Stop Wasting Time (and Money): Why It’s Time to Upgrade Your Mailing Process!

When was the last time you evaluated how much time and money your business spends on mailing? If your team is still manually processing mail, you may be losing hours of productivity and incurring hidden costs that eat into your bottom line. Investing in a modern mailing system isn’t just an upgrade—it’s a necessity for businesses that want to operate efficiently.

Manual postage stamping, sorting, and handling may seem manageable, but over time, it leads to:

  • Lost productivity as employees spend valuable time on repetitive tasks.

How the “One Big, Beautiful Bill” Will Shape the AEC Industry

In July 2025, the landmark One Big, Beautiful Bill Act was signed into law—a sweeping package that combines major tax cuts for businesses and workers, along with deep changes to healthcare, energy, and infrastructure funding. For the AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) sector, the act brings both challenges and opportunities.

What the Bill Means for AEC Firms

  • Tax Incentives for Capital Investment: Enhanced depreciation rules and R&D write-offs mean companies can invest more in infrastructure and innovation .
  • Infrastructure & Energy Reforms: The act shifts some energy subsidies (e.g., for solar, wind) and challenges the sector to adapt to evolving policy landscapes .
  • State & Local Tax (SALT) Relief: Higher caps on SALT deductions benefit developers in high-tax states—but may expire after five years
  • Focus on Cost & Design Efficiency: With tighter budgets due to spending reductions in social programs, public infrastructure projects will demand smarter, better-designed proposals.
