Part 1: Statement of Work
Delivery performance will be measured using the following methodology:
| a. | The Postal Service will scan all Handling Units at origin. |
| b. | The Postal Service will nest all Handling Units into ULDs at origin. |
| c. | The Postal Service will tender the nested ULDs to the aviation supplier at origin. |
| d. | The aviation supplier will scan the ULDs with a Possession Scan at origin. |
| e. | The aviation supplier will scan all Handling Units processed through the sort at the hub. |
| f. | The aviation supplier will nest all Handling Units to ULDs departing from the hub. |
| g. | The aviation supplier will scan the ULDs as delivered to the Postal Service upon arrival at destination. |
| h. | The Postal Service will break the ULDs and scan / de-nest all Handling Units. |
Delivery performance will be measured for all ULDs and Handling Units receiving at least a Delivery Scan by the aviation supplier.
The Postal Service will provide data to the aviation supplier via electronic files. The electronic file will show the nested date and time into the ULD, the possession time and date from the aviation supplier, the delivery time and date from the aviation supplier, and the de-nested break time and date from the Postal Service. Additionally, the files will show the weights of each Handling Unit.
Delivery performance on a lane level basis will be calculated as follows:
Total on-time Handling Units, by lane, for the Operating Period, receiving a Delivery Scan
Divided by
Total Handling Units, by lane, for the Operating Period, receiving a Delivery Scan
Reduction of Payment
If the calculated delivery performance is less than the delivery performance requirement, the late D&R tags will be ordered chronologically by the RDT. The percentage of D&R tags corresponding to the difference between [ * ]% and the delivery performance requirement (i.e., [ * ]% (Day Network), [ * ]% (Night Network) or [ * ]% (Peak Operating Period)) will not be assessed a reduction in payment. The remaining late D&R tags will be assessed a reduction in payment as follows:
| a. | All Handling Units delivered up to thirty (30) minutes late will be subject to a [ * ]% reduction of the Transportation Payment. |
| b. | All Handling Units delivered from thirty-one (31) minutes up to one (1) hour to late will be subject to a [ * ]% reduction of the Transportation Payment. |
| c. | All Handling Units delivered 1 hour and one minute late or later will be subject to a [ * ]% reduction of the Transportation Payment. |
The reduction in payment will be based on a conversion of the weight of the late Handling Units to cubic feet by the applicable mail class density and will be applied at the base or the tier in which the late delivery occurred.
Performance Management
The aviation supplier and the Postal Service will meet once a quarter (at a minimum) to discuss items such as the following:

Part 1: Statement of Work
Personnel Screening
In general, the Postal Service accepts air carrier security program requirements set forth by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). In addition to these, the Postal Service also mandates additional requirements.
The Postal Service is aware that the aviation supplier must implement its human resources programs in accordance with certain state laws and that in that respect there may be certain deviations to the literal application of some of the Postal Service requirements set forth herein.
In the event the aviation supplier establishes that a state law prohibits it from requesting from its employees or prospective employees any or all of the information requested in responses to questions 21a through 21e of PS Form 2025,Contract Personnel Questionnaire, as required by 1.d below, or from certifying, as the result of a criminal records check, to any of the items requested under 1.b,Criminal History, below, the aviation supplier shall be relieved of its contractual obligation to require employees or prospective employees to respond to the portions of those questions requesting the prohibited information or to provide that information as part of its criminal records check. In these situations, the Postal Service Security Investigations Service Center (SISC) shall conduct the required criminal checks as outlined in 1.b. below.
To establish the existence and the extent of the prohibitory effect of any such state law referenced above, the aviation supplier shall provide to the SISC documentary evidence (including a copy of the state law) demonstrating the stated prohibition. The Postal Service’s concurrence about the prohibitory nature of a state law shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The Contracting Officer may, in consultation with the aviation supplier and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, grant other appropriate deviations or implement alternate processes to the standard U.S. Postal Inspection Service requirements by letter.
Applicability
Individuals providing services to the Postal Service under this contract (including aviation suppliers, employees of aviation suppliers, and subcontractors and their employees at all levels), hereinafter, “individuals,” who have been hired after the effective date of this contract and whose duties will or likely may involve handing the mail must obtain a security clearance from the Postal Service, as provided herein. Access to the mail as defined by 3.a below is permitted as soon as the security clearance package has been submitted to the SISC in Memphis.
If the aviation supplier commences a new operation (internally or with an aviation supplier) for the purpose of processing Postal volume, the employees hired since the effective date of this contract will be subject to Personnel Screening.
Access to the mail is permitted as soon as the security clearance package has been submitted to the SISC in Memphis. If the aviation supplier has ground handling services performed at air stops by another aviation supplier (subcontractor), and if, to the best knowledge of the prime aviation supplier, that subcontractor is in compliance with the provisions of this clause, the prime aviation supplier may certify that fact to the Contracting Officer in writing, and thereby be relieved of the primary responsibility for personnel screening. Prime aviation suppliers are in all cases responsible for meeting these screening requirements for all persons having access to the mail who are their direct employees. For example, if ABC, Inc. is an aviation supplier, and it performs ground handling services at one or more air stops for CDE, Inc., CDE must certify in writing that:
I certify that at the following air stops ground handling services are being performed by ABC, and that to the best of my knowledge, ABC is an aviation supplier of air transportation services under contract number . A listing of airports served by ABC is attached hereto as follows.
Aviation suppliers must have clauses in their contracts with subcontractors requiring adherence to the Postal Service screening procedures contained in this contract.

Payment Procedures
Rates and Payment General
The aviation supplier will be compensated based upon properly scanned ULDs and Handling Units. The payment for each ULD and Handling Unit will be based on the network (i.e., Day or Night) to which the mail is assigned by the Postal Service. This process will allow for automated payment.
[ * ]
Scan Requirements
All scan requirements listed below are specified in theScanning and Data Transmissionsection.
Night Turn Scan Requirements
| a. | Possession Scan of all ULDs and Handling Units at the origin |
| b. | Delivery Scan of all ULDs and Handling Units delivered at destination |
Day Turn Scan Requirements
| a. | The aviation supplier will conduct a Possession Scan of all ULDs and Handling Units at the origin. |
| b. | The aviation supplier will conduct a Nest Scan associating the Handling Unit with a ULD at the hub. |
| c. | The aviation supplier will conduct a Delivery Scan of all ULDs and Handling Units delivered at destination. |
The Hub Sort Scans will be paid in accordance with the pricing listed inAttachment 10: Pricing for Handling Units sorted at the hub on the Day Network for which scans are provided. Hub Sort Scans will not be paid for Handling Units assigned to a Bypass ULD or for the Night Network.
[ * ]
The base and tier pricing fromAttachment 10: Pricing will be applied to the volume measured in each Operating Period as follows. Volume within the base will be paid at the Base Rate. The portion of volume exceeding the base volume and falling within the Tier 1 volume will be paid at the Tier 1 rate. A similar incremental process will be applied to volume that falls within subsequent tiers.
Payments will be made by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT).
[ * ]
The aviation supplier will bill additional charges not covered within the automated payments system on a weekly basis. For correct and sufficient invoices received by noon Wednesday of a given week, the Postal Service will process them so as to generate a payment by Wednesday, three (3) weeks following the receipt of the invoice through the EFT process.
* | Blank spaces contained confidential information which has been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. |

Part 1: Statement of Work
Payment Processing—Day Network—Per Cube
Invoicing
All invoices for the transportation of Handling Units or ULDs under this contract will be paid by the cubic foot and payment will be based on completing the required scans.
Mail Tendered in ULDs
The Line Haul rate for each ULD will be comprised of two components: Non-Fuel Line Haul and Fuel Line Haul. The Non-Fuel Line Haul rate will include all of the transportation and handling associated with a ULD. Hub Sort Scanning rates are separate from the Non-Fuel Line Haul rate.
ULD cubic feet will be paid at the agreed cubic feet size for each ULD type described inAttachment 10: Pricing.
The cubic feet paid will be based on the Postal assigned ULD type. If the Postal ULD type is missing, the aviation supplier’s ULD type will be used for invoicing. Any discrepancies between the types of ULD processed will be resolved during the Reconciliation Process.
The transportation payment for mixed ULDs will be based on the applicable cubic feet of the originating ULD. These transportation payments will be reduced for Handling Units not receiving a Delivery Scan by converting the weight of the Handling Units without a Delivery Scan at the correct destination to cubic feet by the applicable mail class density.
The transportation payment for bypass ULDs will be based on the applicable cubic feet of the originating ULD. These transportation payments will not be made for Bypass ULDs without a Delivery Scan at the correct destination.
Recognizing operational inefficiencies filling the last ULD at every location, the Postal Service will incorporate within the daily invoice a daily credit based on the total cubic feet of the mixed ULDs in the Operating Plan divided by the total number of mixed ULDs in the Operating Plan for each origin air stop per day multiplied by 50%. The rate used will be the applicable base or tier cubic foot rate used at the beginning of the invoice day.
Mail Tendered from Surface Trucks
If mail is tendered to the aviation supplier from a defined truck location as identified inAttachments 3 and 4at contract award, the invoiced cubic feet will be calculated by dividing the Handling Unit’s Postal Service assigned rounded weight by the applicable mail class density.
Mail Tendered from Ad Hoc Trucks into the Aviation Supplier Hub
The aviation supplier will accept ad hoc trucks from the Postal Service at the proposed hub locations. The invoiced cubic feet for ad hoc trucks will be calculated by dividing the Handling Unit’s Postal Service assigned rounded weight by the applicable mail class density. Recognizing the reduced work content, the aviation supplier will provide an unload rate inAttachment 10: Pricing for the receipt and processing of all ad hoc truck mail volume. The Postal Service will incorporate ad hoc truck payments in the weekly electronic payment.
Aviation Supplier Surface Transportation – Not Included in the Transportation Payment
The aviation supplier will include a separate rate per mile for Highway Transportation inAttachment 10: Pricingwhich will be applied when the Postal Service requires the aviation supplier to operate unplanned surface transportation of mail.
Hub Sort Scan Charge
The Postal Service will pay a Hub Sort Scan charge for mail sorted and scanned at a hub per Handling Unit (i.e., D&R Tag) as shown inAttachment 10: Pricing. This rate will not be subject to an increase for the full term of the contract.
Page 27 of 100
Air Cargo Network
Contract ACN-13-FX
Part 1: Statement of Work
Handling Units sorted at a hub must receive a Hub Sort Scan for payment purposes. The Postal Service will not pay a Hub Sort Scan charge for sorts not supported by EDI scan information. The pieces scanned into a tendered Bypass container are not eligible to receive Hub Sort Scan charges.
Re-Labeling Charge
The Postal Service will pay an additional charge to the aviation supplier for re-labeling Postal Service Handling Units at the hub for which the D&R tag is missing or becomes illegible. The Postal Service will also provide all equipment necessary to perform this function. The re-labeling charge per Handling Unit is shown inAttachment 10: Pricing.
This rate will not be subject to an increase for the full term of the contract.
Payment to the aviation supplier for the transport of re-labeled Handling Units will be based upon data received from the Hub Scan plus (combined and matched with) the Delivery Scan for the Handling Unit. An average weight per Handling Unit will be established based upon the previous month’s data for average weight per Handling Unit, and for Handling Units that are not properly scanned due to conditions beyond the aviation supplier’s control.
The equipment to be supplied by the Postal Service for this function will be listed inAttachment 6:Postal Furnished Property, and will be covered by Clause 2-22,Postal Service Property.Attachment 6: Postal Furnished Propertywill be created upon successful installation of the equipment. Upon reasonable advance notice to the aviation supplier, the Postal Service shall be permitted to perform maintenance on any of the equipment located in an aviation supplier’s facility listed inAttachment 6: Postal Service Furnished Property.
Fuel Adjustment
There will be a monthly fuel adjustment to the Fuel Line Haul rate. Each “month” is defined inAttachment 1: Postal Service Operating Periods. The adjustment will become effective on the first operating day of each operating period after contract commencement. The adjustment may be upward or downward.
The adjustment will be based on the U.S. Gulf Coast (USGC) prices for Kerosene-type jet fuel reported by the U.S. Department of Energy for the month that is two (2) months prior to the adjustment. The adjustment will be calculated and applied monthly.
For example, assume the Fuel Line Haul rate is $0.10. If the June 20XX USGC price for Kerosene-type jet fuel is $2.68 per gallon and the July 20XX price is $3.00 per gallon, then the adjustment for September XX would be calculated as follows:
($3.00 / $2.68) = 1.12
1.12 x $0.10 = $0.11
The new Fuel Line Haul rate would be $0.11 per cubic foot.
In August 20XX, if the USGC price is $2.70 per gallon, the calculation for the October 20XX rate would be:
($2.70 / $3.00) = 0.90
0.90 x $0.11 = $0.10 per cubic foot
This calculation will be rounded after the decimal to four digits.
The proposal pricing should be based on the August 2012 U.S. Gulf Coast Kerosene-type jet fuel reported by the U.S. Department of Energy ($3.156 per gallon).
Fuel will be adjusted for October 2013 based on the August 2013 U.S. Gulf Coast Kerosene-type jet fuel reported by the U.S. Department of Energy.

Air Cargo Network
Contract ACN-13-FX
Part 1: Statement of Work
Payment Processing—Night Network—Per Pound
Invoicing
All Handling Units tendered to the aviation supplier for the Night Network will be paid by the pound and payment will be based on required scanning. The weight will be derived from the assigned rounded weight of the Handling Unit. The Non-Fuel Line Haul rate will include all of the transportation and handling associated with a Handling Unit. The Fuel Line Haul rate for the Night Network will not be subject to a fuel adjustment.
Re-Labeling Charge
The Postal Service will pay an additional charge to the aviation supplier for re-labeling Postal Service Handling Units for which the D&R tag is missing or becomes illegible. The Postal Service will also provide all equipment necessary to perform this function. The re-labeling charge per Handling Unit is shown inAttachment 10: Pricing. This rate will not be subject to an increase for the full term of the contract.
Payment to the aviation supplier for transport of re-labeled Handling Units will be based upon data received from the Hub Scan plus (combined and matched with) the Delivery Scan for the Handling Unit. An average weight per Handling Unit will be established based upon the previous month’s data for average weight per Handling Unit and for Handling Units that are not properly scanned due to conditions beyond the aviation supplier’s control.
The equipment to be supplied by the Postal Service for this function will be listed inAttachment 6:Postal Furnished Property, and will be covered by Clause 2-22,Postal Service Property.Attachment 6will be created upon successful installation of the equipment. Upon reasonable advance notice to the aviation supplier, the Postal Service shall be permitted to perform maintenance on any of the equipment located in an aviation supplier’s facility listed inAttachment 6.
The payment for the Night Network re-labeled Handling Units will be adjusted to reflect the percentage of re-labeled Handling Units that have already been scanned. This percentage of previously scanned Handling Units will be mutually agreed upon by the Postal Service and the aviation supplier through an audit sampling of re-labeled Handling Units. Contingency Handling Units are excluded from this adjustment.
Reconciliation Process
Reconciliation of scanning and payment records between the Postal Service and the aviation supplier will be conducted in a scheduled meeting attended by the Postal Service and the aviation supplier on an Operating Period basis not more than ninety (90) days after the close of an Operating Period, or a time frame as agreed mutually by the parties. The following procedures will be observed for the reconciliation process:
| a. | All data exchanges between the aviation supplier and the Postal Service for the reconciliation process will be performed electronically and sent to specified mailboxes operated by each organization. Each file will have an individually specified transmission interval. |
| b. | For all files exchanged between the aviation supplier and the Postal Service, any changes to layout or data definition must be communicated to the receiving party at a minimum of sixty (60) calendar days prior to implementation, or sooner if mutually agreed. |
| c. | All file transfers must adhere to Postal Service Security and Privacy rules. |
| d. | Supplemental Charges / Assessments may be assessed each Operating Period. The charges shall include but not be limited to the following: |
| i. | Operating Period Volume Minimum and Contract Volume Minimum |
Page 29 of 100
Air Cargo Network
Contract ACN-13-FX
Part 1: Statement of Work
| ii. | Non-achievement of performance standards |
| e. | Once the parties have mutually agreed on the Operating Period reconciliation, both parties agree that neither can re-open the Operating Period for further adjustments. By mutually agreeing to the Operating Period reconciliation, the parties thereby agree to waive their right to pursue a claim under the Contract Disputes Act based upon the Operating Period reconciliation. |
In the event there is a catastrophic equipment or information system failure, the aviation supplier will provide electronic files to the Postal Service identifying all D&R Tags the aviation supplier scanned that were lost. The aviation supplier will notify the Contracting Officer and the COR as soon as the aviation supplier becomes aware of such a failure.
If the Postal Service cannot produce D&R Tags, an emergency contingency will be developed and implemented. Such a plan will include specifications for operational and information technology issues, as well as payment.

