📋 Tender Overview
The Vienna Stadtwerke subsidiary Wienit will in future deliver mail for the communication and print service provider Vendo. With this cooperation, the Wienit dares for the first time beyond the established business model. Currently, more than three million pieces of posts per year are delivered by electric load moped annually, such as the Vienna annual card. The cooperation agreement was this week by Monika Unterholzner, deputy. General Director Wiener Stadtwerke, Wienit Managing Director Eva Schwarzl and Vendo Managing Director Rainer Bollmann signed in Vienna. Started in 2020 with five electrical load mopeds, 20 Viennait vehicles are currently cruising through the federal capital.
They apply inexpensive, nationwide and, above all, emission-free shipments from the Vienna Stadtwerke Group-for example, annual tickets from the Viennese lines. Monika Unterholzner, deputy general director of the Wiener Stadtwerke group: Climate-hunting needs cooperation. With a future fit City logistics, we reduce pollutant emissions in the city and, in this area-in the sense of climate protection-help to make Vienna even greener. Transport with e-transporters corresponds to the high environmental standards of the city of Vienna. It is very gratifying that with Vendo we were able to win a well-positioned external partner for our eco-post-delivery.
Ecological and cost -efficient delivery of postpieces
For the first time, a company that has not belonged to the Stadtwerke group is now using the ecological and cost-efficient logistics solution of the Wienit. With the communication and print service provider Vendo, a medium-sized, family-run company with locations in Vienna, Vocklabruck and Germany, a cooperation agreement was concluded that provides for the delivery of Vendo programs within the Wienit delivery network. With the cooperation, Wienit increases efficiency and output in the logistics area: Vendo will deliver finished post pieces to Wienit, which are then delivered by Wienit. This can significantly increase the delivery density of the routes, which ultimately brings shorter distances to the recipients. Shorter distances minimize the time and path expenditure per letter and thus also ensure cost minimization. Eva Schwarzl, Managing Director of Wienit: With cooperations like this, we put our services on synergies and continue to expand our services as a business partner of the Wiener Stadtwerke Group. Our DELIVENY & OUTPUT Services network printing and digitization and rapidly, inexpensive and emission -free for the group. Rainer Bollmann, Managing Director of Vendo, sees it similarly: The cooperation with Wienit is a clear win-win situation. Our customers benefit from the environmentally friendly, inexpensive, punctual and traceable delivery of our letters, while the Wienit can use its existing delivery network even better.
Own mail delivery concession
In order to be able to deliver item pieces, Wienit has acquired a letter delivery concession according to the provisions of the Postmarkt Act. This has only been possible in Austria since the liberalization of the post market in early 2011. Wienit is therefore also a full postal service with an official letter delivery concession, which provides services according to the provisions of the Postmarkt Act. It continues to be delivered with purely electrically operated vehicles. Another expansion of the Wienit delivery service is already in implementation.
