USPS MTAC Workgroup #120 Optimization of Preparation and Entry.

 At the conclusion of Workgroup #114, several issues were identified that required additional collaboration between the USPS and the mailing industry. This workgroup will focus on the issues of communicating Critical Entry Times (CETs) to the mailing industry, exploring solutions for mailers requesting specific In-Home delivery days, and the effect of seasonality on service and performance measurement. Impact on Other Issues or Procedures This new initiative may affect and require changes to current business processes.

Some of the impacted organizations or functional areas of the USPS are identified as, but not limited to:

1. Business Mail Acceptance and verification processes that incorporate manual, automated and performance-based verification models.

2. Mailing Standards and Preparation current regulation assessment and development of new requirements.

3. USPS Mail Processing Operations current preparation to processing assessment, business process integrity, data collection/management, and exception reporting.

4. USPS Intelligent Mail and Engineering assessment and alignment of current and future processing and visibility capabilities.

5. Mail Service Providers & Mail Owners acceptance, post-acceptance evaluation of mail preparation and additional data requirements for mail makeup support information.

6. Facility Access and Shipment Tracking System (FAST)

7. Rapid Information Bulletin Board System (RIBBS) 

Desired Results The workgroup will focus on the following:

1. Define the business needs of mailers who use Standard Mail to target messaging around In-Home delivery dates.

2. Outline the entry processes that maximize requested In-Home delivery date compliance.

3. Identify any sources of cost required to meet In-home delivery date compliance.

4. Identify feedback mechanisms to deliver feedback on mail entry and delivery for Standard mailings with requested In-Home delivery dates. Explore feedback approaches that leverage intelligent mail barcodes, electronic documentation, and performance-based verification.

5. Identify the optimum communication and education processes for sharing requested In-Home delivery results.

6. Communicate CET definition and requirements.

7. Delineate the relationship of CET and service standards.

8. Outline a process to communicate CET changes externally and the lead time required for these communications to be effective.

9. Identify the effects of seasonality on mail prep, entry, predictable service performance and reporting. Additional Information: Defining the actual CET values is not within the scope of the workgroup. This is an intrinsic function of the USPS.

Enhance Communication via USPS Confirm™ Service

 Enhance Communication via USPS^® CONFIRM^TM Service

By Jeffery Peoples, CEO & Founder, Window Book, Inc.

One of the services available for participating in U.S. Postal Intelligent Mail^® Full Service is OneCode^TM Confirm to track your mailings.  Mailers who are currently using PLANET Code^® for encoding tracking information for Confirm^® service can now take advantage of this new service which is supported by Intelligent Mail®.  This means you will be including the OneCode^TM Confirm barcode imbedded in the Intelligent Mail® barcode instead of posting an additional PLANET barcode on your mail pieces.  OneCode^TM Confirm service enables mailers to follow the progress of their jobs from start to delivery and track exactly when your mail was dropped off, processed, and delivered.  This information will help business mailers to better manage their operation, reduce marketing expenses, improve customer service and call center scheduling.

OneCode^TM Confirm service is designed to add value for the mailers and their customers by enhancing visibility in the USPS mail stream.  This service provides you with the data which you can use to track mail electronically, and it will give you information in advance about the path and delivery of outbound mail and inbound business reply mail; destination OneCode^TM Confirm will transmit an electronic notification to the mailers when mail pieces are inducted at the U.S. Postal Service® facility; origin Confirm lets mailers know when their customers have mailed back business reply mail such as checks and orders.

In today's world where mail owners and mail providers need to better manage in-house resources to lower operational expenses, OneCode^TM Confirm service will help you to continue to reduce costs as you implement new Postal Service tools to maintain a competitive edge.  Mailers will be able to gain more control over their mailings by being able to access near real-time tracking information of where their mail is and when it will be delivered.  They can benefit from major ROI savings on marketing campaigns by tracking all the important and time-sensitive mailings, enhance customer service by monitoring the progress of mailings, and improve cash management by tracking incoming checks and statements. 