The aviation supplier must protect and safeguard the mail from loss, theft, or damage while it is in the aviation supplier’s custody or control, and prevent unauthorized persons from having access to the mail.
| a. | Classification of Irregularities |
The following classifications of irregularities are those that preclude the Postal Service from accomplishing its mission. The damage caused from these irregularities result in actual damage and degradation to its brand, and therefore, is associated with liquidated damages as stated:
Failure to protect the mail consists of: failure to protect or safeguard the mail from inclement weather, from damage caused by the mechanized sort, from acts of the aviation supplier’s employees or contractors, and from loss, depredation, or other hazards while in the control or custody of the aviation supplier.
The theft of mail can cause immeasurable damage to the Postal Service, both in terms of actual economic loss to our customers and to the competitive standing of our products and services. The aviation supplier will support law enforcement efforts to prevent theft of mail, and will support enforcement officials in the apprehension of those who may be perpetrating such crimes.

| 1. | Damaged and Unprotected Mail |

| i. | Failure to Protect – Causing Damage to Mail |
Failure to protect causing physical damage to the U.S. Mail or MTE for which there may be damage assessed equal to the actual costs incurred by the Postal Service necessary to remedy the situation and forward the mail onward to its next processing or delivery operation. Such actual costs may include items such as administrative time at an appropriate hourly rate for documenting the irregular condition and implementing the damage, labor time used to repossess the mail, unpack, sort, dry, repack / repackage, and re-dispatch to a subsequent destination or processing operation.
If actual damages are not ascertainable, a liquidated damage may be assessed as follows, taking into account the actual damage that may typically result from such situations:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

Part 3: Contract Clauses
| ii. | Failure to Protect—Dropped or Abandoned Pouch or Piece |
When U.S. Mail is discovered unprotected in an unsecured location or on the airport ramp, Liquidated Damages may be assessed at $50.00 per incident.
| c. | Investigative Costs for Theft of Mail |
In cases where a mail theft is committed by the aviation supplier’s or its subcontractor’s personnel, actual investigative costs to the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and/or the Office of the Inspector General may be assessed as actual damages. These costs will be reasonably determined and may begin accruing only when a specific investigation begins on the basis of probable cause. The costs of routine surveillance not associated with a specific theft or series of thefts will not be assessed. In addition to allocable investigative expenses, the Postal Service may assess actual damages for loss of product value resulting from insurance claims where payouts to postal customers can be traced to the incident(s).
In addition to the above, in cases where mail theft occurs and the Postal Service determines that the aviation supplier’s failure to properly execute the mail handling employee screening requirements set forth in the Contract was a proximate cause of the theft, and that by reason of the theft it is necessary to conduct a complete audit of the aviation supplier’s adherence to the screening requirements with respect to the employment of other employees subject to those requirements, the Postal Service may assess an administrative damage in the amount of $5,000 in lieu of actual costs associated with that audit.
Depending upon the circumstances of the incident, the Vice President, Network Operations, in consultation with the Postal Inspection Service or Office of the Inspector General, and the Contracting Officer, may determine that damages pursuant to this section are not appropriate, and may waive all or a portion of the amounts that may otherwise be due the Postal Service hereunder. Factors such as the seriousness of the misconduct, the aviation supplier’s level of cooperation in investigations, implementing corrective actions, and efforts directed at loss recovery will be considered in reaching that determination.
Clause B-80: Laws and Regulations Applicable (March 2006) (Tailored)

The contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as may be directed by the Secretary of Labor as a means of enforcing such provisions including sanctions for noncompliance,provided,however, that in the event the contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction, the contractor may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interest of the United States. |
Clause 9-9: Equal Opportunity Preaward Compliance of Subcontracts (March 2006) (Tailored)
The aviation supplier may not enter into a first-tier subcontract for an estimated or actual amount of $1 million or more without obtaining in writing from the Contracting Officer a clearance that the proposed subcontractor is in compliance with equal opportunity requirements and therefore eligible for award.
Clause 9-10: Service Contract Act (March 2006)
| a. | This contract is subject to the Service Contract Act of 1965, as amended (41 U.S.C. 351 et seq.), and to the following provisions and all other applicable provisions of the Act and regulations of the Secretary of Labor issued under the Act (29 CFR Part 4). |
| 1) | Each service employee employed in the performance of this contract by the aviation supplier or any subcontractor must be: a) paid not less than the minimum monetary wages and b) furnished fringe benefits in accordance with the wages and fringe benefits determined by the Secretary of Labor or an authorized representative, as specified in any wage determination attached to this contract. |

Part 3: Contract Clauses
| a) | If a wage determination is attached to this contract, the Contracting Officer must require that any class of service employees not listed in it and to be employed under the contract (that is, the work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination) be classified by the aviation supplier so as to provide a reasonable relationship (that is, appropriate level of skill comparison) between the unlisted classifications and the classifications in the wage determination. The conformed class of employees must be paid the monetary wages and furnished the fringe benefits determined under this clause. (The information collection requirements contained in this paragraph b have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB control number 1215-0150.) |
| b) | The conforming procedure must be initiated by the aviation supplier before the performance of contract work by the unlisted class of employees. A written report of the proposed conforming action, including information regarding the agreement or disagreement of the authorized representative of the employees involved or, if there is no authorized representative, the employees themselves, must be submitted by the aviation supplier to the Contracting Officer no later than 30 days after the unlisted class of employees performs any contract work. The Contracting Officer must review the proposed action and promptly submit a report of it, together with the agency’s recommendation and all pertinent information, including the position of the aviation supplier and the employees, to the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, for review. Within 30 days of receipt, the Wage and Hour Division will approve, modify, or disapprove the action, render a final determination in the event of disagreement, or notify the Contracting Officer that additional time is necessary. |
| c) | The final determination of the conformance action by the Wage and Hour Division will be transmitted to the Contracting Officer, who must promptly notify the aviation supplier of the action taken. The aviation supplier must give each affected employee a written copy of this determination, or it must be posted as a part of the wage determination. |
| i. | The process of establishing wage and fringe benefit rates bearing a reasonable relationship to those listed in a wage determination cannot be reduced to any single formula. The approach used may vary from determination to determination, depending on the circumstances. Standard wage and salary administration practices ranking various job classifications by pay grade pursuant to point schemes or other job factors may, for example, be relied upon. Guidance may also be obtained from the way various jobs are rated under federal pay systems (Federal Wage Board Pay System and the General Schedule) or from other wage determinations issued in the same locality. Basic to the establishment of conformable wage rates is the concept that a pay relationship should be maintained between job classifications on the basis of the skill required and the duties performed. |

Part 3: Contract Clauses
| ii. | If a contract is modified or extended or an option is exercised, or if a contract succeeds a contract under which the classification in question was previously conformed pursuant to this clause, a new conformed wage rate and fringe benefits may be assigned to the conformed classification by indexing (that is, adjusting) the previous conformed rate and fringe benefits by an amount equal to the average (mean) percentage increase change in the wages and fringe benefits specified for all classifications to be used on the contract that are listed in the current wage determination, and those specified for the corresponding classifications in the previously applicable wage determination. If these conforming actions are accomplished before the performance of contract work by the unlisted class of employees, the aviation supplier must advise the Contracting Officer of the action taken, but the other procedures in b.2(c) above need not be followed. |
| iii. | No employee engaged in performing work on this contract may be paid less than the currently applicable minimum wage specified under section 6(a)(1) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended. |
| e) | The wage rate and fringe benefits finally determined pursuant to b.2(a) and (b) above must be paid to all employees performing in the classification from the first day on which contract work is performed by them in the classification. Failure to pay unlisted employees the compensation agreed upon by the interested parties and/or finally determined by the Wage and Hour Division retroactive to the date the class of employees began contract work is a violation of the Service Contract Act and this contract. |
| f) | Upon discovery of failure to comply with b.2(a) through (e) above, the Wage and Hour Division will make a final determination of conformed classification, wage rate, and / or fringe benefits that will be retroactive to the date the class of employees commenced contract work. |
| 3) | If, as authorized pursuant to section 4(d) of the Service Contract Act, the term of this contract is more than one year, the minimum monetary wages and fringe benefits required to be paid or furnished to service employees will be subject to adjustment after one year and not less often than once every two years, pursuant to wage determinations to be issued by the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration of the Department of Labor. |
| c. | The aviation supplier or subcontractor may discharge the obligation to furnish fringe benefits specified in the attachment or determined conformably to it by furnishing any equivalent combinations of bona fide fringe benefits, or by making equivalent or differential payments in cash in accordance with the applicable rules set forth in Subpart D of 29 CFR Part 4, and not otherwise. |
| 1) | In the absence of a minimum-wage attachment for this contract, neither the aviation supplier nor any subcontractor under this contract may pay any person performing work under the contract (regardless of whether they are service employees) less than the minimum wage specified by section 6(a)(1) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. Nothing in this provision relieves the aviation supplier or any subcontractor of any other obligation under law or contract for the payment of a higher wage to any employee. |

Part 3: Contract Clauses
2)
| a) | If this contract succeeds a contract subject to the Service Contract Act, under which substantially the same services were furnished in the same locality, and service employees were paid wages and fringe benefits provided for in a collective bargaining agreement, in the absence of a minimum wage attachment for this contract setting forth collectively bargained wage rates and fringe benefits, neither the aviation supplier nor any subcontractor under this contract may pay any service employee performing any of the contract work (regardless of whether or not the employee was employed under the predecessor contract), less than the wages and fringe benefits provided for in the agreement, to which the employee would have been entitled if employed under the predecessor contract, including accrued wages and fringe benefits and any prospective increases in wages and fringe benefits provided for under the agreement. |
| b) | No aviation supplier or subcontractor under this contract may be relieved of the foregoing obligation unless the limitations of section 4.1(b) of 29 CFR Part 4 apply or unless the Secretary of Labor or an authorized representative finds, after a hearing as provided in section 4.10 of 29 CFR Part 4, that the wages and/or fringe benefits provided for in the agreement vary substantially from those prevailing for services of a similar character in the locality, or determines, as provided in section 4.11 of 29 CFR Part 4, that the agreement applicable to service employees under the predecessor contract was not entered into as a result of arm’s-length negotiations. |
| c) | If it is found in accordance with the review procedures in 29 CFR 4.10 and/or 4.11 and Parts 6 and 8 that wages and/or fringe benefits in a predecessor aviation supplier’s collective bargaining agreement vary substantially from those prevailing for services of a similar character in the locality, and/or that the agreement applicable to service employees under the predecessor contract was not entered into as a result of arm’s-length negotiations, the Department will issue a new or revised wage determination setting forth the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits. This determination will be made part of the contract or subcontract, in accordance with the decision of the Administrator, the Administrative Law Judge, or the Board of Service Contract Appeals, as the case may be, irrespective of whether its issuance occurs before or after award (53 Comp. Gen. 401 (1973)). In the case of a wage determination issued solely as a result of a finding of substantial variance, it will be effective as of the date of the final administrative decision. |
| e. | The aviation supplier and any subcontractor under this contract must notify each service employee starting work on the contract of the minimum monetary wage and any fringe benefits required to be paid pursuant to the contract, or must post the wage determination attached to this contract. The poster provided by the Department of Labor (Publication WH 1313) must be posted in a prominent and accessible place at the worksite. Failure to comply with this requirement is a violation of section 2(a)(4) of the Act and of this contract. (Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB control number 1215-0150.) |
| f. | The aviation supplier or subcontractor may not permit services called for by this contract to be performed in buildings or surroundings or under working conditions provided by or under the control or supervision of the aviation supplier or subcontractor that are unsanitary or hazardous or dangerous to the health or safety of service employees engaged to furnish these services, and the aviation supplier or subcontractor must comply with the safety and health standards applied under 29 CFR Part 1925. |

| f) | Any list of the predecessor aviation supplier’s employees furnished to the aviation supplier pursuant to section 4.6(1)(2) of 29 CFR Part 4. |
| 2) | The aviation supplier must also make available a copy of this contract for inspection or transcription by authorized representatives of the Wage and Hour Division. |
| 3) | Failure to make and maintain or to make available the records specified in this paragraph g for inspection and transcription is a violation of the regulations and this contract, and in the case of failure to produce these records, the Contracting Officer, upon direction of the Department of Labor and notification of the aviation supplier, must take action to suspend any further payment or advance of funds until the violation ceases. |
| 4) | The aviation supplier must permit authorized representatives of the Wage and Hour Division to conduct interviews with employees at the worksite during normal working hours. |
| h. | The aviation supplier must unconditionally pay to each employee subject to the Service Contract Act all wages due free and clear and without subsequent deduction (except as otherwise provided by law or regulations, 29 CFR Part 4), rebate, or kickback on any account. Payments must be made no later than one pay period following the end of the regular pay period in which the wages were earned or accrued. A pay period under the Act may not be of any duration longer than semimonthly. |
| i. | The Contracting Officer must withhold or cause to be withheld from the Postal Service aviation supplier under this or any other contract with the aviation supplier such sums as an appropriate official of the Department of Labor requests or the Contracting Officer decides may be necessary to pay underpaid employees employed by the aviation supplier or subcontractor.

The report must be made upon starting performance of the contract, in the case of collective bargaining agreements effective at the time. In the case of agreements or provisions or amendments thereof effective at a later time during the period of contract performance, they must be reported promptly after their negotiation.

| o. | Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this clause, the following employees may be employed in accordance with the following variations, tolerances, and exemptions, which the Secretary of Labor, pursuant to section 4(b) of the Act before its amendment by Public Law 92-473, found to be necessary and proper in the public interest or to avoid serious impairment of the conduct of government business: |
| 1) | Apprentices, student-learners, and workers whose earning capacity is impaired by age, or physical or mental deficiency or injury may be employed at wages lower than the minimum wages otherwise required by section 2(a)(1) or 2(b)(1) of the Service Contract Act without diminishing any fringe benefits or cash payments in lieu thereof required under section 2(a)(2) of the Act, in accordance with the conditions and procedures prescribed for the employment of apprentices, student-learners, handicapped persons, and handicapped clients of sheltered workshops under section 14 of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, in the regulations issued by the Administrator (29 CFR Parts 520, 521, 524, and 525). |
| 2) | The Administrator will issue certificates under the Service Contract Act for the employment of apprentices, student-learners, handicapped persons, or handicapped clients of sheltered workshops not subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, or subject to different minimum rates of pay under the two Acts, authorizing appropriate rates of minimum wages (but without changing requirements concerning fringe benefits or supplementary cash payments in lieu thereof), applying procedures prescribed by the applicable regulations issued under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (29 CFR Parts 520, 521, 524, and 525). |
| 3) | The Administrator will also withdraw, annul, or cancel such certificates in accordance with the regulations in Parts 525 and 528 of Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations. |
| p. | Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they perform when they are employed and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Labor, or if no such recognized agency exists in a state, under a program registered with the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, Employment and Training Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. Any employee not registered as an apprentice in an approved program must be paid the wage rate and fringe benefits contained in the applicable wage determination for the journeyman classification of work actually performed. The wage rates paid apprentices may not be less than the wage rate for their level of progress set forth in the registered program, expressed as the appropriate percentage of the journeyman’s rate contained in the applicable wage determination. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen employed on the contract work in any craft classification may not be greater than the ratio permitted to the aviation supplier for its entire workforce under the registered program. |
| q. | An employee engaged in an occupation in which he or she customarily and regularly receives more than $30 a month tips may have the amount of tips credited by the employer against the minimum wage required by section 2(a)(1) or section 2(b)(1) of the Act in accordance with section 3(m) of the Fair Labor Standards Act and Regulations, 29 CFR Part 531. However, the amount of this credit may not exceed $1.24 per hour beginning January 1, 1980, and $1.34 per hour after December 31, 1980. To utilize this proviso: |

Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the aviation supplier (or any of its subcontractors) and the Postal Service, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their representatives. |
Clause 9-12: Fair Labor Standards Act and Service Contract Act—Price Adjustment (February 2010)
| a. | The aviation supplier warrants that the contract prices do not include allowance for any contingency to cover increased costs for which adjustment is provided under this clause. |
| b. | The minimum prevailing wage determination, including fringe benefits, issued under the Service Contract Act of 1965 by the Department of Labor (DOL), current at least every two years after the original award date, current at the beginning of any option or renewal period, or in the case of a significant change in labor requirements, applies to this contract and any exercise of an option or renewal of this contract. When no such determination has been made as applied to this contract, the minimum wage established in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act applies to any exercise of an option or renewal of this contract. |
| c. | When, as a result of the determination of minimum prevailing wages and fringe benefits applicable (1) every two years after original award date, (2) at the beginning of any option or renewal period, or (3) in the case of a significant change in labor requirements, an increased or decreased wage determination is applied to this contract, or when as a result of any amendment to the Fair Labor Standards Act enacted after award that affects minimum wage, and whenever such a determination becomes applicable to this contract under law, the aviation supplier increases or decreases wages or fringe benefits of employees working on the contract to comply, the aviation supplier and the Contracting Officer will negotiate whether and to what extent either party will absorb the costs of the wage change. Any resulting change in contract price is limited to increases or decreases in wages or fringe benefits, and the concomitant increases or decreases in Social Security, unemployment taxes, and workers’ compensation insurance, but may not otherwise include any amount for general and administrative costs, overhead, or profit. |
| d. | The aviation supplier or Contracting Officer may request a contract price adjustment within 30 days of the effective date of a wage change. If a request for contract price adjustment has been made, and the parties have not reached an agreement within thirty days of that request, the Contracting Officer should issue a unilateral change order in the amount considered to be a fair and equitable adjustment. The aviation supplier may then either accept the amount, or the aviation supplier may file a claim under Clause B-9:Claims and Disputes unless the Contracting Officer and aviation supplier extend this period in writing. Upon agreement of the parties, the contract price or unit price labor rates will be modified in writing. Pending agreement on or determination of any such adjustment and its effective date, the aviation supplier must continue performance. |

The contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Federal Contract Compliance Programs may direct to enforce such provisions, including action for noncompliance. |
Clause 9-14: Equal Opportunity for Disabled Veterans, Recently Separated Veterans, Other Protected Veterans, and Armed Forces Service Medal Veterans (February 2010) (Tailored)
| a. | The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because he or she is a disabled veteran, recently separated veteran, other protected veteran, or Armed Forces service medal veteran in regard to any position for which the employee or applicant for employment is qualified.

