Sec. 102-192.50  What must all agencies do to manage their mail 
effectively and efficiently?


    All agencies are required to:

[[Page 350]]

    (a) Have written security plans for mail operations at the agency 
level and in any facility where one or more full time personnel 
processes mail.
    (b) Ensure that mail costs are identified at the program level 
within the agency; each agency will have to determine the appropriate 
level for this requirement because the level at which it is cost-
beneficial differs widely. Program level costs can be identified from 
tracking mailing expenses by program areas, cost estimates, financial 
reports, reconciled Postal Service records, and reconciled vendor data.
    (c) Beginning December 31, 2003, all payments to the United States 
Postal Service must be made using commercial payment processes, not 
OMAS.
    (d) Have performance measures for mail operations at the agency 
level and in all subordinate locations that spend more than $250,000 per 
year on postage; it is up to each agency to select the actual 
performance measures used.
