AREA MAIL PROCESSING (AMP) PROPOSAL SUMMARY
Athens, GA CSMPC to North Metro, GA P&DC

Date:  8/5/09

The Postal Service conducted an Area Mail Processing (AMP) study and determined that efficiency and productivity would be improved by transferring the outgoing mail processing operations from the Athens, GA Customer Service Mail Processing Center (CSMPC) to the North Metro, GA Processing and Distribution Center (P&DC).  The proposal, which has a projected annual savings of $2,352,221, has been approved.  The Athens facility will continue to deliver mail to customers in their service area.

The Postal Service must continually evaluate the opportunity to improve productivity and increase efficiency while maintaining excellent service.  The transfer of the outgoing mail from Athens provides significant savings and allows us to accomplish our goal of making better use of our resources.
