摘要

In 1995, the United States Postal Service initiated a program for the development of commercially based material handling systems to support postal mail processing operations. This program, known as Tray Management Systems or TMS, was the Postal Services initial venture into the development and adaptation of commercial material handling technology to support the material handling requirements within our processing and distribution centers. The strategic objective of the TMS program was to implement a technology solution addressing the increasing costs of allied material handling labor supporting our automated mail processing operations. For the Postal Service these costs were greater than $3 Billion per year and continuing to show positive growth. This scenario created a tremendous opportunity for the Postal Service to invest in material handling technology to offset these costs. There were additional issues to be addressed, beyond the escalating labor costs. Market place competition and customer demands were forcing the Postal Service to look into the needs for real-time work in process information. If we could capture this information, we could utilize it to more deterministically operate our plants as well as provide added value to our customers by providing them with accurate status as to where their mailings were in our operations. Combining the need to invest to offset increasing labor costs and the desire to develop an information rich mail stream defined the macro level technical objectives of the TMS program.
