Unsolicited Proposal Program

Introduction

The United States Postal Service is unique as a government organization mandated to operate in as business-like a manner as possible while competing with private industry. The Postal Service therefore relies on the creativity and innovation of the American entrepreneurial community to help meet our business and competitive objectives. It is recognized that some companies and entrepreneurs can see opportunities for excellence and improvement where no one else can — and the Postal Service’s Unsolicited Proposal Program (UPP) is intended to provide them the opportunity to offer their best ideas.
