Flat Strategy Update
Automate piece & bundle distribution of all flat mail
Reduce Non-value added workImprove existing processes /
standardization
1. Sequence all flats for delivery• FSS zones / delivery units
2. CR-RT all flats for non-FSS zones• AFSM 100• Mailer work-share
3. Finalize all bundles requiring distribution
• APPS, APBS, SPBS
1. Reduce sacks2. Reduce bundle breakage3. Bypass bundle distribution 4. Automate flat mail preparation
1. Equipment utilization• AFSM 100• APPS
2. APPS 100% finalization3. Align flat distribution processes4. Reduce handlings unit/container
density5. Align “redirect” processes
Current Activities FSS phase 1 deploy 100
machines Upgrading 186 SPBS to APBS Reduce manual processing Ensure automated processing of
Periodicalso Eliminate Hot 2-C practices
Align PER CETs w/automated processing
Co-mailing Co-palletization Recognition improvement
programs
Current Activities Bundle integrity / reduce bundle
breakage Optimum bundle sizes to reduce
handlings & bypass bundle distribution
FSS optional mail preparation Origin entry containerization &
separation requirements
Current Activities Facility optimization Equipment consolidations Transportation optimization LSS projects to streamline
operations & increase productivities
Sort plan optimization Eliminate PER & STD flats on air

FSS Optional Mail PreparationFSS Optional Mail Preparation
FSS Optional Mail Preparation Effective January 2, 2011 Mailers provided opportunity to align flat mail
preparation (bundles & pallets) with FSS sort-schemes & processing strategy
Objective Get flats to the front of FSS—bypass
upstream bundle distribution FSS flats available earlier in the end-to-end
flat distribution process
®

FSS Optional Mail PreparationFSS Optional Mail Preparation
1. FSS sort-scheme bundle
Combines all 5-digit flat mailpieces for a sort-scheme into the bundle
2. FSS pallets
FSS scheme pallet
FSS facility pallet

Pallet Description Bundle Make-up Mail Flow (1st handling)
Stand Alone Mail Prep (SAMP)
Bypasses all bundle distribution and ready for flat mail prep & FSS
processing
APPS / SPBS
Moves to the front of the queue for bundle distribution. FSS sort-scheme bundles are sorted into containers that match FSS sort schemes maximizing the flats
available for the early sequencing runs on FSS
APPS / SPBS
Bundles are sorted into containers that match FSS sort schemes,
AFSM 100 sort schemes and CR-RT containers for non-FSS zones
