Handbook F-66C, Field Investment Policies and Procedures, Revision
We have revised Handbook F-66C, Field Investment
Policies and Procedures. The March 2006 edition, which
replaces the March 1999 edition, focuses on strengthened
performance, a clearly defined risk analysis process, and
program compliance status reporting for investments requiring a decision analysis report.
Handbook F-66C is available on the Postal ServiceTM
PolicyNet Web site:
• Go to http://blue.usps.gov.
• Under "Essential Links" in the left-hand column, click
on References.
• Under "References" in the right-hand column, under
"Policies," click on PolicyNet.
• Then click on HBKs.
(The direct URL for the Postal Service PolicyNet Web
site is http://blue.usps.gov/cpim.) We will not distribute
printed copies.
The F-66C is the last in the series to be updated. We
have recently revised other modules in the F-66 series -
F-66, F-66A, F-66B, F-66D, and F-66E. Look for them on
the Postal Service PolicyNet Web site.
