AREA MAIL PROCESSING (AMP) PROPOSAL SUMMARY
Mojave, CA P&DC to Bakersfield, CA P&DC

Date:  4/15/10

The Postal Service conducted an Area Mail Processing (AMP) study and determined that efficiency and productivity would be improved by transferring the destinating mail processing operations from the Mojave, CA Processing and Distribution Center to the Bakersfield, CA Processing and Distribution Center.  The proposal, which has a projected annual savings of $2,719,618, has been approved.  Implementation of this AMP is expected to be completed by June 2010.  There are no changes to the retail or business services offered at the Mojave Post Office. 

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