Part 3: Contract Clauses
| c. | Listing of employment openings with the appropriate employment service delivery system pursuant to this clause shall be made at least concurrently with the use of any other recruitment source or effort and shall involve the normal obligations which attach to the placing of abona fidejob order, including the acceptance of referrals of veterans and nonveterans. The listing of employment openings does not require the hiring of any particular job applicants or from any particular group of job applicants, and nothing herein is intended to relieve the contractor from any requirements in Executive orders or regulations regarding nondiscrimination in employment. |
| d. | Whenever a contractor, other than a state or local governmental contractor, becomes contractually bound to the listing provisions in paragraphs 2 and 3 of this clause, it shall advise the state workforce agency in each state where it has establishments of the name and location of each hiring location in the state. As long as the contractor is contractually bound to these provisions and has so advised the state agency, there is no need to advise the state agency of subsequent contracts. The contractor may advise the state agency when it is no longer bound by this contract clause. |
| e. | The provisions of paragraphs 2 and 3 of this clause do not apply to the listing of employment openings which occur and are filled outside of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Wake Island, and the Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands. |

Part 3: Contract Clauses
Force Majeure
Both the Postal Service and the aviation supplier shall be excused from their obligations for volume guarantees or service performance, respectively, under this Contract, and neither Party shall be liable to the other or any other person or entity for loss, damage, delay, mis-delivery or non-delivery of shipments transported pursuant to this Contract, resulting in whole or in part from any of the following:
| a. | When there occurs a State or Federal government-declared State of Emergency and / or instructions by a government agency that has actual or apparent powers or authority (including, but not limited to, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or the Transportation Security Administration (TSA)) to order airport closures or limitations on airport activity; |
| b. | When the failure to meet contractual obligations results in whole or in part from public enemies, terrorist acts, criminal acts of any person or entity, public authorities acting with actual or apparent authority (including U.S. Postal Inspectors), civil commotion, hazards incident to a state of war, national disruptions in transportation networks or operations (of any mode) of the aviation supplier, Postal Service, or any other entity, strikes, natural disasters, or disruption or failure of third-party communication and information systems; or |
| c. | When there exist any conditions that present a danger to each Party’s personnel. |
| d. | In every case the failure to perform must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the party claiming that its performance is excused. Each Party is required to continue and attempt to recommence performance to the greatest extent possible without delay. |
It is the responsibility of the Party asserting the Force Majeure event to formally declare that a Force Majeure event has taken place within twenty-four (24) hours of the event. The party declaring the Force Majeure event must document the circumstances of the event in writing to the Contracting Officer, who will review the information with the Manager, Air Transportation Operations, and relevant aviation supplier officials. In the absence of a formal request for relief under this clause, all appropriate volume guarantees and performance standards will remain in force. Except for the calculation of the service levels, nothing in this section shall relieve or excuse the aviation supplier of its service obligations. Subsequent to a Force Majeure event being declared, the declaring party must provide reasonable, written documentation with sufficient detail to support the declaration.
If, as a result of the occurrence of one of the foregoing events, the aviation supplier is excused from performance, and the Postal Service is excused from meeting its minimum volume commitment for the identified period, the Parties will meet to agree upon the pro-rata adjustments to be made.
On days where mail volume is withdrawn, withheld, or not transported under this provision, the minimum volume commitment for the identified period will be reduced for that period by the amount of that volume.
Frequency Adjustment
If, during the term of this contract, the Postal Service decides to reduce, in whole or in part, the number of delivery days, for any mail type it provides, to fewer than six (6) per week, the Postal Service reserves the right to effectuate a change in delivery days by adjusting the Statement of Work of this contract, including, but not limited to, the annual number of operating days or the frequency of service hereunder. The parties agree that such an adjustment does not constitute a partial termination of the contract, nor will it give rise to an equitable adjustment.
If the number of delivery days is reduced, in whole or in part, to five (5) and the Postal Service decides to reduce the number of operating days under this contract, in whole or in part, to five (5), the parties agree to reduce the Contract Volume Minimum calculation. The Contract Volume Minimum calculation
Page 68 of 100
Air Cargo Network
Contract ACN-13-FX
Part 3: Contract Clauses
will be reduced by the average daily volume for the previous twelve (12) months excluding the weeks of Peak associated with the removed day of service without adjustment to the tier structure, the contract rate, or be subject to any other price-related adjustment. The monies associated with the volume removed from the calculation will be eliminated.
If the number of delivery days is reduced to fewer than five (5), and the Postal Service decides to reduce the number of operating days under this contract, in whole or in part, to fewer than five (5), the parties will negotiate an equitable adjustment if necessary.
No later than 120 days prior to the effective date of such reduction in delivery days, the parties shall commence discussions as to how to implement the change. Within 90 days of such notice, the supplier must implement the changes outlined above.
Notices
Any notice, report, demand, acknowledgement or other communication which under the terms of this Contract or otherwise must be given or made by either Party, unless specifically otherwise provided in this Contract, shall be in the English language and in writing, and shall be given or made by express delivery service with proof of delivery, certified air mail (return receipt requested). The parties may also send a copy of the same communication through electronic mail, facsimile with acknowledgement of receipt/proof of receipt, or personal delivery. If a party sends a copy of the official correspondence by electronic mail or facsimile, the correspondence shall not be deemed received until the receiving party confirms receipt.
Such notice, report, demand, acknowledgement or other communication shall be deemed to have been given or made in the case of express delivery service with tracking and tracing capability on the date of signature of the proof of delivery, and in the case of certified mail on the fifth business day in the place of receipt after the date sent.
The notice address for the Postal Service shall be:
U.S. Postal Service
Air Transportation CMC
Attention: Manager
475 L’Enfant Plaza SW, Room 1P 650
Washington, DC 20260-0650
The notice address for the aviation supplier shall be:

Severability
| a. | If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Contract is held by a court or Board of competent jurisdiction or by a request, direction or indication of an agency or department of a Governmental Body having subject matter jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions shall continue in full force and effect unless the rights and obligations of the parties have been materially altered or abridged by such invalidation or unenforceability. |
| b. | If a material provision of this Contract is materially altered or abridged as the result of a final and binding order of a Governmental Body having subject matter jurisdiction, then the Postal Service and the aviation supplier will meet to negotiate in good faith to reach a mutually satisfactory modification to this Contract. If the Parties are unable to reach a mutually satisfactory resolution, then either Party may declare the negotiations to be at an impasse and the parties shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the provisions of this contract. |

Contract ACN-13-FX
Part 3: Contract Clauses
| c. | Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree to make their best efforts to oppose any changes requested by a Governmental Body to any material provision of this Contract. |
Third Party Governmental Delays
If, during the term of this contract, a governmental entity with subject matter jurisdiction enacts laws, promulgates regulations, or issues orders mandating that the aviation supplier screen mail dispatched for transportation by aircraft within the United States for bombs, explosives, or other hazardous materials, and aviation supplier does not have a method for otherwise complying at no additional cost to the Postal Service, either party may, at no cost to the other party, suspend performance under the contract during the period in which such screening is actually required to be accomplished.
Within fourteen (14) days of the enactment of any law, promulgation of any regulation, or issuance of any order referenced above, the parties shall commence negotiations in an attempt to modify this contract to address any adverse impacts and / or other concerns asserted by one or both parties that may arise as a result of additional screening requirements.
If the parties cannot agree upon such a modification within 180 days, or within such longer period as the parties may mutually agree, the contract and all orders hereunder may be terminated at no cost to either party.
Waiver of Breach
No waiver of breach of any of the provisions of this Contract shall be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of the same or any other provision.

Wage Determination
October 31, 2012
Due to the size and complexity of this solicitation, it is impracticable to attach all relevant wage determinations to the solicitation packet. In lieu of a physical attachment, the Postal Service has worked with the Department of Labor to provide instructions to potential contractors for accessing the wage determination(s) on the Department of Labor website. The instructions are as follows:
Current wage determinations can be found at www.wdol.gov. This is the official Department of Labor website from which to access wage determinations. To access wage determinations, enter the website and click “Selecting SCA WDs” under the column heading “Service Contract Act.” Use the drop down menu to select the state and county for the designated wage determination, and then click “Continue.” Answer “No” for the question “Were these services previously performed at this locality under an SCA-covered contract?” Answer “No” for the question “Are the contract services to be performed listed below as Non-Standard Services?” Click on the Printer Friendly Version for a full view and printable Wage Determination. Identify the SCA wage determination(s), including determination number, revision date, and state and counties that were used to determine that the rates offered are in complianceon Attachment 13: Service Contract Act Wage Determinations.* The revision numbers of the wage determinations listed in the solicitation index of wage determinations should be used in the comparisons. For all the identified SCA eligible labor categories, map the SCA equivalent labor category title (titles/descriptions available at http://www.wdol.gov. Click on the “library” link, then download the SCA Directory of Occupations, 5th Edition). Also identify the Wage Determination number that the labor categories in your offer are predicated. Note that the applicable revision number for all Wage Determination numbers is the revision number identified in the solicitation index of wage determinations. In those instances where the aviation supplier has a non-standard classification (a standard wage does not fit the work category) that requires a special SCA wage determination, the aviation supplier must contact the Postal Service Contracting Officer at:
Manager, Air Transportation CMC
475 L’ Enfant Plaza SW, Room 1P650
Washington, DC 20260-0650
Although the aviation supplier assumes sole responsibility to faithfully discharge all duties and obligations with regards to wage determinations imposed by the Department of Labor, the Postal Service will assist the aviation supplier upon the aviation supplier’s request, to the extent necessary, in selecting the appropriate wage determinations.
The aviation supplier should review the Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations to confirm whether the positions the aviation supplier wishes to offer fit into the currently published occupation titles under the wage determination. If the position will not fit into any of the currently published occupation titles, please review the instructions in the wage determination entitled “The process for preparing a conformance request.” In accordance with the Department of Labor instructions (that can be found at www.wdol.gov) in each wage determination, entitled Conformance Process, any class of service employee that is not listed therein and that is to be employed under the contract (i.e., the work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination) must be classified by the contractor so as to provide a reasonable relationship (i.e., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted classifications and the classifications listed in the wage determination. Such conformed classes of employees shall be paid the monetary wages and furnished the fringe benefits as are determined. Such conforming process shall be initiated by the contractor prior to the

Attachment 9: Wage Determination
performance of contract work by such unlisted class(es) of employees. The conformed classification, wage rate, and/or fringe benefits shall be retroactive to the commencement date of the contract.
* | Given the desire of the offerors to seek additional information from the Department of Labor regarding the applicability of the Service Contract Act to the contract(s) that may result from this solicitation, the completed submission ofAttachment 13: Service Contract Act Wage Determination may be delayed until a mutually agreeable date prior to contract award. As a condition of acceptance of the offeror’s proposal(s), the offeror must explicitly state that the proposed pricing will hold firm irrespective of any determination made by the Department of Labor. |

1.0 Supplier Eligibility
FedEx views the Postal Service Transportation Agreement – the current contract between FedEx and the Postal Service – as a strategic alliance providing the Postal Service with cost effective and reliable service while providing FedEx increased asset utilization.
Federal Express Corporation (FedEx), a wholly owned subsidiary of FedEx Corporation, submits this proposal in support of the United States Postal Service’s (Postal Service) request for proposal (RFP) number 5A-12-A-0024. This solicitation is for the purchase of air transportation and ancillary services for mail to and from destinations within the contiguous 48 states, and non-contiguous areas, including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. We have had the privilege of providing the same services over the past 12 years. As this proposal volume demonstrates, FedEx is fully capable of providing continued reliable service and is committed to continuing our history as a supportive business partner of the Postal Service going forward. Since 2001, the Postal Service has benefited from the operational efficiencies of our nationwide service in improving its on-time performance record.
Our proposal proves that we are the reliable, most cost effective, and dependable business partner for the Postal Service in support of this contract. FedEx was founded as an airline and operates the world’s largest, most capable fleet of cargo aircraft. This fleet amply meets the Postal Service’s aviation requirements with reliable and dependable service.
As PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) noted and the Postal Service presented in its January 7, 2001 “Justification for Noncompetitive Purchase with Federal Express Corporation” (“Justification”), FedEx “is uniquely” qualified to support the Postal Service as a sole source contractor for air transportation services of U.S. Mail. We remain uniquely qualified to provide the required Air Cargo Network (ACN) services going forward for the next 7 years.
1.1 14 CFR Part 121 Air Carrier Certification
Figure 1-1provides proof that FedEx meets the 14 CFR Part 121 Air Carrier Certification requirements. We are authorized to operate as an air carrier and conduct common carriage operations in accordance with the Federal Aviation Act of 1958.

1.2 Flight Origins and Destinations (Attachments 2, 3, 4)
FedEx will meet the Postal Service’s flight origin and destination requirements requested in Attachments 2, 3, and 4 of the RFP to transport mail on all flights and between all origins and destinations. Our response is included in Attachment 12, Tender and Delivery Time Commitment. As we have consistently shown in our 12 years of outstanding performance, we are fully capable of meeting the requirements.
1.3 Transport of Live Animals (DMM 601.9.3)
FedEx’s policy for transporting live animals is in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Domestic Mail Manual (DMM) 601.9.3, Live Animals. We have transported more than [ * ] pieces of live and perishable items over the past 12 months. We have a proven record of successfully handling the challenges of transporting “lives” ranging from baby chicks, to bees, to pandas.
1.4 Transport of Hazardous Material (DMM 601.10.0)
FedEx will transport hazardous materials (HAZMAT) for parcels that meet the air transportation requirements established in DMM 601.10.0 and other Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations. FedEx has accepted Postal Service Inaccessible Dangerous Goods (IDG) since October 2006.
Planned dangerous goods shipments from the Postal Service are IDG shipments only. Current acceptance procedures for all dangerous goods must be followed when receiving dangerous goods (DG) shipments from the Postal Service. All dangerous goods will be inspected by a dangerous goods specialist before the shipment can be accepted into the FedEx system. Operations will ensure that a dangerous goods specialist is available at the tender locations to inspect and accept dangerous goods tendered by the Postal Service.
1.5 Transport of Perishables (DMM 601.9.0)
FedEx will transport perishables in accordance with the provisions of DMM 601.9.0. Transporting perishables presents multiple challenges because of the special packaging and handling required. The packaging, handling, and transport equipment for perishable foods varies considerably, and this complicates loading decisions. The length of time a product will be in transit also affects loading decisions. FedEx will take every precaution to ensure that all of the transit requirements for the individual commodity are met for maximum shelf life.
1.6 Scanning and Data Exchange (Attachment 7)
Dispatch and Routing Tags
FedEx certifies that it is capable of scanning Postal Service bar-coded Dispatch & Routing (D&R) tags (Figure 1-2) that are Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)-compliant (pursuant to the guidelines set forth in Attachment 7 of the RFP) to facilitate the exchange of data with the Postal Service. Under the current contract, we scan on average more than [ * ] tags per day.

Bar codes ensure accurate
and timely data capture.
EDI Compliance
FedEx will transmit and receive status and operational data according to the EDI standards specified in the solicitation, Attachment 7, Electronic Data Interchange Service Requirements. Additionally, we will transmit payment information using the Attachment 7 standards for financial data. We will use the standards shown inFigure 1-3 for transactions of volume and relevant scans with the Postal Service.

RESDIT | | To receive status information at the handling unit level for domestic mail shipments. |
INVOIC ADV | | Message claiming payment for goods and services supplied under agreed upon conditions; serves also as specification for Debit Note and Credit Note messages. Postal Service implementation is to provide invoice advice to its transport providers of the items, which comprise amounts payable for transportation services. |
CLAIMS | | Message claiming payment for goods and services supplied under agreed-upon conditions; serves also as specification for Debit Note and Credit Note messages. Postal Service implementation is to provide mechanism for its transport providers to report claims for the mail handling items which comprise amounts payable for transportation services. |
EDI based on UN/EDIFACT format is technology that is ideal for the high volume of transactions that will be processed on this contract. FedEx owns the world’s largest private digitized network, FedExNet®, that allows us to easily accommodate large data streams. We will use FedExNet®, a proprietary private value-added network (VAN) for business-to-business data exchange. We have successfully used the FedExNet® VAN for the Postal Service since 2001 to transmit and receive operational and status data, as well as payment data. We are familiar with the Attachment 7 EDI requirements and standards as we have used CARDIT and RESDIT protocols extensively since 2005 for international postal customers.
We will transmit the status and operational data, as well as payment data, over the VAN, as shown inFigure 1-4. Primary files on the FedEx side reside in the Scanning Database which stores and transmits scans and service files (shown as SRS, Summary Reporting System) and the Transportation Agreement Revenue Database which stores invoice and reconciliation files (shown as REV). With EDI, Postal Service will receive the invoice and reconciliation data from FedEx via a secure mailbox on FedEx Net®.

Figure 1-4. Postal Service-FedEx EDI Network Highlights
FedEx has the experience and infrastructure to fully execute Postal Service–accepted EDI standards.
FedEx will transmit and receive status and operational data according to the EDI standards as required in the solicitation, Attachment 7, Electronic Data Interchange Service Requirements. Additionally, we will transmit payment information using the Attachment 7 standards for financial data. Available data will be transmitted at 15-minute intervals in the appropriate EDI format.

2.0 Supplier Capability
As one of the most reliable, dependable airlines, FedEx has the largest air cargo fleet in the world, with a record of successfully supporting the Postal Service since 2001. We have ample capabilities and resources to meet or exceed the requirements of this contract.
FedEx will continue to offer the Postal Service best-in-class mail solutions that include reliable service, advanced technology, operational strength, and network efficiency. As the world’s largest express transportation company, FedEx offers transportation solutions to 100% of the U.S. population. Within the FedEx corporate culture, our main focus is on each customer’s requirements and how we can help improve customer operational efficiencies. Our services and programs help the Postal Service optimize and streamline U.S. domestic transportation processes in the short term and long term through cooperative continuous improvement projects.
FedEx’s highest priority is to focus on our customers. Our founder, Frederick W. Smith, began FedEx in 1973 with several concepts relatively new to the business world. One of these concepts introduced a corporate culture that embraced and focused – one hundred percent – on the unique needs of each of our customers. This corporate culture is still embedded in each activity that every FedEx employee performs and for which they are trained. In the same way, innovation, performance, and customer satisfaction are at the forefront of the Postal Service’s objectives. FedEx has also embraced these strategic objectives and has demonstrated an ongoing determination to assist the Postal Service in optimizing and streamlining its network. A few of our industry-recognized awards are highlighted inFigure 2-1. Our record of reliability has earned FedEx the reputation as one of the “World’s Most Admired Companies” (Fortune magazine). In 2012, FedEx ranked 6th in theFortune list – the 11th consecutive year that we have been ranked in the top 20 on the list.

Figure 2-1. FedEx Has Received Many Awards
We have consistently won awards across all areas of our company’s performance.
FedEx has all the resources required to more than adequately perform the work required under the Postal Service’s ACN solicitation. As the long-time contractor of similar services for the Postal Service, FedEx has the capability to continue operations on the effective date of award as required by the delivery schedule.
The FedEx outstanding differentiators for the Postal Service are summarized inFigure 2-2. Our superior capabilities are further validated and supported by the certification of our Quality Management System to the International Organization for Standards (ISO) 9001:2008 standard and our recognition as a recipient of the prestigious Malcolm Baldrige Quality Award – we were the first service organization to win this award.

FedEx is recognized for the ability of our network to adapt to changing Postal Service needs and global trends. We perform ongoing evaluation of our extensive flight and route schedules at all times of the year to achieve flexibility to meet the needs of the Postal Service and to address the changing needs of the marketplace. The FedEx Postal Transportation Management Department (PTM) coordinates with FedEx’s Air Ground Freight Service (AGFS), which operates the air cargo network, and with our Global Network Planning (GNP) and Global Operations Control Center (GOCC), which plan and manage flight operations, including the movement of Postal Service cargo. The FedEx aviation network also has extensive redundancy and contingency planning that draws on our aviation resources of jet aircraft, feeder aircraft, 3 U.S. domestic major sort locations (5 domestic major sort locations for the Night Network), [ * ] FedEx-staffed ramp locations furnished with appropriate cargo handling equipment, and multiple data centers.
FedEx has an in-house Meteorology Department with a current staff of [ * ] whose average experience is more than [ * ] years. This department monitors terminal forecasts for domestic destinations and alternate airports to support flight operations to meet Postal Service operational needs. The Meteorology Department, created in 1986, has issued guidance on en-route hazardous weather conditions, such as the potential for icing, turbulence, and other meteorological conditions that may adversely impact daily operations. This accurate, timely data provides an advantage that enables FedEx to anticipate routing changes and make adjustments, thereby avoiding or minimizing impacts on flight schedules.

2.2.2 Fuel Efficiency of Air Fleet
Our fuel efficiency, shown inFigure 2-5, will continue to improve as a result of our aircraft modernization plan and strategic utilization of the air transport fleets.
2.2.3 Aircraft Modernization Plan
Our plan to replace our older aircraft in the current fleet with 20% more fuel-efficient and green airplanes by 2020 is ahead of schedule. After only 6 years of a 15-year plan, we have completed 69% of our goal to reduce aircraft emissions intensity by 20% by 2020. Because we are ahead of the schedule, we have raised the standards so that our goal is to now reduce aircraft emissions intensity by 30% by 2020. Because we are committed to reducing aircraft emissions and increasing fuel efficiency, we invested $4 billion in capital expenditures, about half related to modernizing the air fleet during FY 12.

