Reminder to Highway Contract Route Administrative Officials: Correct Completion of PS Form 5429

The St. Louis Accounting Service Center reports receiv­ing over 1,000 copies monthly of PS Form 5429, Certifica­tion of Exceptional Contract Service Performed, that are not submitted in the current format or completed properly. This causes a delay in payment processing.

Every administrative official should be using the July 2007 version of PS Form 5429 to expedite the highway contract route (HCR) payment process.

If an office has replicated PS Form 5429 in an Excel spreadsheet, the column names and numbers should match the July 2007 form in its entirety.

The form is available on Blue at http://blue.usps.gov/formmgmt/5999.htm.

Please adhere to this policy so the Postal Service™ can capture work hour savings by processing payments accu­rately the first time.
