12 12 Opportunities to Streamline DMU OpportunityImpact on MailerImpact on USPS AMS and VRSR for direct mail add 47 min to the release of a mailing Mailer needs to build time into production plan for verification Work hours for verification Multiple handling of mailings to facilitate verification Additional labor and equipment required due to multi-handlings Commingle pallets held for 49hr due to verification Mailer needs to build time into production plan for verification, storage space for mail awaiting clearance. Work hours for verification IWCO Direct gives DMU paper estimated postage statements Mailer uses eDocs, wasted paperWork hours for handling/tracking paper statements AMS verificationsAdditional time and handling to accomplish verification Work hours for verification USPS verification used as key QC step Mailer holds mail, disassembles pallet if error found Work hours for verification Pallets for VRSR sit for entire day, 2-3 verified per shift Mailer needs to build time into production plan for verification DMU staffed for entire day 12