Our strategy to“compete collectively, operate independently, manage collaboratively” provides flexibility in sizing our operating companies to align with varying macro-economic conditions and customer demand for the market segments in which they operate, allowing us to leverage and manage change. We use our flexibility to accommodate changing conditions in the domestic and global economy. For example, in May 2012, we decided to retire from service 24 aircraft and related engines. The decision to retire these aircraft will better align our U.S. domestic air network capacity to match current and anticipated shipment volumes. FedEx is also shortening the depreciable lives of additional aircraft and related engines to accelerate the retirement of selected aircraft models.
Figure 2-6 presents our projections of each aircraft type at the end of our fiscal year over the next 7 years. We have agreed to purchase 46 new B767F aircraft, with the first three arriving in FY 14. The B767Fs were selected to reduce fuel and maintenance costs, as we continue to improve the efficiency and technology of our aircraft fleet.

Figure 2-7. FedEx Air Transport Mail Delivery Service Process
FedEx has developed a series of mature processes to move air cargo from origin to destination, meeting
the contractual tender times.
FedEx leads the industry in scanning and tracking technology. Packages typically are scanned during our pickup, sort, and delivery processes by trained handlers and by automated overhead scanners and scanning systems. Scanning enables FedEx and the Postal Service to track the movement of packages from pickup to delivery for an added level of security. Using a variety of wireless data collection devices, we scan package bar codes at each hand-off point, capturing a variety of shipment information:
| | | | |
• Dispatch and routing number • Origin/destination location information | | • Ship date • Exception scans | | • Type of service • Proof of delivery. |
2.4 Integrity and Business Ethics Record
FedEx has a longstanding commitment to compliance with applicable laws and regulations wherever we operate, striving to maintain a high standard of business and personal ethics. Every FedEx employee, officer, and director is required to comply with the policies set forth in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. FedEx contractors and global service participants performing services on behalf of FedEx or operating under the FedEx brand name also comply with those portions of the code that apply to them. Our officers, directors, and managers have the additional responsibility of promoting the principles set forth in this code and fostering a culture in which ethical conduct is recognized, valued, and exhibited by all team members. Our commitment to doing the right thing depends on the ability to set the proper tone and to address suspected violations promptly with care and respect. All senior managers and all members of management above senior manager have to annually recertify under our Code of Business Conduct Questionnaire.
We also have an independent Board of Directors committed to the highest quality of corporate governance. During the past few years, we have added a number of highly qualified, independent directors to the Board, includingR. Brad Martin, the former CEO of Saks Incorporated, andJoshua Cooper Ramo, Vice Chairman of Kissinger Associates, Inc. The Board has taken significant steps to enhance its accountability to stockholders in recent years. For example, in 2012, stockholders approved our proposal to amend the FedEx certificate of incorporation to allow holders of 20 percent or more of FedEx common stock the right to call special meetings of stockholders. The Board also recently adopted a “lead independent director” governance structure.
Our Board of Directors periodically reviews all aspects of our governance policies and practices, including our Corporate Governance Guidelines and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, in light of best practices, and makes whatever changes are necessary to further our longstanding commitment to the highest standards of corporate governance. The Guidelines and the Code, which apply to all of our directors, officers, and employees, including our principal executive officer and senior financial officers, are available in the Corporate Governance section of the Investor Relations page of our website atinvestors.fedex.com. We post any amendment to, or waiver from, the provisions of the Code to the extent that such disclosure is required, on our website in the corporate governance section of the Investor Relations page.

2.5.2 Experience
In 2000 the Postal Service approached FedEx to help design a solution to the problems in its Transportation Network. Rising cost and unacceptable service levels were impairing the growth of Priority and Express Mail. Over the following year, FedEx and the Postal Service jointly designed and developed a Shared Network system. The system was implemented in August 2001 and was projected to save the Postal Service in excess of [ * ] dollars over the [ * ] and drastically improve service. The network increased the number of locations served on both Day and Night Networks. [ * ].
2.5.3 Accounting and Operational Controls
FedEx has developed a proprietary system for tracking volume and invoicing specifically for the Postal Service. FedEx also has an online communication system for reporting operational updates and status, providing accurate and timely data. Additional information for operational controls can be found in Section 3.0 of this volume. During the course of our current Postal Service Transportation Agreement Contract, we have never had an accounting irregularity.
As a publicly traded corporation, FedEx’s internal controls over financial reporting are audited annually by Ernst & Young to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations and accounting standards. Our latest audit was completed on May 31, 2012. FedEx’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The results of the annual audit can be found in our 2012 Annual Report; no exceptions were noted. PTM has also gone through several internal audits and has received an Exceptional rating from our Internal Audit Department.
2.5.4 Technical Skills
FedEx employs staff with varying skills and qualifications from IT analysts, to industrial and mechanical engineers, to on-site maintenance mechanics, to package handlers. Each of our ramp and hub locations operates as a “mini-hub” in that it has all the required IT infrastructure and staff to run the facility, which requires a vast number of skills. The following are a few areas of expertise necessary for successful execution of this contract:
• | | Pilots. We have more than [ * ] pilots, each with a minimum of [ * ] hours total fixed-wing time as pilot-in-command (PIC).

• | | Engineers.PTM primarily consists of engineers dedicated to support the day-to-day needs of the Postal Service. These engineers are strategically placed around the country and assigned to specific Postal Areas. |
2.5.5 Production and Property Controls
FedEx has the capability of handling Day Network and Night Network deliveries. FedEx has used Surface Air Management System (SAMS) equipment at our hubs since 2002 and has successfully maintained and controlled this equipment. We will abide by the Clause 2-11 of the solicitation in the acceptance, maintenance, tracking, and reporting of Postal Service property.
2.6 Financial Condition
FedEx Corporation, of which FedEx Express is a wholly owned subsidiary, has been in operation since 1973. For FY 12, FedEx Corporation reported the following results:
• | | Revenue of $42.6 billion, up 9% from $39.3 billion the previous year |
• | | Operating income of $3.19 billion, up 34% from $2.38 billion last year |
• | | Net income of $2.03 billion, up 40% from last year’s $1.45 billion |
• | | Earnings per share of $6.41, up from $4.57 per share a year ago. |
FedEx has demonstrated a disciplined approach to financial performance. We have been, and will continue to be responsive to changing economic and business conditions. Capital spending for FY 12 was $4.0 billion, of which $1.9 billion was for investments in aircraft and related equipment.

3.0 Management Plan
FedEx will successfully manage the ACN contract by leveraging its knowledge and understanding of the Postal Service’s mission, operations, culture, and technology requirements.
FedEx recognizes that to be successful we must have a management plan that addresses normal daily operations and is capable of handling unscheduled and unexpected events. Updates to this plan will be provided to the Contracting Officer within 10 days of any changes made by the Vice President of PTM. At least annually, FedEx will review and verify for the Postal Service that it has a current management plan. In addition to the day-to-day key personnel, FedEx has and will train all employees to a level of knowledge and familiarity to ensure that normal operations and all contingency plans will be exercised without delay to address the unexpected or unscheduled events in accordance with the training plan.
3.1 Daily Operations Management Plan
FedEx is one of the 5 largest airlines in the world and it is one of the most reliable. This means that we have the resources to meet all Postal Service aviation requirements. We have the people, processes, and tools to meet all the management requirements of this solicitation. Volume 2 of this response discusses the contingency plans in place to meet any issues.
3.1.1 Late Arriving Aircraft and Trucks (Originating and Destinating)
Ability to Conduct Two Operations – Originating and Destinating
In the event of late arriving aircraft and trucks, FedEx will have the ability to perform origin and destination services simultaneously, if necessary. FedEx conducts and will continue, 2 daily operations, the day (Tuesday–Saturday) and the night (Monday–Friday). The day service is primarily for deferred services, Priority Mail, and First Class Mail. The night service is primarily for expedited services and Express Mail. Since FedEx has the largest overnight network in the world, we have available capacity that can be utilized for the movement of Postal Service shipments as necessary during the day, and we have the ability to alter the movement and distribution of services within our multi-hub network. We build redundancy into our operations to provide maximum flexibility. FedEx has the manpower and equipment at our ramps and hubs to recover late arriving aircraft and trucks. We can also divert aircraft to alternate hub locations, if that contingency proves necessary.
3.1.2 Early Arriving Aircraft and Trucks
For any aircraft or truck that arrives early, FedEx will offload, stage, and secure the freight, and then notify the Terminal Handling Service (THS). We will manage the entire network to operate on time.
3.1.3 Mail Arriving Out of Normal Sequence
For mail arriving out of sequence, we will make adjustments to accommodate it. This involves alerting the Postal Service of abnormal or delayed arrivals. FedEx can adjust work schedules according to operational requirements to maximize service to our customers.
3.1.4 Trucks Not On-Site for Dispatch
FedEx Express operates approximately 52,400 ground transport vehicles including pickup and delivery vans, larger trucks called container transport vehicles, and over-the-road tractors and trailers. These vehicles are strategically located at service points across the network to support volumes and service delivery requirements and are repositioned to meet mail service delivery schedules.

3.1.5 Inclement Weather During Operations
FedEx has a superior record in meeting delivery schedules during inclement weather. To proactively address disruptions caused by weather, FedEx employs on-staff meteorologists whose function is to monitor weather conditions. The FedEx Meteorology Department has been an in-house function since 1986 with a current staff of [ * ] whose average experience is more than [ * ] years. Our staff has been certified and approved by the FAA to use the Enhanced Weather Information Systems (EWINS) as the primary source of forecasts in support of trunk aircraft operations worldwide. The staff’s experiences range from various military branches, the National Weather Service, and the private sector to provide a well-rounded understanding of all types of weather disruptions that could impact the FedEx operating system.
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720g83k72.jpg)
FedEx Meteorology supports flight operations, primarily by issuing and monitoring terminal forecasts for domestic destinations, alternate airports, and key international locations. Meteorologists also provide guidance on en-route hazardous weather conditions such as the potential for icing, turbulence, and other meteorological conditions, which may adversely impact daily operations. Personnel also provide weather support and briefings to FedEx senior management in support of contingency operations worldwide including hurricanes and typhoons, winter weather events, the spread of hazardous volcanic ash, widespread flooding that affects ground operations and FedEx locations or assets, and solar weather events that could be harmful to crews flying long-haul routes at high latitudes. Additional information is provided in Volume 2, Section 2.2.1.
3.1.6 Protection of Mail During Inclement Weather
FedEx protects each shipment from the weather by using containers to transport small packages to the hubs and during loading and unloading of the aircraft. Plastic covers are used on the skidded freight to protect packages against weather damage. FedEx also uses plastic covers for containers as needed in inclement weather.
FedEx believes preparation is the key to success in irregular operations. Our Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) preparation is well known and respected in the BCDR community. FedEx is a member of the Supply Chain Risk Leadership Counsel and is an integral part of many local, state, and Federal BCDR planning groups around the United States. We lend our expertise in disaster preparation and contingency execution to many of our customers and suppliers to assist them in designing the best business resiliency plans possible.
3.1.7 Labor Actions
[ * ]
3.1.8 Inadequate Staffing
FedEx will meet surge demands of all of our customers including the Postal Service, particularly during peak periods or periods of inclement weather, natural disasters, or when customers demand increases. We have a reserve pool of employees who are on standby to cover all positions. We have more than [ * ] pilots which allows us to meet Peak Week and holiday requirements.

FedEx has designed a functional organization to matrix across all areas. FedEx will move employees from one location to another as needed to supplement existing staffing loads or requirements within a facility as we have done for the Postal Service over the life of the current contract. Our cross-training programs allow us this flexibility, as one employee can assume the responsibilities of another. The flexibility of our non-union workforce allows FedEx to move employees between functions as the workload demands it.
3.1.9 Inability to Complete All Loading
The FedEx monthly operating plan provides staffing to meet all tender requirements. We will call staff from other shifts and locations to meet all Postal Service loading requirements as necessary. We also maintain reserve equipment for deployment as needed for contingencies. We have always been able to complete all loading for the Postal Service.
3.1.10 Overflow Mail
FedEx has provided the Postal Service with 5% flex under the existing agreement and will continue to do so in our proposed operating plan for the day network and 20% flex for the night network. Volume above these levels is moved on a space-available basis. At the FedEx hub, we will provide adequate lift and will ensure all alternate movements are coordinated between the Postal Service and PTM. FedEx provides priority boarding for all postal products ahead of all FedEx domestic, non-specialty products.
3.1.11 Less Mail Transportation Equipment (MTE) Than Required
Since FedEx is not bidding the Terminal Handling Service function, we will depend upon the Postal Service to provide the THS. FedEx will contact the Postal Service for additional MTEs and will loose-load or palletize as required by the Postal Service’s operation plan.
3.1.12 Damaged/Non Airworthy Containers
FedEx has well-documented procedures for assessing damage and determining the airworthiness of containers (e.g., unit load device, ULD) in our system. ULDs are subject to primary and secondary inspections according to FedEx operating procedures. We use an “Airworthy ULD Inspection Checklist” that has been developed to provide all personnel working with ULDs a set of criteria for determining whether a ULD is airworthy. FedEx will provide these procedures and training support to the THS to minimize the loading of non-airworthy containers.
If a damaged ULD is found before the container is loaded, FedEx will provide a replacement container. If the damaged ULD is found after the container is loaded, FedEx will trans-load shipments to another airworthy container. FedEx also retains a staging lot of ULD reserves at our major sort and ramp locations for use during volume surges within our network (i.e., peak season).
3.1.13 Damaged Surface Containers
If a FedEx surface container is damaged, FedEx will provide a replacement or notify the Postal Service or the THS provider. We routinely have reserve ULDs that we can access as a contingency. FedEx routinely provides emergency use of our equipment when the THS provider has experienced an equipment failure and cannot recover in time. This occurs multiple times per year and FedEx has been able to provide the necessary equipment without disruption.
3.1.14 Damaged or Non-Labeled Mail
If a package is damaged, it will be repackaged according to Postal Service guidelines. When a package is not labeled or the label is damaged, the Postal Service declares a contingency for unassigned mail. This process is followed for any amount of unlabeled mail tendered by the Postal Service to FedEx (even one piece). These procedures are followed to ensure that the mail volume is directed to the proper labeling operation and does not interfere with normal sort operations.

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 November 6, 2012 | | ![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720fedex_logo.jpg) |
• | | The Postal Service will contact FedEx ramp personnel to declare a mail contingency |
• | | The Postal Service will separate labeled from unlabeled mail in the tender process |
• | | FedEx will designate, on flight reports, which position(s) have unlabeled mail in the remarks for each container |
• | | The ULDs containing unlabeled mail will be taken to the exception area and labeled via SAMS |
Re-labeling is an example of our commitment to the Postal Service. In August 2002, the Postal Service approached FedEx requesting that we take over the re-labeling function at the Memphis hub. Since FedEx has assumed responsibility for relabeling, most if not all pieces move out the same day that they arrive in the sort. FedEx re-labels approximately [ * ] pieces per day on a non-contingency day. Approximately [ * ] times per month the Postal Service will declare a contingency (e.g., if its SAMS equipment is down in the local market) and the unlabeled handling units are sent to the Memphis hub where FedEx labels the mail. In these situations, we label between [ * ] and [ * ] handling units of mail and reintroduce them back to the network, thereby allowing the Postal Service to meet mail delivery service for their customers.
3.1.15 Plan and Schedule Changes
Plan changes are coordinated through PTM following the planning schedule, which is defined in the Network Operating Plan sections of Volume 2. In addition, FedEx works with the Postal Service to accommodate last minute modifications to the volume requests. Tactical schedule deviations for volume, maintenance, weather-related, or other disruptions to service are handled through the FedEx Global Operations Control Center (GOCC). Please see the Contingency Plan section in Volume 2 for more information.
3.1.16 Loose Load Mail
FedEx handles loose-loaded mail daily per the planning template to meet the local requirements for each Postal Service market. FedEx also accepts loose-loaded trailers.
3.1.17 HAZMAT – Acceptable and Non-acceptable Pieces
FedEx currently accepts HAZMAT in accordance with the DMM 601.10.0 procedures. Details of the FedEx procedures can be found in Volume 2, Section 1.12.4. We have been handling HAZMAT materials since 2006 and work well with the Postal Service in handling a volume of more than [ * ] shipments per year. We also work with the Department of Transportation’s and the International Air Transport Association’s rules and regulations on handling HAZMAT pieces. We have routinely been handling acceptable pieces and have procedures in place to handle any non-acceptable pieces with the Postal Service.

3.1.18 Handling and Staging of Live Animals
FedEx has transported live animal shipments through the air and truck network for the Postal Service since October 2006. As one example of how live animals are handled through the air network, we developed operating policy R2-55-15-2 – Postal Service Mail Live Animal Handling and exception Procedures – for our aircraft ramp operations. This document establishes the practices currently used by the Postal Service and is the result of our collaboration with the Postal Service. It is available upon request. As shown inFigure 3-1, we are equipped to transport a wide variety of animals from pandas to newly hatched chicks and even bees.
3.1.19 | Assisting Aviation Supplier in Container Positioning |
FedEx will assist the Postal Service or THS provider in on-loading and off-loading containers to and from dollies and trucks.
3.1.20 | Assisting Aviation Supplier in Maintaining Open Lines of Communication |
FedEx will maintain open communication with the Postal Service, the THS providers, and other aviation suppliers. Depending on the operations, we will have continual, on-going operational dialogues at the quarterly performance management meetings. We are receptive to additional suggestions to improve our communications. We are committed to continuously improving communications between the Postal Service and FedEx and have demonstrated that commitment in the past.

3.2 Key Personnel
The FedEx PTM organization has been in place since the inception of the program. As depicted inFigure 2-8,Paul Herron andRon Stevens will serve as key personnel for this contract and have been managing our Postal Service contracts since 2001. They routinely communicate with Postal Service stakeholders on all matters pertaining to conformance with contract requirements in order to meet our service delivery performance goals.
Paul Herron, Vice President, Postal Transportation Management
Paul was part of the original FedEx team that, along with the Postal Service, developed the Shared Network Transportation Agreement. He has led the FedEx Postal department since its inception and is responsible for all FedEx Postal alliances. In this role he interfaces with senior postal executives and has presented to the Board of Governors on a number of occasions. Paul is a 24-year FedEx employee with experience in strategic planning, finance, system form, air operations, and customer engineering. Paul holds an MBA from the University of Tennessee.
Ron D. Stevens, Managing Director, Postal Transportation Management
Ron was responsible for establishing the PTM in 2001. Ron was a member of the negotiating team for the original contract, the current contract negotiated in 2006, five addenda since 2001, and the Drop Box program renewal in 2006. Ron was responsible for the rollout of Global Express Guaranteed (GXG) (our co-branded international product with the Postal Service) which included developing a process to address all service and billing issues related to GXG.
Ron has 26 years of experience with FedEx and has worked in operations and engineering. Ron earned a B.A. Degree in business administration from Columbia State University. Ron has served as a member of the IATA Airmail Panel since 2007 representing FedEx on issues related to the movement of international mail.
FedEx believes that our ongoing operational partnership with the U.S. Postal Service brings significant advantages to a renewal contract for the Air Cargo Network. These FedEx key personnel demonstrate their dedication to both FedEx and the Postal Service through their long-term involvement and continued commitment to supporting the Postal Service.
3.3 Training of Personnel
As we state in Volume 2 of this response, contingency situations such as challenges from blizzards to hurricanes are a way of life for FedEx employees. At any given moment, our staff has to be prepared to respond to contingencies, implement proven plans, and continue service delivery to our customers. Our employees, from the GOCC contingency planners and managers to the PTM management team to the ramp staff at each FedEx airport location, are trained in dealing with events and circumstances outside of their control. Besides initial and annual recurring training on the contingency plan and specific planning and response actions of each FedEx airport location, employees also receive additional training when the contingency plan is revised or local procedures are updated. Training is required for all employees ranging from aircraft pilots, mechanics, general support, IT, environmental health and safety, and logistical staff.
Training records are maintained in employee personnel records and include training received, test scores, and certifications. For example, training for handlers includes safety, dangerous goods, proper T-stacking methods/container loading, ULD inspection, re-wrap of damaged packages, and container close-out slips.
3.4 Updates to Management Plan
The Vice President of PTM will submit any changes to this plan to the Postal Service Contracting Officer within 10 calendar days. Any changes which impact delivery will be made as well. We will also review any major changes to this plan that are impacted by the Contingency Plan in Volume 2. FedEx will update the management plan as required and incorporate any appropriate changes into our training program that will be sent to our key personnel. At least annually, we will review and verify with the Postal Service to keep our management plan current.

