- Description
- Following are questions asked with regard to the Small Footprint Flat Sequencing System (FSS Lite) Sources Sought Notice and the USPS responses: 1) Question: Are there any preliminary size requirements. What would be too big? USPS Response: The current FSS phase 1 requires 15,000 sq ft. There is no defined requirement for phase 2 machines but the USPS anticipates a footprint less than 10,000 sq ft. 2) Question: Are there any preliminary volume/time requirements? USPS Response: The current FSS Phase 1 effective (both passes) throughput is 16,500 pieces per hour. Due to mail volume declines, the USPS is seeking FSS Lite solutions that can handle a larger number of delivery points but with a lower average volume per delivery point. 3) Question: How sequenced will the mail be that enters this potential process? Is it going to be a 1,2 or 3 pass process? USPS Response: It is anticipated that mail entering will be sorted to a 5 digit zone level. Depending on the solution proposed, other levels of sorting would be possible with potential price/performance impacts. 4) Question: Is there any requirement for mixed letters/flats sequencing? USPS Response: Mixed letters and flats processing is not a requirement for the FSS Lite machine. 5) Question: Is there anything against mixed letters/flats sequencing? USPS Response: Mixed letters and flats is not anticipated for the FSS Lite solution