In order to fully benefit from OneCode^TM Confirm and USPS automation discounts, you need to make sure that your software is compatible with the USPS Intelligent Mail® system, and are able to produce certified barcodes which supports PostalOne!^®.  Depending on class of mail your software should be able to print 3600's, 3602's, 8125's, 3152-A's, and the files that describe the contents of each statement.  Ideally, it should be able to automatically populate Electronic Mailing Data (EMD) from Mail.dat^® files and flexible enough to participate with additional real-time tracking programs.  By using USPS OneCode^TM Confirm, you will be able to participate in Intelligent Mail, which will no longer be an option but a necessity in the future to benefit from postage discounts.  Start inspecting your current operation now since implementing new programs requires time, money, and training.   

USPS DMM Revision: Optional Container Preparation for First-Class Mail Items

DMM Revision: Optional Container Preparation for First-Class Mail Items

On November 6, 2008, the Postal Service^TM is revising 705.8.0 of Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual (DMM^®) to add optional standards for mailers preparing First-Class Mail^® letter-size and flat-size mailings on pallets, or in other USPS^®-approved containers. These standards will be effective in May 2009, concurrent with the imple­mentation of the new prices for mailing services. The May 2009 effective date provides ample time for USPS and mailer systems to prepare and support these changes.

In the interim, we encourage mailers to containerize First-Class Mail items according to these guidelines when they have sufficient volume for a presort destination, rather than placing trays on working ("convenience") pallets. Des­tination pallets can bypass initial tray distribution opera­tions, allowing significant efficiencies in both processing and transportation, and will enhance our ability to meet ser­vice expectations. Mailers need not show the new contain­erization in their presort documentation until systems are ready in May 2009.

These optional standards may form the basis for local customer/supplier agreements to align and formalize exist­ing mailer and USPS practices for First-Class Mail items. Beginning in May 2009, mailers using the Intelligent Mail^® full-service option may also use these standards to containerize mailings when preparing pallets or other USPS-approved containers bearing Intelligent Mail con­tainer placards.

We will include First-Class Mail container preparation in the spring 2009 update to PostalOne!^®, concurrent with Mail.dat^® release 09-1 and Mail.XML version 5.0. Mail­ers transmitting documentation electronically may include First-Class Mail container data beginning with these updates.

DMM Revision: Clarification - First-Class Mail Parcel Definition

Effective November 6, 2008, the Postal Service^TM is revising 101.6.0 and 401.2.0 of Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual (DMM^®) to clarify the classification of First-Class Mail^® parcels. Mailpieces are classified as parcels, and require parcel prices, when they exceed any one of the maximum dimensions for a flat; or, when they are within the dimensions of a flat but are rigid, nonrectangular in shape, or not uniformly thick. In addition, any First-Class Mail item that is rigid and over
1/4-inch thick is classified as a parcel.

Shape-based pricing was introduced by the Postal Service in 2007. It is critical that we classify First-Class Mail parcels appropriately at acceptance to ensure consistent and accurate prices are charged. Also, correct classifica­tion enables the availability of certain extra services, such as Delivery Confirmation^TM and Signature Confirmation^TM, which are available only for parcels, and all Priority Mail^® items.

In order for a First-Class Mail item to be eligible for Sig­nature Confirmation or Delivery Confirmation service, it must be eligible to be classified as a parcel. Mailers may not simply choose to pay First-Class Mail parcel prices to add Delivery Confirmation or Signature Confirmation service.

We will incorporate these revisions into the November update of the online DMM on Postal Explorer^® at http://pe.usps.com/ and into the next printed edition of the DMM.

Publication 205 Revision: Clarification of the Requirement to Submit Two Types of Labels for eVS Label Certification

Effective November 6, 2008, Publication 205, Electronic Verification System Business and Technical Guide, is revised to clarify the current requirement to submit two types of barcoded labels for eVS label certification.

