ANNOUNCING A NEW WORKSHOP POSTAL INDUSTRY CONFERENCE SERIES 

FINDING COMMON GROUND FOR POSTAL SERVICE REFORM

 

You are invited to participate in the Common Ground, Postal Conference Series sponsored by Rutgers Business School’s Center for Research in Regulated Industries.  The series will consist of four conferences that will explore new ideas for postal process innovation, alternative pricing structures and next generation Postal products.  

The first of the conferences will be virtual, but it is our hope that the remainder can also be held in person in Washington. K&L Gates law firm has agreed to host the conferences as the nation relaxes its pandemic restrictions for those who would wish to attend.

The conferences will each occur on the fourth Thursday of each month, May 27, June 24, July 22, and Aug 26.  You are invited to attend all sessions or as many as are convenient.  

The first Zoom conference on May 27, from 10:00AM to 1:00PM focuses on Pricing Structures and Financing Regimes for the USO. The event will be structured around the presentation of new ideas by speakers followed by discussant panels. The agenda is as follows: 

Simplified Pricing by Access Point-Michael Plunkett with Discussant Panel Chair Michael Scanlon

Proposal: Support Fund for Universal Postal Delivery -Victor Glass with Discussant Panel Chair Michael Plunkett

Bringing Closure to Benefit Pre-funding requirements-David Williams with Discussant Model Chair Larry Buc

There will be no charge for the online conference.

The remainder of the Common Ground series will examine related issues of potential opportunities to modernize, restructure and innovate the first, middle and last mile of the postal supply chain, as well as potential ideas for new postal products to meet evolving market demands.

We hope you can join us on May 27th at 10:00am using the link below.  See you there.
