The Postal Service has announced it will host a prefiling virtual conference to discuss its plans to improve mail processing and transportation, and how these improvements will align with proposed refinements within its existing service standards for mail and package products.
The conference discussion — to be held Thursday, Sept. 5, at 1 p.m. Eastern — will include operational strategies designed to boost service reliability, cost efficiency and overall productivity; and changes within the current service standards to save the Postal Service approximately $30 billion during the next decade. Changes will not initiate until after this year’s election and peak seasons.
The Postal Service’s Aug. 22 news release and fact sheet have additional information.