Currently, the mailers are required to print two types of barcoded labels: Confirmation Services labels and eVS barcode labels without any Extra Services (using Service Type Code 56). For mailers who will use Confirmation Services barcodes exclusively, we are eliminating the requirement to submit barcoded labels without Extra Services. Barcodes without Extra Services use Service Type Code 56 and are commonly referred to as "passive" or "passive enroute" barcodes.

The most current version of the eVS application and the Mailer ID application can be found at http://ribbs.usps.gov/. From the "RIBBS" website, click eVS and then click eVS File Library. Or, you may request this infor­mation from eVS@usps.gov.

[Add a new third sentence and revise the last two sentences of 1-3.3.1 as follows:]

The eVS applicant is required to submit eVS barcode labels for Confirmation Services (using the appropriate Service Type Code for the service and class being used) corresponding to the Package Identification Codes in the manifest files. eVS cus­tomers who will mail eVS parcels without Confirma­tion Services must submit the second label type, the eVS barcode labels without any Extra Service (using Service Type Code 56).

New Publications: Publication 2013, Vision 2013, and Publication 2013-A, Vision 2013 Overview

Effective October 2008, the Postal Service^TM issued new Publication 2013, Vision 2013, and Publication 2013-A (brochure), Vision 2013 Overview. Both publica­tions can be accessed online at http://www.usps.com/strategicplanning/vision2013.htm, and printed copies can be ordered from the Material Distribution Center as explained under "Ordering Information." Each district and area will receive an initial distribution of 50 copies each of Publica­tion 2013-A.

Publication 2013 presents the Postal Service plan for building our business and sustaining a strong, viable Postal Service for the next 5 fiscal years, ending in 2013. Publica­tion 2013-A is a trifold that summarizes the detailed strate­gies in Publication 2013.

The Postal Service will continue to strengthen core operations and services, balancing an immediate and urgent need to reduce costs with a continued commitment to essential strategies such as Intelligent Mail^®. The Postal Service will be guided by one principle: we exist to serve our customers. This vision is a commitment to ensur­ing a vital Postal Service for future generations and rests on three major strategies:

• Focus on what matters most to customers. Our vision is guided by one - that we exist to serve our customers. Our plan is built around satisfying the needs of tomorrow's customers and creating new solutions that meet the requirements of a rapidly changing market.
• Leverage our strengths. We will build from our strengths - an unrivaled national network, sophisti­cated information systems, and dedicated employ­ees in every community. There is enormous opportunity to leverage these assets to create a new customer value and generate profitable new revenue.
• Embrace change. We must embrace change to ensure the Postal Service is relevant and responsive to customer needs. We will use the Internet more extensively to build our business. We will take a lead­ership role in adopting environmentally sustainable business practices. And we will collaborate to drive change, accelerate innovation, and create new value.

Change the Service Type in Intelligent Mail Barcode for May 2009

It's great to use the intelligent Mail barcode "IMb" on your letters and flats now (before basic and full service are active it May 2009) but remember that the service types are changing and you will have to update them.

It's Time to Get Going with Intelligent Mail

 

With the time it takes to get through all the steps, it makes a lot of sense to get going with Intelligent Mail now.

If you haven't already done so, please:

1) get your mailer id(s).

2) get your PostalOne! User name and password

3) Start testing with PostalOne! eDocs.

It will takes some time to get through the whole process and you might as well start now, so you are not in line when you really need it in 2009 for Intelligent Mil Full Service or basic.

Moving On

Greetings,
To all of my former Window Book customers, friends, and colleagues, I would like to invite you all over to visit the new home for my Postal Affairs blog here:

The blog will contain much of the same USPS and mailing industry information WBI customers have come to rely on, and will be available for all to access.  Thank you to WBI CEO Jeffery Peoples for making this transition a smooth and amicable one, and for giving me the opportunity here to remain connected with everyone. 

I have many wonderful memories of the time I spent with my WBI family, and I look forward to keeping the lines of communication open for all.

Best wishes,
Lisa