4.0 Past Performance
FedEx is the only company that can show past performance examples demonstrating our proven capabilities to support a contract of this size, scope, and complexity.
FedEx has the largest air cargo fleet and a long history of past performance with the Postal Service. We reach all points and will meet tender and delivery times contained in Attachment 12. This history is steeped in many collaboration efforts to meet the Postal Service mission that can be found in Section 101(a) of Title 39 of the U.S. Code, also known as the Postal Reorganization Act, which states:
“The Postal Service shall have as its basic function the obligation to provide postal services to bind the Nation together through the personal, educational, literary, and business correspondence of the people. It shall provide prompt, reliable, and efficient services to patrons in all areas and shall render postal services to all communities.”
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720g40b83.jpg)
It is through an understanding of this mission that FedEx has worked tirelessly in collaboration with the Postal Service to meet all delivery requirements. No other cargo air carrier has the benefit of this long and efficient operational experience with the Postal Service, where schedules and tender times were optimized and excessive costs were eliminated from the program. We currently hold two Postal Service contracts: the FedEx–Postal Service Transportation Agreement and the Global Express Guaranteed Agreement. Summaries of these contracts are found in Section 4.4 of this volume.
FedEx services Fortune 500 companies and worldwide industry leaders with high-volume shipping and delivery requirements. However, our Postal Service Agreement contracts dwarf all other customers’ requirements due to the extremely high volume of mail. We provide transportation solutions to the world’s top companies in more than 220 countries and territories. We also hold several Department of Defense (DoD) contracts for similar mail transport through both air and ground methods. For most of our commercial clients, we hold confidentiality agreements to protect the sensitive nature of our business relationships, so we are not able to disclose their names and the details of their products or services. Our customers consider the use of FedEx services to be a competitive advantage and have not granted legal permission to disclose details about our relationship; however, a summary of our past performance on non-Postal Service clients is shown in Section 4.5 of this volume.Figure 4-1provides a snapshot of our project summaries for evaluation.

4.1 Record of Conformance to Contract Requirements
FedEx has met all contractual requirements for meeting Service Level Agreements (SLAs), delivery, schedule, reporting, and communication on all of our contracts for both Postal Service and non-Postal customers. FedEx was the Postal Service’s largest supplier for FY 11, as it has been for 9 straight years. FedEx has not been suspended, debarred, or otherwise declared ineligible to perform on any Federal contract.
4.2 Record of FedEx On-Time Performance
FedEx has, and will continue to meet and exceed our delivery times for Postal Service and non-Postal customers. We are able to accomplish this through the size of our fleet, but also through technological advances in logistics management and well developed contingency plans that are detailed in Volume 2 of this proposal.
Each of our Postal Service and non-Postal clients has unique performance requirements. While one client may have a requirement for delivery within 3 days of tender, others require delivery by 10:30 the following morning. The differences between delivery commitments make it impossible to directly compare service performance between customers. The Postal Service is the only customer for whom delivery expectation is on the same day as tender for its deferred product. When possible, we have included our on-time delivery performance for these contracts in our summaries in Section 4.5.
Figure 4-2and Figure 4-3 show our on-time performance rates for the current Transportation Agreement and the Global Express Guaranteed (GXG) Agreement.
[ * ]
4.3 Established Productive Business Relations
One of the key success factors in any business relationship is communication. With all of our customers, we have set up a range of processes to ensure the most effective communication, reporting, and exchange of operational, financial, performance, and administrative information. For our Postal Service contracts, FedEx communicates daily via electronic reports, face-to-face meetings, and with Postal Service on-site personnel. FedEx uses EDI 214, Version 4010, for the electronic transmission of information.

We are continually evaluating and improving our processes and service offerings to meet client needs. FedEx is a leading innovator in the overnight delivery business because we reward and motivate our team members to deliver on time. We also encourage and implement recommendations from our clients on how to improve our service delivery through routine collection of customer satisfaction data.
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720g34o39.jpg)
Since our founding in 1973, we have operated with a goal of 100% customer satisfaction. Due to our rigorous continuous process improvement program, we are constantly assessing the root cause and reason when we miss this delivery performance metric. That is why we created the Hierarchy of Horrors and the Service Quality Index (SQI). This is a system of weighted performance indicators that measure the functions of critical importance to the customer based on the degree of customer aggravation.Figure 4-4 shows the item description and its associated weight. The total number of “average daily failure points” is multiplied by that component’s weight to calculate the SQI.
4.3.1 Cooperation and Commitment to Customer Satisfaction
[ * ]
4.3.2 Governance and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
FedEx operates under the tenets of our mission statement, which focuses on our customer service:
FedEx Corporation will produce superior financial returns for its shareowners by providing high value-added logistics, transportation and related information services through focused operating companies. Customer requirements will be met in the highest quality manner appropriate to each market segment served. FedEx Corporation will strive to develop mutually rewarding relationships with its employees, partners and suppliers. Safety will be the first consideration in all operations. Corporate activities will be conducted to the highest ethical and professional standards.
Our Board of Directors oversees our corporate governance to ensure our policies and practices, including our Corporate Governance Guidelines and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, in light of best practices, and makes whatever changes are necessary to further our longstanding commitment to the highest standards of corporate governance. FedEx policies, manuals, and handbooks are important components of our overall compliance and ethics program, and they work in conjunction with the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. If an employee has reason to believe that a legal or ethical violation has occurred, it is his or her duty to report it, and our policies forbid any form of retaliation. Our commitment to doing the right thing depends on our ability to set the proper tone and to address suspected violations promptly with care and respect.
The unique FedEx operating strategy works seamlessly – and simultaneously – on three levels:
• | | Operate independently by focusing on our independent networks to meet distinct customer needs. |
• | | Compete collectively by standing as one brand worldwide and speaking with one voice. |
• | | Manage collaboratively by working together to sustain loyal relationships with our workforce, customers, and investors. |

5.0 Security Plan
Through FedEx’s extensive human-intelligence network, we are keenly qualified not only to recognize, but to be proactive in addressing potentially dangerous activity.
FedEx has a very robust security organization that takes every reasonable precaution to protect the mail. This security starts when we take possession of the mail and ends when the mail is tendered to the Postal Service or THS. Our security organization (Section 5.1) helps to ensure the security of physical mail, information, and persons. Upon contract award, FedEx will work with the Postal Service to review and approve the security plan for implementation across the FedEx Regions as required by the contract. This plan, in compliance with Provision 4-10 of the RFP, will replace our current security plan from Section F of our Postal Contract Number 07-0454, which addresses all current points in addition to security training procedures for employees (Section 5.6).
This security plan will include a statement of principles that will be used by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service (“Inspection Service”) and FedEx to address U.S. Mail investigations and security matters related to this contract (“the Agreement”) between FedEx and the Postal Service. The statement of principles is not intended to be all-inclusive, but is designed to provide a broad framework that will allow flexibility for the parties to accomplish their respective security and investigative missions. In no event will the statement of principles be construed as an expansion of FedEx’s obligations or the Inspection Service’s authority under any applicable law or regulation, or expand either party’s rights or obligations under the Agreement. For purposes of the statement of principles, the term “mail” shall mean any item that is tendered to the aviation supplier by the Postal Service for transportation. The statement of principles is based on open communication and cooperation between the parties at each organizational level, to the fullest extent possible in postal-related matters.

by third parties for records maintained in this system will be processed in accordance with requirements of the Privacy Act. All public disclosures of investigations information, including media requests or press releases, will be coordinated between the Inspection Service and FedEx Media Relations in accordance with a mutually agreed communications plan.
5.2.10 Noninterference
It is our understanding that the Inspection Service agrees that in the exercise of its rights under this protocol it will not disrupt or interfere with FedEx operations.
5.2.11 Modifications
FedEx will review this plan annually and will make modifications based on the mutual agreement of FedEx and the Inspection Service.
5.3 Conformance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and Local Airport Authority
FedEx complies with all security requirements for personnel, facilities, and program security as stated in the RFP. We are cognizant of the FAA, TSA, and local airport authority rules and will continually work with these organizations to ensure compliance with the regulations. Our security plan follows the vision of TSA’s Office of Security Policy and Industry Engagement Air Cargo Division for a layered solution designed to protect against security breaches, by using a combination of process along with information and technology-based solutions, while preserving the integrity of the mail supply chain against threats to air cargo security.
FedEx will continue to meet with FAA and TSA on security matters that affect our aircraft when not at the airport. In March 2011, we met with TSA to discuss new security protocols developed in conjunction with U.S. intelligence authorities and other air carriers on rules specifically for cargo planes carrying only mail, as requested by shippers such as the Postal Service. These new protocols were issued based on TSA Security Directive and Emergency Amendment in the wake of the plot to attack U.S. air cargo originating from Yemen in October 2010.
5.4 Protection and Safeguard of U.S. Mails
Except as otherwise permitted by law or provided herein, mail, while in the custody of FedEx, or our employees or agents, will not be opened, searched, or seized unless expressly authorized by a Postal Inspector. In situations where other law enforcement agencies request access to the mail, a properly executed Federal search warrant is required. FedEx shall attempt to notify a Postal Inspector of any warrants served for mail in the custody of FedEx before coordinating the warrant execution.
Address information from the mail in the custody and control of FedEx may only be recorded or disclosed to another law enforcement or government agency upon expressed approval by a Postal Service Inspector, except as required for operational purposes regarding the sorts and transportation of the mail. FedEx shall notify a Postal Inspector of all requests from law enforcement for such information.
In situations where FedEx has reason to believe that mail contains dangerous and injurious contents that pose potential danger to FedEx employees, equipment, products, or facilities, FedEx will take actions necessary to secure the item and minimize the risk. The Inspection Service will be immediately notified and FedEx and the Inspection Service will coordinate the disposition of the item.

5.5 Personnel Screening Procedures
FedEx is committed to providing the Postal Service with qualified staff that has passed our stringent screening process. To ensure that we comply with Postal Service Security Investigations Service Center (SISC) and Office of Personnel Management (OPM) personnel security screening and reporting requirements, FedEx conducts a thorough screening (Section 5.5.1) of all candidates for employment.
We will provide the Postal Service with exceptional data protection based on security measures implemented in a proactive and planned manner. Our security best practices mandate an integrated approach to the protection of assets. Administrative, operations, personnel, physical, and technical security solutions must interact to achieve the overall goal of protecting Postal Service data and all other information assets that come under our control. Our successful data security approach addresses both deliberate and inadvertent data loss, compromise, corruption, and denial of use.
5.6 Personnel Security Training
FedEx will train all support staff in the Postal Service Security Policies and Procedures, the use and support of security tools and products, security compliance requirements, and the penalties of noncompliance. We will conduct random, unannounced security audits of our facilities to ensure compliance with security procedures. We maintain an extensive Security Awareness, Training, and Education (SATE) program to ensure that all employees are aware of their responsibilities, the sensitivity of the information to which they will have access, and the standards of conduct required of each employee. Mandatory annual and semi-annual training courses are accessible online.
5.7 Security Breach Procedures
Our approach to security breach management is based on our extensive experience in industry best practices, which is focused on:
• | | Incident Recording.All incidents will be recorded. |
• | | Categorization and Prioritization.Security breaches will be matched against existing problems or known errors in an attempt to identify previous solutions or workarounds that expedite resolution. Failing that, breaches will be prioritized to ensure assignment of adequate resources for investigation and diagnosis. |
• | | Investigation and Diagnostics.Security breach details and checks will be assessed against existing intelligence to identify an approved resolution. |
• | | Escalation.If escalation is required, subject matter experts (SMEs) will work to develop workarounds or solutions. |
• | | Workaround and Incident Closure.The security breach knowledge base will be updated and customers will be contacted via surveys to gauge satisfaction. |
• | | Restoration of Service.Communication will be maintained between the customer and security personnel through all phases of security breach management to restore service to normal Postal Service operations. |

6.0 Sustainability Plan
FedEx is committed to operating and innovating in new ways that not only benefit our Postal Service customer, but our industry.
This FedEx Sustainability Plan presents the details of our corporate sustainability initiatives and supporting metrics. We will work collaboratively with the Postal Service to develop initiatives to improve services and meet their guidelines. As shown in our attached corporate sustainability plan, FedEx is concerned for the environment, has proactively taken steps to mitigate our fleet footprint, and reports periodically on our environmental efficiency.
FedEx is familiar with the Postal Service sustainability goals and implementation initiatives, and our Sustainability Plan is responsive to the Postal Service plan. The Postal Service produces an annual Strategic Sustainability Performance Plan, including key performance indicators (KPI) on greenhouse gas emissions, facility energy use, transportation fuel use, and solid waste recycled. We collect and report on those KPIs annually. As a self-funded Federal agency, the Postal Service is not required to meet all of the Federal sustainability requirements in Executive Orders 13423 and 13514 or Presidential Memoranda for fleet management and bio-based purchasing, but where possible, the Postal Service voluntarily sets specific objectives that follow the Federal goals. Our Sustainability Plan also follows this guidance. The Postal Service reports annually on the following goals:
• | | Reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by FY 20 |
• | | Reduce facility energy intensity by 30% by FY 15 |
• | | Reduce potable water intensity by 26% by FY 20 |
• | | Reduce total postal vehicle petroleum fuel use by 20% by FY 15. |
6.1 Environmental Initiatives
FedEx is a symbol for leadership in global sustainability efforts. We think this sets us apart from other companies. FedEx actively works with government agencies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), manufacturers, suppliers, and other fleet operators to introduce fuel-efficient and low-carbon, alternative-fuel technologies, and to promote the transformation of transportation through our advocacy for electrification. FedEx is a leader among U.S.-based logistics and transportation companies in this regard. We welcome the opportunity to provide consultative services to, and benchmarking opportunities for the Postal Service to share best practices and information about our most successful projects. The Postal Service has benchmarked with FedEx previously on this issue and FedEx will continue to work with the Postal Service in the future. FedEx will follow all Department of Transportation, International Air Transport Association and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidance for fleet modernization recommendations, fuel efficiency, and other climate change criteria.
6.1.1 Collaborative Efforts with Postal Service
As part of this solicitation, FedEx proposes the following efforts to meet or exceed the goals that it has established for itself. It will also be able to meet or exceed all Postal Service objectives.
6.2 Current Sustainability Initiatives and Metrics
FedEx is committed to sustainability efforts and has a number of efforts in progress. The FedEx annual Global Citizenship Report (GCR) presents our initiatives and metrics. EarthSmart@Work, a program in the FedEx key focus area of Environment and Efficiency, is responsible for setting, implementing, and achieving goals to minimize our impact on the environment.
INITIATIVES. Through FedEx’s EarthSmart@Work Program, we have the following initiatives, which are highlighted from the 2011 GCR:

• | | Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Our current emissions goals include: |
| • | | Reducing aircraft emissions intensity by 30% by 2020, on an emissions per available-ton-mile basis, from a baseline year of 2005. This represents an increase in our global aircraft emissions intensity goal by 50% from the original target established in 2005. |
| • | | Increasing FedEx Express vehicle efficiency by 20% by 2020, including by supporting new technology, from a baseline year of 2005. |
| • | | Getting 30% of our jet fuel from alternative fuels by the year 2030 and expanding on-site generation of, and continuing procurement of renewable energy for our facilities. |
• | | Aircraft. Decreasing aircraft CO2 emissions intensity by 30% by 2020, on an emissions per available-ton-mile basis from a baseline year of 2005. This represents an increase in our global aircraft emissions intensity goal of 50% from the original target established in 2005. |
| • | | Fuel Sense – Optimization of flight planning, aircraft weight reduction, and flight efficiencies are a few of the 30 Fuel Sense programs. Fuel Sense helped cut our jet fuel consumption by 40.5 million gallons and CO2 emissions by nearly 388,000 metric tons in FY 11. |
| • | | By 2015, we will have replaced all of our less efficient 727s with more fuel-efficient and greater payload 757 aircraft. |
| • | | We are also introducing Boeing 777F aircraft, which use 18% less fuel than the MD-11 aircraft and provide greater payload capacity. In addition, we are planning to introduce the new Boeing 767 aircraft into our fleet in FY 13, which will further contribute to our ability to meet our newly revised aircraft emissions intensity reduction target. |
• | | Vehicles.Improving vehicle fuel efficiency of the FedEx Express surface delivery vehicle fleet by 20% by 2020 – including support of new technology – using 2005 as the baseline year. |
| • | | Zero-emission, all-electric vehicles – The FedEx zero-emission, all-electric fleet of vehicles reduces emissions and fuel usage in major metropolitan areas. Coupled with the restructuring of routes and right-sizing of our fleet, these FedEx vehicles have helped us save 75 million gallons of fuel to date and have reduced our fuel consumption in North America, Europe, and Asia by more than 25%. |
| • | | Alternative fuel vehicles (hybrid-electric and all-electric) – FedEx Express has increased the size of its alternative-fuel fleet by 18% in FY 12, with a total of 364 hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs) and 118 electric vehicles (EVs) in service by the end of FY 12. These vehicles have saved 345,000 gallons of fuel and logged 12.1 million miles since being introduced into our fleet. We also continue to retrofit conventional internal combustion engine vehicles to make our local delivery vehicles more fuel efficient through our Vehicle Refresh Plan. |
• | | Alternative Aviation Fuel. Getting 30% of our jet fuel from alternative fuels by 2030 – FedEx is collaborating with the aviation industry to develop alternative fuel for long-distance transport. Working with The Nature Conservancy, we have brought together leading experts to help us consider every angle of the issue. We are consulting with the FAA and the Departments of Agriculture, Defense, and Energy. We are collaborating with specialists from the emerging alternative fuels industry, airplane manufacturers, airlines, and conservation organizations. Emissions reduction, energy conservation, affordability, and the preservation of land and the world’s food supply — all these factor into the selection process. Our goal is to source 30% of our aviation fuel from alternatives by 2030. |
• | | Solar Facilities. Greening our facilities through the generation and continuing procurement of renewable and alternate energy – Currently, we have 6 solar energy facilities – 5 in the U.S. and one in Europe – which together have reduced CO2 emissions by an estimated 6,858 metric tons. |
Environmental Management System.Implementing an Environmental Management System to provide a formal process to improve environmental efficiency and performance to achieve ISO 14001 certification. Currently 51 of our facilities have achieved this certification.
Recycling. Through our EarthSmart@Work programs, we are finding ways to responsibly recycle everything from paper to motor oil. FedEx Ground is leading the charge to reduce landfill waste through Ground Green, an EarthSmart@Work initiative. We are working in conjunction with the EPA Waste Wise program on this comprehensive campaign that encourages team members to recycle everything from paper to cardboard to wood pallets. Since the program’s inception in 2006, waste removal costs are down 25% in one district alone, and millions of pounds of goods have been saved from the landfill.

