La présente invention porte sur un procédé et un système de traitement de paquets ou de colis qui assurent une manutention spéciale et qui avertissent une partie appropriée et lui indiquent si les paquets ou colis concernés ont été traités avec une manutention spéciale. Le système prépare à l'avance le personnel manutentionnaire et les avertit de l'arrivée de ces paquets. Des informations détaillées relatives aux paquets pour les envois du jour sont envoyées par courrier électronique par l'expéditeur au transporteur, qui trie ces informations et les met à disposition du personnel assurant la manutention dans des centres de traitement des paquets où la manutention spéciale sera vérifiée ou effectuée. La notification de l'état des paquets est envoyée à l'expéditeur par courrier électronique, par dispositif de recherche de personnes (pageur), ou par consignation sur un site web protégé. La résolution des exceptions est liée à l'accessibilité des informations fournie par le système. Le personnel chargé de la gestion du transporteur peut surveiller le fonctionnement du système aussi bien en temps réel que du point de vue de son historique.The present invention relates to a method and system for processing packages or packages which provide special handling and which notify an appropriate party and indicate to them whether the packages or packages concerned have been treated with special handling.
