Sharing Shared Services — part of thePostalPEOPLE strategy

Employee Resource Management Vice PresidentDebbie Jackson recently talked to Human Resource man-agers from around the country in Greensboro, NC, abouthow the move to Shared Services will impact their districts.

The new Shared Services Center in Greensboro is partof the overall PostalPEOPLE strategy — the ultimate in em-ployee self-service — making it quick, easy and convenientto access personal information 24/7. Employees in 28 dis-tricts use the center to get help with retirement and separa-tion, compensation and benefit changes as well asexecutive and administrative schedule selection.

By Sept. 1, all 80 districts will be on the new system.

BSN reorganizes to better servecustomers

The Postal Service’sBusiness Service Net-work (BSN) — the teamthat supports our largestmailers — is reorganiz-ing to better serve ourcustomers.

National accounts,previously supported bydistrict BSN staff, willnow be served by areaBSN representatives.

District staff will continue to serve Premier accounts. Cus-tomer Service Vice President Susan Plonkey says the re-alignment positions the BSN as a true service partner tocustomers with renewed focus on problem identificationand resolution.

A new BSN National Service Improvement Team is alsobeing created, with both area and HQ staff to be in place inearly April. The team will concentrate on industry trendsand issues resolution.

Customers have been told of the change through theMailers Technical Advisory Committee, individual lettersand the USPS Memo to Mailers magazine.

A new do for Wanda

When Owenton, KY, Rural Car-rier Wanda New decided to gether first real haircut in more than40 years and donate her ponytailto Locks of Love — an organiza-tion that provides wigs to childrensuffering from diseases such asalopecia — she had no idea itwould get her on national TV infront of millions of viewers.

New was just one of thousandswho participated in numerousLocks of Love events around thecountry that day, but because herhair was so long — 55 inches —and it hadn’t been cut in morethan 40 years, The Today Showfeatured her.

“It was an awesome experi-ence to see how they produce liveTV shows,” she says. But the

pace of the big city was much different than in Owenton. “Itwas a culture shock.”

The Today Show pro-vided a team of stylistswho had New looking“New York fabulous” bythe end of show.

Medical School. When the announcement was made onApril 12, 1955, that Salk had developed a vaccine, he washailed as a national hero.

Later, at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Cen-ter, Dr. Albert Sabin created another polio vaccine that useda live, but weakened, virus. Because it was easier to ad-minister and reduced the spread of polio, Sabin’s vaccinebecame the standard treatment for years.

Stamps honoring both men were issued recently and thePostal Service held ceremonies in the cities where the twoconducted research — Pittsburgh and Cincinnati.

Both stamps are on sale nationwide.

New Safety and EnvironmentalPerformance Management office

The new office combines the existing Safety Perfor-mance Management, Environmental Management Policy,the Ergonomic Risk Reduction Program and OccupationalSafety and Health Administration Coordination Programinto a single entity.

“Combining all of our safety, health and environmentalprograms under one function will further strengthen oursafety and environmental efforts and help us make thePostal Service an even better place to work.”

DMM REVISION

New Marking Requirement for Bound Printed Matter Machinable ParcelsEffective July 6, 2006, mailers must place a new mark-

ing on Bound Printed Matter (BPM) machinable parcelsconsisting of multiple pieces secured with transparentshrinkwrap. The new marking will enable our automatedequipment to recognize that these BPM machinable par-cels are intended for a single address. The marking doesnot apply to BPM flats or irregular parcels.

Under the new standards in 402.2.0 and 708.7.0 of theMailing Standards of the United States Postal Service,Domestic Mail Manual (DMM�), when a BPM machinableparcel consists of multiple pieces for a single addresssecured with transparent shrinkwrap, mailers must labelthe parcel using one of the following options:

� A firm optional endorsement line (OEL), followed bythe 5-digit destination ZIP Code� of the parcel.

� A blue, pressure-sensitive, barcoded Label F on theaddress side of the parcel.

The new firm OEL or pressure-sensitive Label F require-ment applies only to BPM machinable parcels consisting ofmultiple pieces secured with transparent shrinkwrap. ABPM parcel prepared with a cardboard box, for example,does not require a firm OEL or Label F.

The effective date of these changes is July 6, 2006, butmailers are encouraged to use the new marking as soon aspossible.