Carbon-Neutral Envelope Shipping. For every FedEx Express envelope shipped, we will offset the carbon emissions related to our transport, no matter where we travel, at no cost to the customer. The annual estimated carbon offset through this program is equivalent to planting 2,179,487 seedlings and letting them grow for 10 years.
Paper and Packaging. For more than a decade, FedEx has worked to minimize the environmental impact of our packaging wherever possible, by using recycled content and maximizing recyclability. Today, most FedEx packaging is recyclable and contains recycled materials. For example, the FedEx Express Overnight Envelope is composed of 100% recycled cardboard. Changes in the recycled content of our legal-sized reusable FedEx Envelope, which uses dual tear strips to extend its usefulness, resulted in an annual paperboard reduction of 100,000 pounds.Figure 6-1presents our progress in this area.

Noise Abatement. FedEx founder and CEO Frederick W. Smith says, “Concerning noise control, FedEx and many carriers have worked for years to reduce noise through quieter aircraft and better abatement procedures such as reduced power climbs and improved descent patterns.”
METRICS.FedEx tracks the following metrics and reports on the progress through in annual GCR. The following are highlights:
• | | Enterprise CO2Emissions (in metric tons). We report on total direct greenhouse-gas emissions which are directly proportional to economic growth. |
• | | Aircraft Emissions (in metric tons). We increased our global aircraft CO2emissions intensity reduction goal by 50% to a 30% intensity reduction by 2020, still using FY 05 as the baseline year. |
• | | Vehicle Fuel Efficiency. Our goal for 2020 is to improve the fuel efficiency of the FedEx Express surface delivery vehicle fleet by 20%, using 2005 as the baseline year. |
• | | Electric and Hybrid Electric Fleet. We increased our global EV and HEV fleet to 482 vehicles, an increase of nearly 18%. The fleet has logged almost 12.1 million miles, saving approximately 345,000 gallons of fuel. |
• | | Solar Electricity. We have generated more than 18 GWh of solar electricity since we built our first solar facility. We now have 6 solar energy facilities, 5 in the U.S. and 1 in Europe. These 6 facilities alone have reduced our CO2 emissions by an estimated 6,858 metric tons. |
• | | Renewable Energy Credits. In FY 11, FedEx Office® purchased 33,333 Renewable Energy Credits (REC) to offset emissions associated with the electricity we used in FY 11 and to support efforts to generate electricity from renewable sources. Each REC purchased represents 1,000 kWh of electricity produced by a renewable energy facility. |
• | | Waste Streams. In FY 11, the majority of our waste (95.32%) consisted of nonhazardous and municipal solid waste, much like regular household garbage. The remaining waste streams included hazardous waste, which is dangerous or potentially harmful to human health or the environment; “universal waste,” which includes batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment, and light bulbs; and e-waste. |

• | | Recycling (in millions of pounds and percentages). We recycle and reuse a significant amount of waste, and we look for new technologies to help us increase this amount. In FY 11, we recycled 6.4 million more pounds of the waste generated at our facilities and increased the percentage of waste recycled to 36%. |
• | | ISO 14001 Certification. ISO 14001 provides a framework for a holistic, strategic approach to an organization’s environmental policy, plans, and actions. FedEx is evaluating the feasibility of obtaining ISO 14001 certification in additional facilities as 51 of our facilities in Europe meet those requirements. |
• | | FSC Certified Paper. We seek to buy paper for our FedEx Office Print and Ship Centers from suppliers that have been certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), which helps ensure responsible forest management. In FY 11, we increased the percentage of FSC-certified paper used in our FedEx facilities to 80%. |

7.4 Method Used to Develop Subcontracting Goals
FedEx has a disciplined and logical process and methodology to develop our subcontracting goals. Our purchasing agents develop, on an annual basis, a sourcing plan that identifies the commodities and services that are under contract with projections for bid during the following calendar year. We will consider factors such as volume by service type, subcontractor performance, and customer ordering projections. Based on the calculated dollar amounts, we compare our current budgeted subcontract dollars to the projected spending, and arrive at our average percentages for the next year. Our subcontractor goals are consistent with, and accurately reflect FedEx’s actual subcontracting report for the electronic Subcontracting Reporting System (eSRS).
7.5 Method Used to Identify Potential Sources
FedEx uses several proven methods to advertise to potential sources. We monitor Web sites to meet our subcontracting goals, including those of the National Minority Supplier Development Council, SBA Matchmaking Sessions, SBA.gov, Mid-South Minority Business Council, FedEx Supplier Contact Management System, and System for Award Management (SAM) which is formerly the Central Contractor Registration (CCR). Outreach efforts include involvement with trade associations, business development organizations, conferences, and trade fairs to locate small, minority, and woman-owned business sources. We provide encouragement to subcontractors through workshops, seminars, and training, and monitoring performance to evaluate compliance with the program’s requirements. These efforts demonstrate FedEx’s commitment to ensuring that businesses, other than large businesses, have an equitable opportunity to compete and participate in subcontracts.
7.6 Indirect Cost Statement
Indirect costs have been included in the dollar and percentage subcontracting goals stated above inFigure 7-1, in Section 7.1. The method used to determine the proportionate share of indirect costs to be incurred with small business concerns is calculated based on the previous year’s subcontractor spend, factored with estimates for the coming year.
We require that our supply chain specialists include at least one SMWOB concern in all RFPs for indirect costs. If a small business concern is not included, an exception form detailing why one was not included must be submitted and signed by the Vice President for the applicable engagement.

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 November 6, 2012 Environment & Efficiency FEDEX DOESN’T JUST WANT TO PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN HOW THE WORLD IS CONNECTED We want to connect the world responsibly and resourcefully. The commercial transportation industry has no single solution for reducing its environmental footprint. But FedEx is committed to operating and innovating in new ways that can help our business as well as our industry. Environment and Efficiency is one of four specific areas where we document our progress each year. Along with Economics and Access, Community and Disaster Relief, and People and Workplace, we offer data, information, and examples in our annual Global Citizenship Report of how we live up to our responsibilities. FedEx team members contribute to our progress in these four important areas, their actions speaking just as loudly as the numbers that mark our progress. FedEx was the first U.S. transportation-logistics company to set long-term goals to reduce aircraft emissions. In 2005, we set goals to reduce aircraft emissions 20 percent by 2020, to increase FedEx Express vehicle efficiency by 20 percent by 2020, and to expand on-site renewable energy generation and the procurement of renewable energy credits. FedEx was the first company in the U.S. transportation-logistics industry to establish a Citizenship Blog, to report global Scope 1 (direct) greenhouse-gas emissions in 2008, and to disclose climate risks to the Securities and Exchange Commission. For more information on risks reported, see pages 19 and 71 of our Securities and Exchange Commission Form 10-K 2012. Our current emissions goals include: Reducing aircraft emissions intensity 30 percent by 2020, on an emissions per available-ton-mile basis, from a baseline year of 2005— this represents an increase in our global aircraft emissions intensity goal by 50 percent from the original target established in 2005. Increasing FedEx Express vehicle efficiency by 20 percent by 2020, including via support of new technology, from a baseline year of 2005. Getting 30 percent of our jet fuel from alternative fuels by the year 2030. Expanding on-site generation of and continuing procurement of renewable energy for our facilities. Seeking LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certification on all new FedEx Express buildings in the U.S. Our strategy for reaching these goals includes: Minimizing our environmental footprint while serving our customers and growing our business. Maximizing efficiencies. Supporting innovation for eco-technologies. Providing leadership in responsible environmental stewardship. Helping connect the world in responsible and resourceful ways. We continue to look at and identify our areas of exposure with regard to greenhouse-gas emissions and other environmental factors. We then determine the level of potential impact and set appropriate plans and goals needed to shrink our environmental footprint. Finally, we continually monitor our progress toward minimizing our impact and achieving our goals. Many departments are involved in issues of environmental stewardship. Their collective efforts are led by Mitch Jackson, Vice President for Environmental Affairs and Sustainability. In 2011, we reconstituted our governance oversight with the FedEx Enterprise Sustainability Council (FESC), a senior officer-level council that develops and guides implementation of our sustainability strategy. Sustainability Impact Teams were also established under the FESC management structure to ensure that our various operating companies can discuss, plan, and act in harmony on our sustainability strategy. We also actively work with government agencies, NGOs, manufacturers, suppliers, and other fleet operators to introduce fuel-efficient and low-carbon, alternative-fuel technologies, and to promote the transformation of transportation through our advocacy for electrification. FedEx has done more than any other U.S.-based logistics and transportation company in this regard. FedEx was the first company in the U.S. transportation-logistics industry to push for commercial-vehicle, fuel-economy legislation, which was enacted in the Energy Independence & Security Act of 2007. And we helped create a set of principles to inform and support this first-ever national greenhouse-gas/fuel-efficiency program for medium- and heavy-duty vehicles—the only company in our industry to do so. FOR MORE INFORMATION ON OUR APPROACH TO CARBON LEGISLATION, SEE THE FOLLOWING: FedEx addresses the feasibility of the concept of a price on carbon emissions— blog.fedex.designcdt.com/node/810. Frederick W. Smith addresses the carbon tax debate while speaking at the Global Green Initiative Conference— mediacenter.fedex.designcdt.com/node/347. FedEx has also participated in studies that advocated such legislation.

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 November 6, 2012 Environment & Efficiency EARTHSMART®. FEDEX SOLUTIONS FOR A MORE SUSTAINABLE WORLD. FedEx works to achieve our ambitious goals through EarthSmart, the FedEx roadmap fat operating in an increasingly sustainable way and engaging our team members, customers, suppliers, vendors, and the communities where we operate to help us reduce the environmental impact of our daily business operations. We introduced EarthSmart in 2009 as a way to underscore our commitment to minimize our impact on the environment. Our aim is to find or create new ways not only to improve our own company’s environmental performance, but also to point the way for other companies in our own industry and beyond. EarthSmart includes three pillars: EarthSmart Innovations: Customer and FedEx solutions related to services and assets. EarthSmart © Work: Workplace employee-engagement programs. EarthSmart Outreach: Philanthropic and volunteer efforts. INTRODUCING FEDEX CARBON-NEUTHAL ENVELOPE SHIPPING In April 2012, FedEx introduced our latest EarthSmart innovation—FedEx carbon-neutral envelope shipping. For every FedEx Express18 envelope shipped, FedEx will offset the carbon emissions related to its transport, no matter where it travels. The program helps improve the carbon footprint not only at FedEx, but also for our customers’ businesses. But unlike our competitors, we won’t charge customers a fee to offset the carbon produced when they ship an envelope. Annual Estimated Carbon Offset We calculate the emissions it takes to transport an envelope to its destination, and we pay an offset provider to offset those emissions for every envelope we carry. The annual estimated carbon offset by this program is equivalent to planting 2,179,487 seedlings and letting them grow for 10 years. We work with BP Target Neutral, a not-for-profit offset provider whose projects reduce, replace, and neutralize carbon. Currently, BP Target Neutral invests in six large carbon-offset projects, which will offset the carbon FedEx emits transporting envelopes. Projects are located in: China-micro hydro; The Netherlands—biogas; Tanzania-reforestation; Thailand-landfill-to-gas, Turkey-wind power; and U.S.-landfill-to-gas.

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 November 6, 2012 Environment & Efficiency GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS ENTERPRISE CO2 EMISSIONS Our Scope 1 and 3 CO2 emissions increased slightly in FY11 due to increased shipping volumes, which came with improved global economic conditions and strong demand for our services. However, we have made progress in decoupling economic growth from our direct greenhouse-gas emissions during that time period. Our Scope 1, 2 and 3 CO2 absolute emissions increased by 4 percent in FY11 compared with FY10, while still remaining at 3 percent below FY09 levels. In FY11, we increased out total annual revenue by 13 percent over FY10. Enterprise CO2 Emissions (in metric tons) GREENING OUR FLEET AIRCRAFT EMISSIONS We calculate aircraft emissions intensity metrics by dividing the total CO2 emissions of our company-operated aircraft by the available ton miles (ATM), or the tons of carrying capacity by miles traveled. Aircraft Emissions DEFINING SCOPE EMISSIONS Our Scope 1 emissions include those generated by our company-operated aircraft and surface vehicle fleets, and on-site combustion of diesel, natural gas, and other fuels used at our hub, station, and office locations. Our Scope 2 emissions are indirectly generated through our consumption of purchased electricity, heat, and steam at our facilities and FedEx Office Print and Ship Centers In FY11, our Scope 2 emissions decreased slightly due to ongoing energy efficiency initiatives at our facilities (see “Greening Our Facilities” for more information). Our Scope 3 emissions comprise other indirect emissions, including those from FedEx Express feeder aircraft contract operators and the fuel we sell to FedEx Ground independent contractors. We compiled our greenhouse emissions inventory using data and emissions factors in accordance with WorId Resources Institute technical guidance. In previous years, we tracked and reported this data on a calendar-year basis. However, in order to be consistent with how we report on other data in this report, we are transitioning to a fiscal-year reporting basis for this metric going forward. Our previous goal by 2020 was to reduce our CO2, emissions intensity or emissions per available ton mile by 20 percent as compared with our 2005 performance. We are pleased to announce that FedEx has increased our global aircraft emissions intensity goal by 50 percent to a 30 percent intensity reduction by 2020, still using FY05 as the baseline year. In FY11, we reduced aircraft CO2 omissions intensity by 4 percent, bringing our cumulative reduction to 13.8 percent compared with FY05. The majority of this reduction was due to replacement of older, more-inefficient aircraft. By 2015, we will have replaced all our less-efficient 727s with more fuel-efficient and greater payload 757 aircraft. We are also introducing Boeing 777 aircraft, which use 18 percent less fuel than the MD-11 aircraft and provide greater payload capacity. In addition, we are planning to introduce the new Boeing 767 aircraft to our fleet in FY13, which will further contribute to our ability to meet our newly revised aircraft emissions intensity reduction target. Other operational activities play a significant role, and these advancements are managed under our Fuel Sense program. We have programs to optimize fuel usage from gate to gate, starting with preflight. For example, aircraft auxiliary power unit (APU) usage is managed by providing ground support equipment 2011 GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP GOALS & PROGRESS UPDATE | 5 SN#: 5A-12-A-0024 Use or disclosure of data contained on this sheet is subject to the restriction on the title page of this proposal. 6

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 November 6, 2012 Environment & Efficiency in parking positions. To supplement ground support equipment, gate stands provide power from either a power converter or a portable power unit, and portable air conditioning carts keep the aircraft cool in hot summer months. This equipment is monitored in real time and information is provided to all the stakeholders, from ground support teams that can track the portable units in real time and dispatch them to the required gate to the flight crewmembers so they can determine when to start the APU. We also have gate-to-gate programs to facilitate taxiing with one less engine and for optimized profile descent (also known as continuous descent approach) prior to landing. These procedures provide a repeatable and predictable trajectory that both Air Traffic Control and crewmembers can use to minimize fuel usage. We also have a mechanism for crewmembers to share new ideas and provide feedback on their individual contributions to the program. Whether on the ground or in the air in every phase of the flight, preflight, taxi, takeoff, climb, cruise, descent, landing, and taxi, we look for programs to optimize fuel usage and reduce emissions. At FedEx, small changes through individual contributions a mount to a big impact in emission reductions over many daily operations worldwide. VEHICLE FUEL EFFICIENCY Our goal for 2020 is to improve the fuel efficiency of the FedEx Express surface/delivery vehicle fleet by 20 percent, using 2005 as the baseline year. We are happy to announce that we are still on track to meet that target, having achieved a 16.6 percent improvement in the FedEx Express vehicle fleet between FY05 and FY11. Vehicle Fuel Efficiency The FedEx Express pickup and delivery vehicle fleet follows a three-tired approach to improve vehicle fuel efficiency: Reduce, Replace, and Revolutionize. This means we develop vehicle technologies for the future while making the best use of the conventional vehicles we operate today. FedEx Express has increased the size of its alternative-fuel fleet by 18 percent in FY12, with a total of 364 hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs) and 118 electric vehicles (EVs) in service by the end of FY12. These vehicles seved 345,000 gallons of fuel and logged 12.1 million miles since being introduced to our fleet. We also continue to retrofit conventional internal-combustion-engine vehicles to make our local delivery vehicles more fuel efficient through our “Vehicle Refresh Plan” Our engineers use detailed analysis techniques to understand the power and torque requirements of our various route profiles. Matching the right vehicle to each respective route yield significant economic and environmental returns. This program has saved over 75 million gallons of fuel since its inception. Electric and Hybrid-Electric Fleet EARTHSMART @ WORK: WORKPLACE EMPLOYEE-ENGAGEMENT PROGRAMS Fuel Sence: Optimization of flight planning, aircraft weight reduction, and flight efficiencies are a few of the 30 different Fuel Sense programs. Fuel Sense helped cut our jet fuel consumption by 40.5 million gallons and CO emissions by nearly 388,000 metric tons in FY11. Reduce, Replace and Revolutionize: Includes restructuring FedEx Express routes to reduce miles driven and vehicles needed, matching vehicles to routes by energy requirements, and using smart changing algorithms to control the impact on the electric grid.

