The United States Postal Service Office of Inspector General (OIG) released the Flats Cost Coverage Audit Report on June 29, as required by Section 206 of the Postal Service Reform Act. The report states that most Postal Service initiatives are not designed with specific, measurable objectives to directly reduce Flats cost and do not address the causes of inefficiencies in Flats operations identified by the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC). In addition, they identified opportunities for the Postal Service to further collaborate with stakeholders on current and new initiatives related to Flats. Several members of the News/Media Alliance participated in audit. The Postal Regulatory Commission released their Flats Operations Study Report April 6.
Holly Lubart is Vice President, Government Affairs at the News/Media Alliance. Previously, she served as Vice President of Government Affairs for the PA NewsMedia Association and started her career as a journalist. Lubart has over 20 years of political and communications experience.