NOTICE

Update to Periodicals Zone Analysis ProgramThe Postal Service� has updated the reporting require-

ments for the Zone Analysis Program (ZAP) by clarifyingthat Periodicals mailers may show the ZAP software certifi-cation information in the heading of the USPS QualificationReport or standardized documentation rather than on PSForm 3541, Postage Statement — Periodicals − One Issueor One Edition. The ZAP software certification informationincludes the ZAP option and the effective date of the USPSZone Chart Matrix used by the Periodicals mailer. The pre-vious format for listing the applicable ZAP information onPS Form 3541 is also acceptable.

We have incorporated this update on page 16 of theZAP Technical Guide, which is available on the RIBBS Website at http://ribbs.usps.gov/index.html; under “RIBBSLinks,” click on ZAP, then ZAP Publications, then ZAPTechnical Guide 2006–2007.PDF.

The Postal Service� developed ZAP to assist publish-ers who use PS Form 3541 to allocate Periodicals copies tothe correct zone based upon the most up-to-date USPS�zone information. ZAP is also intended to simplify postageverification procedures by Postal Service employees. ZAPhelps allow the Postal Service to ensure that the zonesclaimed and the postage paid by Periodicals publishers

using PS Form 3541 are accurate and reflect the most cur-rent zone information available from the Postal Service.

ZAP-approved software accurately assigns zones usingthe USPS Zone Chart Matrix (national electronic zonecharts) and is updated at least once each calendar year.Several different ZAP options are available dependingupon the size of mailings and the mailing practices of thepublisher. Periodicals publishers can request ZAP approvalfor their software by following the instructions in the ZAPTechnical Guide.

Periodicals publishers can also complete the Zone Anal-ysis Program Order Form located on the Rapid InformationBulletin Board System (RIBBS) Web site athttp://ribbs.usps.gov/index.html; under “RIBBS Links,” clickon ZAP, then ZAP Order Form.

For more information on ZAP, see the ZAP TechnicalGuide and the article titled “Handbook DM-109 Revision:New Process for Annual Zone Analysis for Periodicals” inPostal Bulletin 22150 (3-17-05, pages 7–9).

FIELD INFORMATION KIT

International Mail — Scanning Inbound Parcels at DeliveryThis field information kit is designed to help reinforce

how important it is for Postal Service� employees to prop-erly scan all inbound international parcels at delivery. As ofJanuary 1, 2006, the Postal Service began assuming liabil-ity for the loss, damage, or rifling of all parcel items sent tothe United States from a foreign destination. Properly scan-ning all inbound international parcels at delivery helps pro-vide customers with the service they expect and at thesame time minimize the liability of the Postal Service. ThePostal Service implemented this change to comply with anew requirement established by the Universal Postal Union(UPU).

The information in this kit helps to reinforce the proce-dures for properly scanning all inbound international par-cels at delivery. This kit contains the following materials:

� Sample Labels.

� Frequently Asked Questions.

Briefing Article

Scanning Inbound International Parcels

On January 1, 2006, the Postal Service assumed liabilityfor the loss, damage, or rifling of all parcel items sent to theUnited States from a foreign destination. The Postal Ser-vice implemented this change to comply with a new re-quirement established by the UPU. According to the UPUdecision, liability applies to all items defined as a parcel,whether or not the item includes a special service. Cover-age is limited to the actual value of the contents or the max-imum indemnity based on the weight of the article,whichever is less.

In an effort to provide our customers with the servicethey expect and at the same time minimize the liability ofthe Postal Service, postmasters and managers shouldinstruct delivery and other field employees of the impor-tance of scanning all inbound international parcels. To as-sist postmasters and managers in talking with their deliveryand field personnel, the following information details theprocess for properly identifying and scanning inbound inter-national parcels at delivery.

Scanning and Signature-Capture Process

When an employee scans or enters an inbound interna-tional parcel at the point of delivery, the Mobile Data

Collection Device (MDCD) scanner either recognizes thebarcode or label ID that was entered or provides a promptto the employee asking if the mailpiece is one of thefollowing:

1. International.

2. COD.

3. Neither.

If the employee enters “3” for “Neither” — which is an in-correct procedure — the scan will not be accepted. Whenthe employee enters “1” for “International” — which is thecorrect procedure — the scan will be accepted. If the em-ployee then chooses “Delivered” as the ConfirmationEvent, the scanner activates additional prompts that guidethe employee in completing the necessary signature-cap-ture process. Employees must follow the signature-capturerequirements for inbound express, registered, recorded de-livery, and insured mail items received from foreigncountries.

