USPS Headquarters Managers and Field Installation Heads: February 2014 Semi-Annual Capital Property Review

The next Semi-Annual Capital Property Review is sched­uled to begin on February 3, 2014; the completion deadline is February 18, 2014. The list of items to be verified by the selected finance numbers will be sent by National Materials Customer Service from the “NMCS Autoreply” email account during the week of February 3, 2014.

The Semi-Annual Capital Property Reviews are a Sar­banes-Oxley (SOX) requirement. A list of finance numbers that receive a Semi-Annual Capital Property Certification Report, but do not submit the report on time, will be pro­vided to senior management.

As needed, the Asset Accountability Service Centers (AASCs) will be contacting Headquarters, area, district, and local management to verify the points of contact for the upcoming February 2014 Semi-Annual Capital Property Review. Instructions for completing the Semi-Annual Cap­ital Property Review will be available via a web link included in the email from NMCS Autoreply. The AASCs are also available to provide support and training upon request. Handbook AS-701, Material Management, is under revi­sion; instructions and guidelines provided by the AASCs supersede Handbook AS-701, where there are conflicts.
