The Postal Service is dedicated to transparency and effectively communicating to our numerous stakeholders. Key among these stakeholders are the commercial and residential customers whom we serve, legislators and regulators who provide oversight and ensure transparency and performance and employees who deliver world-class service.
In addition to communicating performance to our stakeholders, this report satisfies the public reporting requirements contained in Title 39 U.S.C. § 2401(e), § 2402, § 2803 and § 2804, along with the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA) of 2006 Section 3652. These regulations require the Postal Service to provide an Annual Report to Congress, an Annual Performance Report, an Annual Performance Plan and a Comprehensive Statement of Postal Operations. This report covers Postal Service performance for the 2016 fiscal year (Oct. 1, 2015, to Sept. 30, 2016) and reviews the Postal Service’s plans for the 2017 fiscal year (Oct. 1, 2016, to Sept. 30, 2017).
The FY2016 Annual Performance Report and FY2017 Annual Performance Plan present an array of metrics the Postal Service uses to measure performance across the organization. These metrics provide visibility across the following critical functions: delivery service, financial performance, workplace environment and customer experience.
The FY2016 Comprehensive Statement on Postal Operations provides a more detailed description of the key organizational developments during the last fiscal year and the key initiatives underway that support the corporate goals for the next fiscal year.
