Integrating small parcel processing into mail processing centers

How can existing mail-sorting facilities be augmented to also process mixed-mail consignments automatically?
We have an approach which is especially interesting for postal service providers that handle both mail and parcels. The most obvious advantage is that by rededicating areas in underutilized mail-sorting centers, the situation in overtaxed parcel centers can be alleviated. Overall benefits include a higher degree of flexibility, better resource utilization, and the creation of new business models.
