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

Date:  January 14, 2011

The Postal Service conducted an Area Mail Processing (AMP) study and determined that efficiency and productivity would be improved by transferring operations from the Houston, TX Processing and Distribution Center (P&DC) to the North Houston, TX P&DC.  The proposal has been approved.  Implementation of this AMP is on hold pending capital funding to expand the North Houston facility.

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