USPS 2015 Q2
Financial Results: Net loss decreases slightly:-
In fiscal 2015’s second quarter (Jan.
1-March 31), the Postal Service’s operating revenueincreased $223 million, or 1.3 percent, when compared to
the same period one year earlier. The
net loss was $1.5 billion compared to $1.9 billion a year ago. The operating
revenue increase was driven by 14.4 percent growth in shipping and package
volume. First-Class Mail volume declined 2.1 percent, while Standard Mail
volume dropped 1.1 percent. Controllable
income was $313 million, an increase of $52 million over the same period last
year. This increase is primarily attributed to cost-cutting initiatives and
rising revenue from strong shipping and package volume. Controllable income is defined as net income
excluding retiree health benefits prefunding expenses and expenses for interest
rate and other non-cash workers’ compensation expenses, which are factors
outside of management’s control. “We’re
pleased with the increase in our controllable net income compared to the same
period last year, which demonstrates that our cost containment and revenue
strategies are delivering results,” said PMG Megan Brennan. “We
also took significant steps during the quarter to improve our long-term
operating model, which will help drive greater long-term efficiencies
throughout our network.”

Now, speed post via
ATMs soon in Andhra Pradesh
HYDERABAD: In an effort
to save time and avoid cumbersome processes, the Andhra Pradesh Circle of India Post, is mulling to
launch a new initiative of sending letters and parcels through 'Speed Post'
from automated teller machines (ATMs).
The postal department will tie-up with State Bank ofIndia (SBI) to launch this new
facility. The postal department has tied-up with SBI for post office savings
bank (POSB) ATM and launched it in Vijayawada
recently. At present, SBI has allotted 95 ATMs in Andhra Pradesh to avail the
facility. Explaining
on the way the system would work, chief postmaster general, Andhra Pradesh
circle, B V Sudhakar said a customer intending to send a Speed Post has to visit
a nearby SBI ATM instead of the local post office and carry out a less than
two-minute transaction to send the letter or article.
Once at the ATM, the customer has to choose the option of speed booking. Later, the letter/parcel, which the customer intends to send, has to be weighed with a separate weighing plate attached to the ATM. Immediately, the necessary fee will be displayed on the ATM screen which the customer will have to pay using his credit/debit card. Within seconds, the customer would get two bar-coded receipts. One receipt has to be pasted on the letter/parcel, while the customer will keep the second receipt for record purpose. After completion of the process, the customer has to drop the letter/parcel in a designated box at the ATM. "Postmen, who clear letters and parcels through 'Nanyatha' system, will visit SBI ATMs and clear the letter boxes and forwarded it to the section concerned to deliver them to the receivers," the postal official said.
"As SBI has become our partner in sharing postal services, we have moved a new proposal Speed Post booking through their ATMs. A high-level meeting with officials of SBI regional office,Hyderabad ,
was held last week to discuss the modalities of the new facility. SBI, in turn,
has offered to develop special software to book letters and parcels through
their ATMs," Sudhakar told TOI.
Currently, over 6,000 letters and parcels were being booked through post offices in GreaterHyderabad .
"We are planning to launch the new system in the next three months in
Telangana and Andhra Pradesh," he added.

FIRST POSTAL ATM IN TELANGANA
STATE
LAUNCHED AT HYDERABAD GPO.
“We
have received permission from the TTD today to sell darshan tickets at all
post-offices in the country. The software that we developed will be shared with
other states, in order to make this possible.
Earlier,
there was a rule that each and every person from a family should come to the
post-office to book tickets. Now that rule has been scrapped, making it
possible for one person in a family to come and book tickets for the entire
family,” he explained.
On the
ATM service, he said, “We want to improve the quality of our services by using
the latest technologies. Through these ATMs, people can withdraw cash from
their service accounts and also avail of other banking facilities. We have
plans to extend our services to all the 95 head post-offices in Telangana and
AP.”
Telangana will have 36
ATMs, out of which a couple will be established in the next 10 days at
Secunderabad and Jubilee head
post-offices.
The units will provide the same services as normal ATMs for savings
account holders in post-offices. The postal department is also planning to link
them with commercial banks soon. A maximum of `10,000 can be withdrawn at a
time, and `25,000 on a single day. The
ATMs are integrated under the Core Banking Solutions. All the head post-offices
in the state are already on the CBS platform and about 2,438 sub post-offices
would be upgraded to CBS by March, 2016.
