  • DMM Advisory Keeping You Informed About Classification and Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service
    July 2, 2021 DMM Advisory Keeping you informed about classification and mailing standards of the United States Postal Service UPDATE 184: International Mail Service Updates Related to COVID-19 On July 2, 2021, the Postal Service received notifications from various postal operators regarding changes in international mail services due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). The following countries have provided updates to certain mail services: Mauritius UPDATE: Mauritius Post has advised that the Government of Mauritius has announced the easing of COVID-related restrictions as of July 1, 2021, subject to strict adherence to sanitary protocols and measures. On July 15, 2021, Mauritius will gradually open its international borders. However, COVID-19 continues to have a direct impact on international inbound and outbound mails to and from Mauritius. Therefore, the previously announced provisions and force majeure continue to apply for all inbound and outbound international letter-post, parcel-post and EMS items. New Zealand UPDATE: New Zealand Post has advised that the level-2 alert in the Wellington region has ended as of June 29, 2021. Panama UPDATE: Correos de Panama has advised that post offices, mail processing centers (domestic and international) and the air transhipment office at Tocúmen International Airport are operating under normal working hours and the biosafety measures established by the Ministry of Health of Panama (MINSA). Correos de Panamá confirms that it is able to continue to receive inbound mail destined for Panama. However, Correos de Panama is unable to guarantee service standards for inbound and outbound mail. As a result, force majeure with respect to quality of service for all categories of mail items will apply until further notice.

Las alianzas con los principales operadores mundiales de comercio electrónico son clave para facilitar el comercio electrónico mundial. Bruselas, Bélgica, 25 Mayo 2017 - Los CEOs y altos ejecutivos de los principales operadores postales de América, Asia Pacífico y Europa se reunieron el 19 de mayo en Amsterdam para la Conferencia Anual de IPC. Holger Winklbauer, CEO de IPC, comentó sobre el tema de la conferencia de este año y la nueva configuración de la conferencia más centrada en el debate: "A pesar del rápido crecimiento del comercio electrónico, las ventas en línea representan sólo el 8,6% del comercio electrónico. Para que los Correos puedan desempeñar su papel en el panorama del comercio electrónico, tenemos que adaptarnos a las necesidades y expectativas de los minoristas electrónicos y de sus clientes que cambian rápidamente. Los participantes en nuestra conferencia apreciaron la oportunidad de intercambiar puntos de vista e ideas con altos ejecutivos de los principales minoristas electrónicos". Este año, los discursos de la conferencia y los debates exploraron las opciones que los Correos tienen de distribuir, de manera rentable, paquetes ligeros y de bajo valor, que representan la mayor parte del mercado de comercio electrónico transfronterizo.

  • Postal First Services Industry to Commit to CO2 Reductions U.S
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Darlene Casey Oct. 28, 2010 (O) 202-268-3440 (M) 202-438-8886 [email protected] usps.com/news Release No. 10-099 Postal First Services Industry to Commit to CO2 Reductions U.S. Postal Service Improves Score, Surpasses Global Average WASHINGTON — The international postal sector is the first services industry worldwide to commit to reduce its carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, according to the International Post Corporation (IPC). The U.S. Postal Service and 21 other postal operators in North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region — all members of IPC — have pledged to measure CO2 emissions and collectively reduce them by 20 percent by 2020, under IPC's Environmental Measurement and Monitoring system (EMMS.) “The U.S. Postal Service continues to build on our long history of green innovation, and we’re proud to work with our global postal partners to reduce the size of our industry’s carbon footprint,” said Sam Pulcrano, vice president, Sustainability. “Collectively, the 21 EMMS participating posts manage more than 100,000 facilities, 600,000 vehicles, and deliver more than 80 percent of the world’s mail. Our joint effort to reduce CO2 emissions will have a major positive effect on the environment.” The Postal Sector Sustainability Report 2010 recently published by the IPC announced that the global postal industry has already cut CO2 emissions by greater than a half million metric tons — more than one-third the goal — since 2008. The IPC developed EMMS to provide a common carbon measurement and reporting framework. The EMMS tool measures carbon management proficiency (CMP) across 10 areas, including: • Management and strategy • Employee engagement • Measurement and verification • Disclosure and reporting • Value chain management In 2009, the global postal sector had an average CMP score of 61 percent.