All inbound international parcels and express, regis-tered, recorded delivery, and insured mail items that requirescanning and signature capture at delivery contain either ofthe following designations:

� A barcode that starts with a specific alphacharacter — either C, R, A, V, or E.

� A manual endorsement that starts with a specificalpha character — either C, R, A, V, or E.

It is suggested that employees always look for thesedesignations on inbound international parcels to help en-sure they perform the required scanning and signature-capture process.

Label Designations

Listed below are the different types of inbound interna-tional items that require either a scan of the barcode or akeyed entry of the label ID at the time of delivery. Alsonoted are the different types of designations that appear oneach inbound international parcel label.

� Parcels have a “C” prefix, such as “CP123456789BK.”

� Insured parcels may have a barcode or some otherstamped or handwritten number that starts with a “V”prefix, such as “V123456789KY” or “VV123456789KY.”Most insured parcels also have a “C”-prefix barcodedlabel. If a parcel contains two codes, employees are toscan both barcodes at the time of delivery.

Parcels With Multiple Barcodes

For any inbound international parcel that bears morethan one barcode, the employee must scan all of the bar-codes at the time of delivery. If a barcode is unreadable, theemployee must enter the label’s letters and numbers. Somepossible multiple barcode combinations are noted below:

� Parcel “C” and insured “V.”

� Express mail “E” and customs form “C.”

Scanner Malfunction or Scanner Unavailable

If a scanner isn’t available at the time of delivery or ifthere is a scanner malfunction, the delivery employee mustrecord each label’s letters and numbers, the mailer’s name,and the date, time, and ZIP Code� of delivery on the frontof PS Form 3849, Delivery Notice/Reminder/Receipt, ob-tain the recipient’s signature, and deliver the item. When aworking scanner becomes available, follow standard proce-dures for Manual Input (Option 5) (i.e., enter the informationfrom the front of PS Form 3849) and then process the PSForm 3849 following the signature-capture process.

Sample Labels

The appearance of the labels on inbound internationalparcels can differ greatly based on the country of origin. Toassist employees in properly identifying inbound interna-tional mail that requires scanning and signature capture,the following sample labels are provided as examples ofwhat to look for.

� A — recorded delivery (e.g., “A123” or “AA123”).

� V — insured parcel (e.g., “V123456789KY” or“VV123456789KY”).

� E — express mail (e.g., “EP006533895IT”).

3. Is it possible for an inbound international parcel tocontain more than one barcode?

Yes, an inbound international parcel could containmore than one barcode. Here are some possible mul-tiple barcode combinations you might see:

� Parcel “C” and insured “V.”

� Express mail “E” and customs form “C.”

4. Which barcode do I scan when an inbound interna-tional parcel contains more than one barcode?

For any inbound international parcel that bears morethan one barcode, you must scan all of the barcodesat the time of delivery. If a barcode is unreadable, youmust enter the barcode’s letters and numbers into thescanner.

Service Talk for Retail and Delivery Employees

Scanning Inbound International Parcels at Delivery

It is essential that each of us understands the impor-tance of properly scanning inbound international parcels atdelivery. This is critical because as of January 1, 2006, thePostal Service began assuming liability for the loss, dam-age, or rifling of all parcel items sent to the United Statesfrom a foreign destination. This new policy was implement-ed to comply with a requirement established by the UPU.

Another very important reason for proper scanning isour customers. We need to provide them with the servicethey expect and deserve.

The proper scanning of all inbound international parcelstakes commitment from each one of us. So here’s what youneed to know:

� When you scan or enter an inbound international par-cel at the point of delivery, the MDCD scanner eitherrecognizes the barcode or label ID that was enteredor provides a prompt to you asking if the mailpiece isone of the following:

1. International.

2. COD.

3. Neither.

� If you enter “3” for “Neither” — which is an incorrectprocedure — the scan will not be accepted.

� When you enter “1” for “International” — which is thecorrect procedure — the scan will be accepted.

� If you then choose “Delivered” as the ConfirmationEvent, the scanner activates additional prompts thatguide you in completing the necessary signature-capture process.

� You must follow the signature-capture requirementsfor inbound express, registered, recorded delivery,and insured mail items received from foreigncountries.

