POSTAL REGULATORY COMMISSION 

[Docket No. RM2024–9; Order No. 7817] 

RIN 3211–AA39 

Service Performance Measurement 

Systems for Market Dominant 

Products 

AGENCY: Postal Regulatory Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This document acknowledges 

that the Commission will be conducting 

one or more off-the-record technical 

conferences to attain information that 

the Commission requires to effectively 

review the Postal Service’s Service 

Performance Measurement (SPM) 

system. 

DATES: Technical Conference: January 

15, 2025, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, 

Virtual. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

David A. Trissell, General Counsel, at 

202–789–6820. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Docket 

No. RM2024–9 was initiated by the 

Commission to review the accuracy, 

reliability, and representativeness of the 

Postal Service’s SPM system. SPM 

produces composite service 

performance results that are generated 

using several different data sources and 

data processing methods. The service 

performance results produced by SPM 

are an amalgamation of granular and 

siloed evaluations of performance for 

the individual segments of mail 

collection (First Mile), mail processing 

(Processing Duration), and mail delivery 

(Last Mile). Given recent changes in 

operations and mail mix, the 

Commission has concerns about the 

continued validity of the design and 

implementation of each of these three 

systems, as well as how the systems 

function collectively as a whole. 

Commission Information Request No. 

3 sought to obtain, inter alia, the 

programming code associated with 

SPM, as well as a real-world example of 

the relevant SPM calculations being 

performed. The Postal Service moved 

for reconsideration, arguing that 

providing the information requested 

would be burdensome, would raise 

security concerns, and might not be 

technically feasible. The Postal Service 

requested a technical conference to 

discuss these issues, which the 

Commission found good cause to grant. 

By the Commission.

Primary Certifying Official.

I. Introduction 

Pursuant to 39 CFR 3041.405, the 

Commission gives notice that the Postal 

Service filed request(s) for the 

Commission to consider matters related 

to Competitive negotiated service 

agreement(s). The request(s) may 

propose the addition of a negotiated 

service agreement from the Competitive 

product list or the modification of an 

existing product currently appearing on 

the Competitive product list. 

The public portions of the Postal 

Service’s request(s) can be accessed via 

the Commission’s website (http://

www.prc.gov). Non-public portions of 

the Postal Service’s request(s), if any, 

can be accessed through compliance 

with the requirements of 39 CFR 

3011.301.1

Section II identifies the docket 

number(s) associated with each Postal 

Service request, if any, that will be 

reviewed in a public proceeding as 

defined by 39 CFR 3010.101(p), the title 

of each such request, the request’s 

acceptance date, and the authority cited 

by the Postal Service for each request. 

For each such request, the Commission 

appoints an officer of the Commission to 

represent the interests of the general 

public in the proceeding, pursuant to 39 

U.S.C. 505 and 39 CFR 3000.114 (Public

standardized distinct product to the 

Competitive product list or to amend a 

standardized distinct product, the title 

of each such request, the request’s 

acceptance date, and the authority cited 

by the Postal Service for each request. 

Standardized distinct products are 

negotiated service agreements that are 

variations of one or more Competitive 

products, and for which financial 

models, minimum rates, and 

classification criteria have undergone 

advance Commission review. See 39 

CFR 3041.110(n); 39 CFR 3041.205(a). 

Such requests are reviewed in summary
