The Postal Service Supply Chain Management (SCM) activities operate under eight Supplying Principles that represent the strategic elements that guide Postal Service buying and material management activities. Each principle is central to obtaining the financial, operational, and public policy goals outlined in the Postal Service’s strategic plans.
The Postal Service’s Supplier Relations Principle aims to establish and maintain a strong, competitive supplier base that reflects the diversity of the supplier community [Postal Supplying Principles are contained in the Postal Service’s Supplying Principles and Practices (SPs and Ps)]. Postal Service supplying professionals seek out methods to optimize the postal supplier base in line with the specific characteristics of the market, the good or service being supplied, and the goals of the Postal Service.