Germany The FedEx Express 350,000-square-foot solar-powered facility in Oakland, Calif, was the largest commercial solar rooftop installation at the time it was built in 2005. More than 5,700 solar electric panels cover the 81,000 square feet of roof space, producing 904 kilowatts of power In 2008, FedEx Freight introduced two solar-power installations at facilities in Whittier and Fontana, Calif., both systems providing a substantial portion of the facilities’ annual electricity needs In late 2009, FedEx Ground installed the nation’s then largest rooftop solar-electric system at its distribution huh in Woodbridge, N J Capable of producing approximately 26 million kilowatt-hours of electricity a year, the system provides up to 30 percent of the hub’s annual energy needs. the solar-electric system at the FedEx Express facility in Cologne, Germany, went online in 2010 and has produced nearly 1.8 gigawatt hours of power to dale. In May 2011, the 1.13 megawatt FedEx Ground Railto, Calif., solar electricity system went online and meets approximately 30 percent of that facility’s annual electricity needs. The FedEx Express Oakland, Calif, huh is also using Bloom Energy fuel Cell technology for electric generation. FedEx installed live 100 kilowatt fuel cells at the hub, which can run on almost any hydrocarbon fuel ethonol, biodieseI, methane, and natural gas. These fuel cells require no combustion, producing virtually no NOx, SOx, or other smog forming participates. Dunning on natural gas, the fuel cells provide each facility with MO kilowatts of electricity by Converting natural gas to electricity. They thereby reduce the strain and dependency on the local electrical distribution grid and further our strategic investment in innovative technologies RENEWABLE ENERGY CREDITS In addition In the renewable energy generated on site, FedEx Office purchased 33,333 renewable energy credits (RLC) to offset emissions associate with the electricity user) in FY11 and to support efforts to generate electricity from renewable sources. Each REC purchased represents 1,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity produced by a renewable energy facility. Renewable Energy Credits MWh 33,333 In addition, FedEx Ground recently purchased 1,855 Green E certified, “NewMix” National Wind RECs, equating to an offset of 2,033,433 pounds of CO2 emissions for the associate indirect grid electricity emissions at seven hub and station locations in Pennsylvania. This initial purchase was part of a recent strategically designed energy procurement effort whose ultimate goal is to offset the Scope 2 emissions associated with electricity consumed at more than 500 FedEx Ground facilities in the U S and Canada LEED* CERTIFIED FACILITIES All new, and some existing, FedEx Express U S buildings will seek LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environment Design) certification. These certifications help FedEx to conserve energy, improve the environment, and create a better workplace The FedEx Express I as Vegas facility was the first to earn LEED certification, reducing indoor water use by 19 percent computed with code compliant plumbing, improving energy savings by 42 percent through design elements such as skylights and evaporative cooling, diverting 86 percent of all construction waste through recycling and reclamation of materials, and ensuring that more than ft percent of regularly occupied spaces are sunlit to reduce the need for electric lights and provide better workspaces The FedEx Express World Headquarters in Memphis received LEED Cold certification in January 2011, under the U.S. Green building Council’s LEED) for Existing Buildings Haling System. The FedEx Enterprise Data Center West, in Colorado Springs, Cole., is now certified LEED Gold under the new fating system for new construction and is a winner at International Data Group’s InfoWorld Green 15 Award.

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 November 6, 2012 Environment & Efficiency • When it comes to green roofs at airports, nothing in the country tops the FedEx Express cargo facility at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport The new O’Hare FedEx Express package-sorting center conducts opera lions under the largest continuous vegetated roof at an airport in the US It is the size of three football fields FedEx and the Chicago Department of Aviation are also pursuing LEED Gold certification for the facility, extending the company’s intent announced earlier this year of LEED certification for all new U. S. FedEx Express properties For more information on the Chicago O’Hare green roof, go to news, van, fedex.com/OHareGreenRoof. FACILITIES WITH ISO 14001 CERTIFICATION international Organization for Standardization (ISO] 14001 provides a framework for a holistic, strategic approach to an organization’s environmental policy, plans, and actions It outlines requirements for environmental management systems, and 51 of our facilities meet those requirements. In 1999, FedEx Express began implementing an Environ menial Management System (EMS) to provide a formal process to improve environmental efficiency and performance. With the help of Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance, a gap analysis was completed, and FedEx Express instituted an EMS that is based upon ISO 14001 requirements fonts U S locations Fifty FedEx facilities in the United Kingdom in September 2008 became the first FedEx locations to achieve ISO 14001 certification. This was followed by certification of the FedEx international hub in Paris, France ISO 14001 Certification FY11 51 facilities We continue to deploy the FMS globally, and FedEx is evaluating the feasibility of obtaining ISO 14001 certification in other markets and at other facilities. In the interim, the FedEx corporate EMS will continue to be based upon elements in the ISO 14001 standard. It includes a corporate policy that guides decision making and procedure manuals that provide clear direction to site personnel The FMS includes a website that educates team members on environmental responsibilities, contacts for assistance, environmental stewardship actions by FedEx, and programs in which team members can participate. In addition, the EMS contains extensive computer-based and classroom training for team members and the use of a regulatory tracking system to maintain awareness of changes in applicable laws The EMS also includes an Environmental Management Information System to aid in retaining and analysing key environmental data. WASTE STREAMS AND RECYCLING WASTE STREAMS The majority of our waste is considered nonhajardous and municipal solid waste, much like regular household garbage The remaining waste streams include: hazardous waste, which is dangerous or potentially harmful to human health or the environment; “universal waste,” which includes batteries, pesticides, mercury-con laming equipment, and light bulbs, and e-waste, such as obsolete handheld scanners, computers, and peripheral devices. We are working toward a goal of reporting the total solid-waste generated at our I facilities across our enterprise in the near future.

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 Environment & Efficiency November 6, 2012 RECYCLING Recycling Totals (in millions of Ibs.) FY10FY11 41.5 47.9 In FY11, we recycled 6.4 million more pounds of the waste generated at our facilities than we did in FY10) Based on the waste generation we currently track, out recycling rose 10 points, to 30 percent in FY11. Recycling Percentages Al FedEx, we’ve found opportunities to extend the useful life of a number of materials we use at our business through recycling programs These efforts help divert millions of pounds from landfills. For example, our in-store recycling program at FedEx Office allows us to recycle waste in a secure fashion, and in 2011, FedEx Office locations recycled more than five million pounds of paper, saving almost 8,000 cubic yards of landfill space and over 44,000 trees through that program. The EarthSmart @ Work programs Ground Green, Freight Waste Watch, and FedEx Office paper Recycling—are landing ways In responsibly recycle everything from paper to motor oil. And in some cases, we are even reselling our recycled packaging EarthSmart ® Work will continue to challenge our team members to find new ways to recycle and/or reuse a significant percentage of waste, including nonhazardous, hazardous, universal, and e-waste. U.S. domestic e-waste generated by our operating companies is processed by the FedEx TechConnect Repair Service Center (RSC) and then sent to an external domestic e-waste recycler. FedEx has been a leader in using innovative technologies to power our global shipping and information networks. For more than 30 years, FedEx has put a high priority on keeping these technologies in top working older, and our team of highly trained FedEx technology repair specialists has always met this unique challenge. The RSC provides repair and logistics services of equipment used both by FedEx employees and Customers in the field. Through its innovative designs, the RSC delivers fast and flexible quality solutions to satisfy customer needs. In 2007, the RSC relocated to a new 138,000-square-foot facility in Collierville, Tenn. to maintain our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, the new facility features a highly automated sort system This state-of-the-art electronic repair facility continues 10 provide our customers with our Best Cost Performance and Best in Class repair operations, while providing increased security for the equipment entrusted to us for repair.

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 November 6, 2012 PAPER AND PACKAGING RFSPONSIBLY SOURCFED PAPER We seek to buy paper for cur FedFx Office* Print and Shin Centers from suppliers that have been certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), which helps ensure responsible forest management. In FY11, we increased the percentage of FSC certified paper used in our FedEx Office Print and Ship Centers to 80 percent FSC-Certified Paper At our 1,800-plus FedEx Office locations in the U.S. Canada, and internationally, we provide consumers sustainable solutions to choose from through our diverse portfolio of paper product offerings More than 70 percent of our paper products contain recycled content. We also offer tree-free paper selections made from natural plant fivers such as cotton. Through FedEx Office, we provide services to efficiently transmit digitized information, so customers can have document professionally printed and finished closer to where they are needed, reducing the resources required to physically transport shipments – and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. I addition all of the FedEx operating companies are working to increase the amount of responsibly sourced paper used for internal operations. For instance, in FY11 we increased the percentage of paper produced from recycled content that we track to 16 percent from 6 percent, resulting in an overall increase of 141 percent for that type of paper consumed on our offices and facilities. This increase was due both to improved reporting of recycled paper usage by our key supplier as well as enhanced product offerings to meet the demand for recycled paper content across the enterprise. PACKAGING For more than a decade, we have worked to minimize the environmental impact of our packaging wherever possible by using recycled content and maximizing recyclability. At the FedEx Packaging Lab, our engineers use the latest materials and tools to solve shipping challenges, including environmental ones, and today, most FedEx packaging is recyclable and contains recycled materials. The iconic FedEx Express overnight envelope is composed of 100 percent recycled content and are recyclable. FedEx 10-kilogram and 25-kilogram boxes contain a minimum of 70 percent recycled content and recyclable. FedEx boxes sold at our retail locations contain a minimum of 20 percent recycled content and are recyclable. Most FedEx Paks contain 60 percent recycled content and are recyclable at select location. With a continued focus on saving energy and reducing materials, we have made minor changes to our packaging with major results. For example, in 2001 we reduced the amount of plastic in the FedEx envelope pouch by almost 500,000 pounds per year. In 2003, we introduced a legal-size reusable envelope that uses dual tear-strips to extend the usefulness of the product while cutting waste. In 2004, we increased the recycled content of the FedEx Pak from 25 percent to 60 percent. And as recently as this year, we changed the material of the legal-size reusable FedEx Envelope, which resulted in an annual paperboard reduction of 100,000 pounds. EARTHSMART @ WORK:WORKPLACE EMPLOUEE-ENGAGEMENT PROGRAMS LEAF: FedEx Freight LEAFs educate and encourage team members to conserve our resources and track progress.

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 1 November 6. 2012 In 2009, FedEx Ground started using a special machine that shreds used cardboard packaging into a flexible packing material called “cardboard shred “ This cardboard shred now replaces traditional packing materials such as Styrofoam peanuts and bubble wrap, and it diverts tons of used cardboard from landfills These machines can also cut the cardboard shred into a variety of sizes, allowing for repacking of different size boxes, and are portable enough to fit easily in local sorting stations where space is limited Since 2009, FedEx Ground has placed 40 of these machines at key hubs and stations so far, with an annual estimated rate of return of 13 percent on this investment by eliminating the need to purchase new packing materials. In addition, the boxes used to send paper reams to FedEx Office locations are made of top tier green materials. The paper board utilized for these boxes is a chip paper board that is 100 percent recycled, 101 percent recyclable, and 100 percent made from post-consumer reclaimed fiber. And it is printed with water and soy based inks. This product is certified by the Forestry Stewardship Council, as are the facilities that manufacture the box. for more information on our sustainable solutions, go to solutionsthatmatter.van.fedex.com/standard.php#sustainability/ FINES AND PENALTIES In FY11, environmental inspections resulted in a total of $1,700 in assessments.

1.0 Day Network Operating Plan
FedEx, which has the world’s largest cargo aircraft fleet, will build upon our 12 years of successful support of the United States Postal Service to meet its Air Cargo Network requirements for mail delivery with consistently reliable and dependable service.
FedEx will provide a Postal Service Day Network that will deliver all air transportation and ancillary services to all required service points identified by the Postal Service in the Air Cargo Network (ACN) solicitation from Day 1 of the contract. We possess the immediate capacity to provide this service six days per week at the historical non-peak and peak volume levels identified in Attachment 2, Air Stops & Projected Volumes of the solicitation. As illustrated inFigure 1-1, this network includes all 82 required Day Network service points and 3 FedEx hubs.
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720ex10_52pg242.jpg)
Figure 1-1. FedEx Air Cargo Day Network
FedEx understands the Postal Service culture, processes, routing, and tender requirements better than any other air freight company.
Single Vendor Network Benefits
Use of a single carrier will provide the Postal Service with needed efficiencies and cost savings. In a multiple-carrier environment, capacity is deployed less efficiently, adding cost and additional handling unnecessarily. For example, if the planned volume could be accommodated on a single scheduled movement with one carrier, splitting this volume over two carriers would require scheduled conveyances from both carriers, which adds cost and inefficiency. With multiple carriers, the costs of monitoring and coordinating activities would increase for the Postal Service. Policies and procedures for the carriers would inevitably differ, creating opportunities for errors, confusion, and potential delay of mail delivery.
FedEx and the Postal Service have established and will maintain a shared aviation network that has enabled the Postal Service to significantly improve the service provided to its customers while continuously reducing the cost. For the past 12 years, FedEx, as the majority carrier, has transported

United States Postal Service Air Cargo Network Volume 2A - 100% of the Day Network November 6, 2012 | | ![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720fedex_logo.jpg) |
Express, Priority, and First Class mail to and from all of the points covered in this solicitation. Since 2006, we have also carried HAZMAT, live, perishable, and registered mail. As the largest carrier for the Postal Service, FedEx has provided this service at historical volume levels through peak days of more than [ * ] to low-volume days covering non-widely observed holidays.
Since the inception of the Postal Service Shared Network, the Postal Service has enjoyed greatly improved service to their customers, stability in their network provider, and reduced costs. The structure of having one carrier responsible for the vast majority of the volume provides the Postal Service with the most cost efficient, simple and reliable air transportation network. At current Postal Service volume levels, other than a few large volume locations, there is not enough mail to warrant the redundancies under a two-vendor network operational concept.
FedEx has been a collaborative business partner with the Postal Service for the past 12 years, and has been extremely responsive to requests for increasing volume, expanding service coverage, adding new products with unique handling characteristics, and maintaining cost controls. We believe that a single-provider network, with its operating efficiencies, extensive network connections, service capabilities and lower cost structure, will provide the greatest long-term benefits for the Postal Service, particularly at a time of fiscal need and budget awareness across the nation. FedEx has the aircraft, equipment, capacity, network reach, and management capability to continue serving the Postal Service in an efficient and low-cost, single-vendor operation well into the future.
The ongoing strategic alliance between FedEx and the Postal Service under the Postal Service Transportation Agreement (Transportation Agreement) brings noteworthy advantages to a renewal contract for the ACN. The Postal Service and FedEx jointly developed many of the processes and procedures that are currently being employed in the Transportation Agreement network. No other air cargo carrier has the benefit of this long and efficient operational experience with the Postal Service. FedEx has worked with the Postal Service to optimize schedules and tender times, eliminate excessive cost, and increase efficiencies, as shown inFigure 1-2.

On-Time Delivery for the Postal Service
FedEx has achieved service levels outlined in the [ * ]
Transportation Agreement in alliance with the Postal Service since 2001. Throughout that time, our extensive cargo Day Network transport system has demonstrated our capacity and capability to handle the historical volumes required by the Postal Service on weekdays and weekends, and during non-peak and peak periods. FedEx has delivered high-quality services that have consistently met or exceeded Postal Service mail delivery service requirements as shown inFigure 1-3.
Each of the FedEx Day Network airports across the nation is currently staffed with all necessary personnel to manage the receipt, outbound loading, and inbound delivery of Postal Service cargo. FedEx accomplishes this through an advanced hub-and-spoke system that ensures meeting delivery time requirements in all 82 ramp locations. FedEx is the only air cargo carrier that serves all 82 Postal Service locations and, as we have stated, FedEx has the world’s largest air cargo fleet with 634 aircraft serving airports in more than 220 countries and territories in all regions of the world. We can provide the capacity the Postal Service has outlined in Attachment 2 when and where it is needed without relying on availability of commercial, wet lease, or dry lease aircraft. In addition, FedEx is continuously upgrading our fleet to offer needed capacities more efficiently and economically.
Program and Operational Support for the Postal Service
The FedEx Postal Transportation Management Department (PTM), as described in Volume 1, Section 2.5, has been in place since the inception of the contract relationship in 2001 and is a dedicated Program Management Office (PMO) whose single mission is service to the Postal Service. FedEx Managing Director Ron Stevens has directed this department since the inception of the FedEx–Postal Service strategic alliance. This department was created as the interface for the Postal Service and designed to be a one-stop shop for all things Postal. Regardless of the issue, the Postal Service communicates with a single department. We recruited the best engineers in the country from our Air, Ground and Freight Services (AGFS) Division; knowledgeable in both ramp and hub operations and the planning process to support the Postal Service. These engineers, who are strategically domiciled around the country and aligned with the Postal Service Areas, work daily with the Postal Service on tactical issues affecting service. They work with Global Network Planning (GNP) and the Global Operations Control Center (GOCC) on issues regarding additional lift requirements as required. The PTM engineers also work closely with local management and the Terminal Handling Service (THS) providers on all operational issues. When an exception occurs, the PTM engineers develop a corrective action and communicate it to the Postal Service in the local, area, and headquarters groups.
The engineers are also responsible for developing and communicating the processes for any changes. The group has two dedicated engineers responsible for building the planning matrix each month. They work closely with the Postal Service planners on the volume request for each schedule period and act as a secondary check on lane-level volume from one operating period to the next. PTM also has a dedicated Service Assurance Manager and two Operations Administrators. They provide reports and status updates

throughout the day on flight and sort activity as well as issues that may impact service, such as contingency plans for weather events e.g. hurricanes and winter storms. The PTM team has experienced little turnover within the group since its inception. We feel this consistency in leadership at the management and engineer level has contributed to on-going success of this alliance.
PTM coordinates with the FedEx AGFS Division, which operates the air cargo network, and with GNP and GOCC that plan and manage flight operations, including the movement of Postal Service mail. AGFS operates the cargo system through its main Memphis World Hub and through four subordinate organizations that operate FedEx ramps at airports within their respective regions.
PTM coordinates with AGFS headquarters in Memphis, TN, and with the field ramp location managers. AGFS has an extensive management team to oversee the actual flight and logistics operations as illustrated inFigure 1-4. This figure shows the customer-focused FedEx team supporting the Postal Service, leveraging the capabilities of AGFS, and managed by ramp managers at each service point to deliver mail. PTM also coordinates with GNP and GOCC for Postal Service mail scheduling as well as flight operations for the Day Network.

Figure 1-4. Customer-Focused FedEx Mail Service Delivery Team
PTM coordinates with FedEx’s AGFS, which operates the air cargo network and, with GNP and GOCC that, plan and manage flight operations, including the movement of Postal Service mail.
PTM is the focal point for the Postal Service for planning and managing delivery services, which are carried out by AGFS and the ramp managers and staff at each service point. This coordination involves managing freight volumes requested by the Postal Service, planning each monthly operating period, and daily operational activity such as loading and launching aircraft, receiving, and tendering freight to the Postal Service or THS at the destination. Also critical to movement of Postal Service mail is the GOCC, as it operates the aviation services that move the mail.
Packages are scanned and the scan data is transmitted to system collection points constantly as they move through the system. This allows comprehensive reporting of results of each day’s activity. PTM, GNP, and AGFS work together using well-defined and comprehensive communication channels.

