper. More than 900 sets of automatic processing equipment have been newly invested in the whole industry, and technologies such as "outlet housekeeper", smart security check and address fence have become more mature. Postal express delivery enterprises have vigorously promoted the use of contactless delivery modes such as smart express boxes, and the overall operational efficiency has continued to improve. Fourth, epidemic prevention measures and security are more powerful. The State Post Bureau guides local postal administrations to strengthen supervision and inspection of enterprises’ implementation of epidemic prevention and control requirements, strengthen prevention and control of key links, key places and personnel, and prevent the epidemic from spreading through delivery channels. At the same time,With the support of local party committees and governments, the number of postal express distribution centers and outlets affected by the epidemic has decreased significantly compared with the end of October, and the microcirculation at the end has become smoother.
