3. Proposed Operational Mapping

4. Future State Modeling Outgoing Priority Current: Changes:
All Outgoing Priority is processed at Busse for 463, 464, , 610, 611
International and Military Outgoing Priority processed at ISC
Inbound Foreign transferred to Busse via ISC
Changes:
No Change

5. Future State Modeling Outgoing SPRs Current: Changes:
All Outgoing SPRs are processed at NDC for 463, 464, , 610, 611
ISC works Int’l Import and Export SPRs
Changes:
Busse works Outgoing SPRs for
Carol Stream works Outgoing SPRs for 601, 603
NDC works Outgoing SPRs for 463, 464, 600, 602, 604, 605, 610, 611
Busse, Carol Stream, and NDC serve as offload locations for Int’l Import SPRs from ISC

6. Benefits: Outgoing Priority and SPRs
Future State Modeling
Benefits: Outgoing Priority and SPRs
Benefits:
Keeps OGP Priority intact to benefit from the economies of scale of an AMP
By increasing the number of processing locations and package capacity for outgoing SPRs, this plan addresses the WOO over-capacity issue for Outgoing Priority and Outgoing SPRs.
Provides a more service responsive and cost-efficient processing network for Import SPRs

7. Future State Modeling Incoming Priority Current: Changes:
Indianapolis MPA works Air & Surface 463, 464
Milwaukee MPA works Air & Surface 610, 611
NDC works Air & Surface 604, 605
Busse works Air & Surface
Busse works partial Air & Surface
Cardiss works partial Air & Surface
Changes:
Carol Stream works Air & Surface 601, 603
Palatine works Air & Surface 600, 602
Busse works Air
Cardiss works Surface

8. Future State Modeling Incoming SPRs Current: Changes:
Indianapolis MPA works 463, 464
Milwaukee MPA works 610, 611
NDC works 604, 605
Busse works ,
Changes:
NDC works 463, 464, 604, 605 (Post OWC for 463/464)
Carol Stream works 601, 603
Palatine works 600, 602
Cardiss works

9. Benefits: Incoming Priority and SPRs
Future State Modeling
Benefits: Incoming Priority and SPRs
Benefits:
This plan provides a more effective “Management Line of Sight” because each District will be responsible for their own incoming processing of Priority and SPRs for Machineable, NMOs, and IPPs. (With the exception of SPRs for 463/464 processed by CIL for GID).
This plan addresses the WOO over-capacity issue for Destinating Priority and Destinating SPRs.
In the event package growth continues to expand, Fox Valley and South Suburban could also become a processing node for destinating 605 and 604, respectively.

10. Future State Modeling Incoming PER Current: Changes:
Gary works 463, 464
NDC works 604, 605
Busse works , 610, 611
Cardiss works
Changes:
NDC works 463, 464, 604 (Post OWC for 463/464)
Fox works 601, 603, 605
Busse works (FSS zones to South Suburban and Non-FSS to Cardiss)
Palatine works 600, 602, 610, 611

11. Incoming STD Flats Bundles
Future State Modeling
Incoming STD Flats Bundles
Current:
NDC works 463, 464, 604, 605
Busse works , 610, 611
Cardiss works
Changes:
NDC works 463, 464, 604
Fox works 601, 603, 605
Busse works (FSS zones to South Suburban and Non-FSS to Cardiss)
Palatine works 600, 602, 610, 611

12. Benefits: Incoming PER and STD
Future State Modeling
Benefits: Incoming PER and STD
Benefits:
This plan provides a more effective “Management Line of Sight” because each District will be responsible for their own opening unit work for all STD SCF Letters and PER/STD SCF Flat Bundles (except Gary which is worked by CIL at the NDC).
Expands the WOO for FSS processing of STD and PER bundles which will result in cost savings for the USPS and provide a platform for improved service performance particularly for PERs for , 605, 610, and 611.
Reduces the volume of bundles being processed on the Busse APPS machines thus easing the wear and tear on these critical assets.
