In 2007, the USPS handled 52 billion pieces of flat mail—approximately 25 percent of its total mail volume. Yet, with only 60 percent of flat mail automated, the manual process is still exceedingly expensive, and those costs are passed on to mailers. That’s why the USPS plans to implement its FSS throughout 2008 and work[s] to achieve greater automation and lower rates within flat mail. “It will be an extreme help in streamlining our operations and increasing efficiency, so that’s all part of our overall objective of taking costs out of the system and becoming more efficient,” Partenheimer said.
