The OIG issues audit reports almost every week. Often, we prioritize areas where we believe a review is needed, and sometimes we report important service, operational, or other issues that attract attention from stakeholders and even the media.

Mail Processing & Transportation
A delivery unit is usually the last postal facility in the delivery process. That’s where clerks and carriers get the mail ready so it can be loaded onto each mail carrier’s vehicle (or bike or pushcart). In the old days, delivery units often sorted parcels to each route by hand. This is time-consuming when there are a lot of parcels, and in 2014, the Postal Service deployed automated sorters for small packages at some delivery units. More sophisticated parcel sorters were introduced in 2021.
No one has a crystal ball showing what the future will bring. That’s why when people invest, they often try to diversify their funds across a range of options. Some investments may end up below average while others excel, but hopefully they will balance out, providing a good overall return while maintaining the safety of the initial investment.
