AREA MAIL PROCESSING (AMP) FEASIBILITY STUDY
Beaumont TX P&DF to North Houston TX P&DC

June 23, 2011

A functional review of the Beaumont TX  Area Mail Processing (AMP) proposal is complete.  The proposal recommends transferring originating mail processing operations from the Beaumont Processing and Distribution Facility (P&DF) for ZIP Codes 776, 777 to the North Houston TX Processing and Distribution Center (P&DC).  The proposal, which has a projected annual savings of $2,128,701, has been approved.  Implementation of this AMP is expected to be completed by October 2011.

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