All inbound international parcels and express, regis-tered, recorded delivery, and insured mail items that requirescanning and signature capture at delivery contain either ofthe following designations:

� A barcode that starts with a specific alphacharacter — either C, R, A, V, or E.

� A manual endorsement that starts with a specificalpha character — either C, R, A, V, or E.

Always look for the C-R-A-V-E designation on inboundinternational parcels to help ensure you perform the re-quired scanning and signature-capture process.

Be aware that you play a role in helping protect the Post-al Service from liability for inbound international parcelsthat are not properly scanned. And always keep in mind theneeds and expectations of our customers. Then, do yourpart — one scan at a time.

Used Toner Cartridge Return Agreements Using Business Reply Mail Labels BenefitPostal Service

In an effort to generate revenue for the Postal Service�,the Office Products & Utilities Category Management Cen-ter (OPU-CMC) has established agreements with the fol-lowing three suppliers to accept used toner cartridgesreturned for recycling via Postal Service Business ReplyMail (BRM) labels. The OPU-CMC Web site,http://blue.usps.gov/purchase/supplies/sup_opu_home2.htm, has links available to download BRM labels for the re-turn of specific used cartridges. The links also are providedbelow.

1. Hewlett-Packard (HP) Toner: http://blue.usps.gov/purchase/supplies/sup_opu_mrlabel.htm

2. Ricoh (Copier Toner): http://blue.usps.gov/purchase/_doc/sup_copylabel.doc

3. Lexmark Toner: http://www.lexmark.com/vgn/images/portal/elpaso_79907.pdf

Unfortunately, toner manufacturers include return labelsin their packaging that use competitor delivery servicessuch as United Parcel Service (UPS), and neither the

Postal Service nor its suppliers can control this practice.However, Postal Service employees do not have to usethose pre-packaged labels. Whenever possible, employeesshould use the labels from the links provided to return usedtoner cartridges.

BRM labels have been established for the most populartoner cartridges used by the Postal Service. If the toner car-tridge to be returned is not one that has a BRM label, theused cartridges — regardless of brand — can be given tothe Boise Cascade Office Products (BCOP) Federal repre-sentative delivering an office supply order at the facility.Moreover, if there are large quantities of used toner car-tridges that need to be returned, a special pick-up requestmay be made through BCOP Federal Customer Service at800-229-USPS (8777). BCOP Federal is the national sup-plier of office products for the Postal Service.

NOTICE

eSPIN — Enhanced Spare Parts InitiativeeSPIN (Enhanced Spare Parts INitiative) is a

commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) system that will not onlyplan, forecast, and optimize inventory for item managerscentrally, but also for maintenance field locations throughthe Maintenance Activity Reporting and Scheduling System(eMARS). This system will pull data from eMARS and theMaterial Distribution and Inventory Management System(MDIMS) to make new buy, repair, and transfer recommen-dations utilizing inventory at the Material Distribution Cen-ter (MDC) and field locations. Recommended orders will begenerated in eSPIN and passed into MDIMS and eMARS. eMARS users will continue to approve the order recom-mendations in eMARS as they do today.

The eSPIN system will track new buy, transfer, and re-pair lead time for parts and supplies and recommend themost advantageous sources of supply. Key benefits of thesystem include the following:

� It will automatically recommend redistribution of “on-hand good” inventory versus recommending newpurchases. Inventory transferred between locationswill trigger journal voucher transactions to credit loca-tions that share their excess inventory and chargelocations that receive the inventory.

� eMARS will receive order and stocking recommenda-tions from eSPIN based on forecast planning ratherthan re-order point calculations used today. Fieldlocations will monitor forecast accuracies for theiroffices. They will also be able to request a forecastchange if research shows a need.

� eSPIN will utilize total inventory (MDC plus field)when forecasting new buy recommendations to itemmanagers. With this calculation, it should reduce thenumber of new buys.

� As machines are taken out of service or redistributed,the forecast for parts will adjust automatically as ma-chine population is updated in eMARS at individuallocations.

� Field locations will have total view of inventory at theMDC and field levels.

eSPIN was implemented for the item managers (MDC)in December 2005. eSPIN will begin making recommenda-tions to eMARS on April 3, 2006.

See http://blue.usps.gov/purchase/operations/ops_espin.htm for additional information.
