Remittance Mail  
The Postal Service recognizes the vital role mail plays in the remittance industry. Financial institutions, credit card companies, retailers, and consumers all have an interest in the level of service provided to remittance mail. The Postal Service is committed to strengthening its partnership with the remittance industry by initiating service improvements and developing product innovations that are beneficial to our mutual customers.

Invitation to become a subcommittee Chair

Recently, the Remittance Mail Advisory Committee (RMAC) formalized the committee’s structure and expanded its membership. To better channel our efforts, we have identified three key areas of focus: (1) communications, (2) performance metrics/certification, and (3) new technology, products and service. These subcommittees will be tasked with identifying and promoting the interests and needs of the membership.

We are currently seeking qualified individuals willing to chair the communications or new technology, products and services sbcommittees. As the chairperson of a subcommittee you will be in the position to play a major role in improving the flow of information between the remittance industry and the Postal Service.

Your main function will be to guide discussions with subcommittee members leading to an open exchange of ideas and ecommendations for appropriate action.  Meetings may be conducted at geographically diverse locations, via Web meetings or teleconferences.  Each subcommittee will have a Secretary who will be responsible for the administrative tasks of the group. Your commitment and enthusiasm will produce outcomes that are significant.

If you would like to know more about these opportunities, please contact Susan Dudley at susan.dudley@usps.gov or 202 268 7438.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!