Operating the most sophisticated air cargo network in the world requires immediate communication, the ability to modify logistics operations swiftly and accurately, and total command of an exceptionally large fleet of aircraft. This is a complex management task, performed by demanding, outstanding, and talented professionals.
1.1 Tender and Delivery Times by Air Stop
FedEx is the only aviation supplier with staffed operating bases at all ACN Day Network airports.
Specific tender and delivery times by air stop, including number and type of aircraft, are listed in Attachment 12, Tender and Delivery Time Commitment. FedEx has an exemplary record over its 12-year history on the job. FedEx has consistently met or exceeded the tender time delivery requirement as shown inFigure 1-3. Even during our most challenging operating period in December, with volume surges at twice our non-peak demand and extreme weather, FedEx still met the Postal Service on-time delivery requirement.
1.2 Operational Components of the SOW
FedEx has consistently met service level requirements for the Postal Service throughout our 12-year service history.
Throughout our 12-year alliance with the Postal Service, FedEx has worked with the Postal Service to develop many of the processes that are now used to perform aviation support under the Transportation Agreement.Figure 1-5 illustrates the proven process flow from acceptance at the origin to delivery at the destination that we will use on the ACN contract.
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720ex10_52pg246.jpg)
Figure 1-5. FedEx Air Transport Mail Delivery Service Process
FedEx has developed a series of mature processes to move the air cargo from origin to destination, consistently meeting the contractual delivery times.
As shown inFigure 1-5, FedEx accepts the cargo at the origin ramp and flies it to the FedEx hub airport, where it is distributed to its correct outbound container and loaded onto an aircraft to fly to the destination airport. Each lane is managed through established scanning procedures to ensure the correct routing of the mail from origin to destination. A “lane” describes the origin point to destination point routing of the mail, for example from origin city A to destination city B, e.g., from Atlanta to Albuquerque. The main processes in the transport of the mail as specified in the solicitation are:

FedEx has developed and will continue to use mature key processes for the Postal Service ACN that have been thoroughly tested and proven over the 12-year history of the relationship.
Figure 1-6 compares the key processes for the ACN contract to select processes of the current Transportation Agreement contract. We have developed these processes over time in collaboration with the Postal Service and will modify or continue processes as provided under the new ACN contract. These service processes reflect how FedEx efficiently and effectively takes possession of, sorts (if necessary), transports, scans, loads, and delivers mail for the Postal Service.

| | |
With responsibility for scheduling and management across the FedEx Express global network, GNP and GOCC work closely with PTM to ensure on-time delivery of the mail. The GOCC (Figure 1-7) is fully staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year with highly skilled and experienced airline operations management specialists. The GOCC is one of the most sophisticated control centers in the transportation industry, with state-of-the-art facilities, information systems, and communications, and proven plans and processes based on real-world contingency management experience and expertise. All day, every day, the GOCC team responds to and overcomes challenges, including severe weather systems, flight delays, emergency maintenance events, and even natural disasters. The GOCC supervises and protects FedEx team members and assets while correcting situations that could impact mail delivery service to the Postal Service. | | ![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720ex10_52pg248.jpg)
Figure 1-7. FedEx’s GOCC Our Global Operations Control Center is state-of-the art in managing a large airline fleet traversing the nation and the world. |

FedEx has the facilities, tools, processes, and staff to effectively respond to contingency situations. We were an industry leader in collaborating with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in responding to the events of September 11, 2001 and the restoration of aviation support for the Postal Service. FedEx belongs to the Domestic Events Network (DEN), which was established on the morning of September 11. DEN is a 24/7 unclassified interagency telephone conference – sponsored by the security arm of the FAA – dedicated to real-time coordination of air security issues.
FedEx has a back-up center located in Collierville, TN, that operates the network in live mode every Monday so that this contingency control center remains fully capable of assuming operational control of our global network in an emergency.

1.3.2 Facility Support and Administrative Functions
The goal of facility management at FedEx is to enable on-time delivery of Postal Service mail and all non-postal FedEx products. PTM ensures, through its coordination with AGFS, that local facility support and administration functions are present at each airport local ramp, ensuring mail movement, hub support, scanning and data capture, billing support, communications, and other functions. The PTM Department, described in Section 1.0, coordinates all necessary administrative and facility support at each of the FedEx ramp and hub locations throughout the network.
As an example, FedEx facility support includes on-site maintenance staff at each of our ramp and hub locations. We have more than [ * ] ground support and material handling equipment mechanics at FedEx ramps and hubs across the country. We have a planned and executed preventive maintenance program and an equipment replacement plan and schedule to ensure that equipment is operational, capable, and available to support service delivery requirements. We ensure that gate space for our aircraft, loading and surface handling equipment, scanning equipment, and other facility requirements as established in Section 1.3.8, are available.
1.3.3 Monitor Performance
The Postal Service and FedEx have developed, over the years of joint operations, and will continue to provide a series of monitoring control points that provide a high degree of confidence for on-time and reliable mail delivery services. We will continue to operate these control points. Performance is monitored by PTM through our well-established data capture capability that provides snapshots of our performance at 15-minute intervals, and is summarized to show our performance during the day and at the end of day, end of week, and end of monthly operating periods. Sections 1.3.5, 1.3.10, and 1.3.15 further describe key points of data capture and distribution that provide performance monitoring input.
We have email distribution lists in place for the Day Network which include Postal Service local operators, FedEx local operators, and the area and national headquarters personnel for both organizations. Emails of the Day Summaries contain the daily recap data and an attached Excel spreadsheet providing delay details and explanatory information. The reports are prepared in a.m. and p.m. versions and are distributed by the Senior Operations Administrator in PTM with the departmental email ID: PTM_OPS@fedex.com.
We distribute a Weekly Service Level Report–Adjusted, Weekly Analysis Review presentation, and a Saturday Service Level Report to management in several organizations including PTM and Postal Service Air Transportation Operations. We list in Section 1.3.16 in this volume a number of reports that we prepare, including information about the intended audience, a brief description of each report, the distribution timeline, and report frequency.Figure 1-8lists some benefits of the FedEx performance monitoring activities.

FedEx Performance Monitoring Features | | Benefits to the Postal Services |
| |
Provision and monitoring of mission-critical Day Summaries that detail flights more than 60 minutes late departing major hubs or major sorting locations | | Establishes the ability throughout the Day Network to adjust schedules to minimize mail delay from its origin to its destination |
| |
Monitoring of national weather daily from the FedEx Meteorological Department | | Establishes the ability to adjust Day Network flight schedules, re-routing, and hub operations to maximize on-time delivery of mail |
1.3.4 Provide Feedback to the Postal Service
FedEx has Operations Administrators who track performance daily. We provide updates on Postal Service transport parameters with regard to system performance throughout the day, with recaps at the end of each operation. Thus, feedback to the Postal Service occurs on both a formal and informal basis, with our PTM informally discussing both normal and unusual operations with their counterparts in the Postal Service and formally through the documented reports that we describe in Section 3.3.16.
1.3.5 Ensure the Integrity of Data Entry
FedEx has eliminated manual data entry to reduce keying errors. In addition, we perform root cause analysis for abnormalities discovered in the data. We have developed a program that validates the accuracy of Dispatch and Routing (D&R) numbers to eliminate duplicate entries. The Error Correction (EC) program searches D&R tags that have been identified as not being billed because no container has been assigned.
The EC program goes into the PSALMS EC website, does a screen scrape of the D&Rs, and downloads them into an Excel document. The program then downloads a Truck Dispatch Report (TDR) and Flight Dispatch Report (FDR) data base and a (Postal Service Alliance Leveraging Multiple Synergies) PSALMS billing file to search against. It takes the D&R and does the search to see if the unbilled D&R tag can be found on the TDR/FDR to identify a container that it can be assigned to. If the D&R is found, it is then compared to D&Rs already billed that are located in the PSALMS billing file. If there is a comparable D&R found, then the D&R is a duplicate and the D&R is not billed again. If the D&R is not found in the billing file, the container found is assigned and the D&R is billed using that container.
If the D&R is not found in the TDR/FDR database, the program goes into a master database to get the corresponding scans. If the scanned data reveals a DECONS, the D&R is deemed invalid and the D&R is not billed. If there is no DECONS scan and there is a CONS scan, then the CONS number is recorded and is used by the program to go into FAMIS to do an additional search of TDR and FDR data. If the program cannot find a container to assign the D&R tag to, then it is noted as “Research Required” and the engineers do more research on the D&R.

1.3.6 Coordinate the Exchange of Information
FedEx has a series of comprehensive daily, weekly, and monthly reports that coordinate information across the FedEx and Postal Service organizations. FedEx will communicate daily with the Postal Service through electronic reports, using EDI 214, Version 4010, as well as face-to-face meetings with on-site ramp personnel.
Daily reports include: [ * ]
Weekly reports include: [ * ]

FedEx has a series of comprehensive daily, weekly, and monthly reports that coordinate information across the organizations.
1.3.7 Provide Notification of Changes or Anticipated Changes
Monthly meetings between the Postal Service, THS, and FedEx will continue to communicate all planned changes in aircraft, tender times, and other operational issues. PTM Operations Administrators communicate mission-critical information via reporting and special alerts regarding sort-down times, actual and variance to plan, and inbound and outbound flight and truck exception activity in and out of all hubs and major sort locations. They also communicate ad hoc and alternate move activity. Flight schedules and area operating plans identify changes to Postal Service headquarters, area offices, and the local operating teams. FedEx and the Postal Service also hold local meetings at ramp locations to manage and correct local issues.
1.3.8 Correct Type and Quantity of Equipment
FedEx will continue to provide a Unit Load Device (ULD) matrix monthly, which lists the planned ULD equipment by day and by week for the month. This information is in the Planning Matrix which will be sent to Postal Service headquarters, the THS operator, and the local Postal Service representative in each market.
FedEx also maintains spare aircraft, crews, ULDs, vehicles, and operating equipment which are strategically positioned to ensure on-time operations and to ensure that we meet the Postal Service’s operational requirements. Figure 1-10 lists our ramp and ground equipment that is used to load, move, and manage all air cargo, including Postal Service mail.

1.3.9 Assist in Unloading or Loading ULDs to or from Surface Transportation
FedEx will continue to assist in unloading or loading ULDs to and from all surface transportation. FedEx has more than [ * ] ramp personnel across the network. FedEx personnel work with THS operators and subcontractors to ensure that the ULDs arriving at the origin or destination ramp are transferred to and from aircraft and trucks expeditiously. We have accommodated this assistance requirement over our 12-year history with the Postal Service and our personnel comply with this requirement routinely to move the mail. Our local ramp managers and staff have solid working relationships with the THS subcontractors at each ramp location, and those relationships operate to make the Postal Service processes work without interruption to ensure that we meet daily schedule demands.

1.3.10 Scan Material Handling Units (Required) or Postal MTE
FedEx performs scans on all handling units to ensure the chain of custody and accountability for all Postal Service handling units tendered to FedEx. All handling units will be scanned consistent with our established best practices. FedEx will perform possession scans, load scans, hub sort scans, hub nest scans, and delivery scans. Scan data will be aggregated and transmitted via electronic EDI to FedEx and Postal Service information technology systems. No scanning of Mail Transport Equipment (MTE) is required as FedEx is not performing the THS function.
1.3.11 Process Mail for Dispatch from the Aviation Supplier’s Facility to the Postal Service Facility
Upon request from the Postal Service, FedEx will process mail for movement via aircraft, tug and dolly, containerized trucks, and bulk trucks as necessary, from our facility to the Postal Service facility.
Day Sort Operations processes mail that arrives inbound to the hub from the field operations each day. This includes Priority Mail (PML), Express Mail (EML), First Class Mail (FCM), and Registered Mail (RML). During the week, any EML that was tendered and labeled as day product will be processed by the Day Sort Operations. Any EML that is not scanning correctly will be taken immediately to the Postal Service Re-Label Area. The Postal Service Re-Label Area has been given instructions on how to handle EML with distribution table problems.
1.3.12 Close-Out, Receive, and Dispatch All Surface Vehicles
FedEx will continue to work closely with all THS providers to close out, receive, and dispatch all surface vehicles. Our streamlined approach will be managed by the FedEx ramp manager at each service point.

1.3.13 Handle Overflow Volumes per Postal Service General Directions
FedEx will continue to work closely with the THS and the Postal Service to accept overflow volumes of mail. Our ramp managers, in collaboration with Postal Service managers, will make every effort to accept and process all overflow volumes when possible. FedEx ramp managers at service point locations will coordinate with Postal Service staff to identify overflow situations as early as possible, develop solutions to handle the overflow volumes, and resolve the overflow situation quickly and effectively with zero to minimal impact on mail delivery service schedules.
1.3.14 Cooperate With All Aviation Suppliers in the Transportation Service Chain
At both the PTM management level and the local ramp manager level, FedEx will cooperate with all suppliers in the transportation chain including air carriers, air cargo companies, airport staff, and THS service providers.
Areas of cooperation will include items such as sharing ground handling equipment when one party has equipment breakdowns, sharing joint-use ramps, and working collaboratively to deal with contingency events or irregular operations that would endanger on-time performance.
1.3.15 Enter Data Timely and Accurately
FedEx has developed a series of processes that depend on accurate and timely collection of data. The foundation for quickly capturing data in a highly accurate manner is the electronic identification of cargo as it moves from its origin to its destination. Bar code scanning establishes the foundation for FedEx’s near-100% accuracy and high speed of data capture for fast-paced and time-sensitive processes (Figure 1-11).
These data capture techniques and system updates allow customers to determine the progress of their cargo from origin to destination. The accuracy of the data capture also allows the network performance reports to be prepared and submitted to the Postal Service. FedEx has been at the forefront of the industry in the development of these rapid data capture technologies and has applied them to all processes in the Postal Service network.
1.3.16 Prepare Required Reports
FedEx has prepared and submitted all required and requested reports over the life of the current Postal Service contract. As requested by the Postal Service, FedEx will continue to provide these reports under the Air Cargo Network contract. Reports submitted under the current contract will be continued as is, or modified as required by the solicitation. These reports include:
[ * ]
In addition to these reports, FedEx will also provide new reports that are required to meet Postal Service requirements. In all reports, we will be diligent in providing accurate, timely information to enable Postal Service oversight and management of the ACN contract.

1.3.17 Perform Verification of Security Seals on Surface Transportation
FedEx will continue to verify all security seals on surface transportation prior to leaving our facility, as we have done since 2001. This will be a physical inspection of security seals on each trailer upon receipt by FedEx. The verification inspection will also be done prior to tendering the mail to the THS provider or Postal Service. The FedEx ramp manager at each ramp will ensure that all security seals are verified and logged by ramp staff. The process involves verifying the integrity of the seal on the back of the trailer and noting it on the Truck Dispatch Report paperwork.
1.3.18 Ensure the Security of All Mail
It is the mission of FedEx to protect and safeguard all mail from the time it is tendered to FedEx until the time FedEx tenders it to the THS or Postal Service. We accomplish this through a combination of training of staff, physical protection of facilities, and scanning of mail up to nine times from tender to FedEx through tender to THS or Postal Service. We also run background checks on all employees, and we conduct drug screening to ensure we have a drug-free workplace to decrease the likelihood of security incidents related to the mail while it is in our possession.
We provide initial and annual refresher training on mail handling and on the importance of the security of the mail to all FedEx employees involved in the contract. We have physical protection capabilities at each ramp location including closed-circuit video surveillance, facility access control, intrusion detection, and routine patrols by FedEx or local uniformed security staff. We maintain tight access control at all facilities to ensure that only authorized individuals are allowed into areas processing mail. Individuals attempting to enter or exit a sorting facility must successfully clear established screening checkpoints. These checkpoints:
| • | | Ensure that the employee/vendor has an active ID badge. |
| • | | Screen each employee/vendor for contraband through our x-ray and metal detecting devices. |
| • | | Ensure that all customer property remains in designated sorting areas. |
Through this combination of security procedures, security equipment, trained FedEx employees, and uniformed security staff, FedEx provides a heightened level of security to protect mail while it is in our possession.
1.4 Designation (Postal Service Performs Terminal Handling Service (THS) – Day Network)
During the term of the Transportation Agreement, processes were jointly developed by the Postal Service and FedEx resulting in well-designed routines that enable critical schedules to be met.
For the ACN Day Network contract, Fed Ex proposes that the Postal Service perform the THS operation.

1.5 Delivery and Specific Delivery Instructions (Postal Service Performs THS Operation on Day Network)
The Postal Service and FedEx have developed efficient and effective communications over their long relationship that allow proper focus on tactical issues of delivery and schedule.
FedEx and the Postal Service have developed efficient and effective coordination processes and procedures over our long relationship to expedite the delivery of mail. All FedEx employees, as they do today, will assist Postal Service employees in both the unloading of inbound surface vehicles and the loading and dispatching of outbound surface vehicles. FedEx routinely transmits reports to the Postal Service (see Section 1.3.16 for report details) on mail delivery status and operational issues. Regularly scheduled meetings enable a broader audience to discuss a wide range of topics, while daily communications focus on tactical issues such as extra volume and late tender. Daily interface between the Postal Service and FedEx occurs via email; phone; and face-to-face meetings among PTM engineers and management, FedEx ramp managers, and local Postal Service contract and operations managers.
1.5.1 Delivery – Day Network
FedEx will deliver mail to the Postal Service destination ramps on or before the latest delivery time in accordance with Attachment 12, Tender and Delivery Time Commitment. Since FedEx will not be performing the THS operation, the Postal Service or THS contractors will unload the mail from the ULDs received, scan it, and separate it according to Attachment 5, Separations, and then transfer it to Postal Service supplied MTE.
A daily FedEx matrix plan will be distributed to hubs and ramps, which will track changes in volumes and available lift, so that FedEx will be able to accommodate any increases in volume.
1.5.2 Delivery – Night Network
Not applicable to Day Network.
1.5.3 Saturday Delivery – Day Network
FedEx will deliver mail according to specifics of mail tendered on Saturday, as outlined in Attachment 3, Operating Plan, Day Network. All destinations are air destinations (service points served by aircraft) unless identified in Attachment 12 as surface destinations (service points served by truck).
1.6 Boarding Priority
FedEx will adhere to Postal Service boarding priorities as we have done successfully on the Transportation Agreement since 2001.
In accordance with Postal Service priorities, FedEx will adhere to the boarding priority described in the following sections.
1.6.1 Boarding Priority – Day Network
FedEx will load accepted mail in the following boarding preference order, as specified by the Postal Service.
1. | Registered (CON-CON) Mail |

4. | HAZMAT, regardless of mail class |
5. | Domestic Priority and Express Mail |
Any repossession of mail by the Postal Service without exercising the rights outlined in this RFP under Repossession of Mail by the Postal Service will be determined by the Postal Service designee, depending on circumstances.
1.6.2 Boarding Priority – Night Network
Not applicable to Day Network.
1.7 Frequency
FedEx will provide aviation supplier support to meet all Postal Service frequency of service requirements
The frequency of service for the Day Network is based on 6 days of Postal Service delivery, Tuesday through Sunday. This provides approximately 307 operating days annually (308 in a leap year). Holidays excluded are discussed in Section 1.14.4 of this proposal.
1.8 Mail Assignment and Transport – Day Network
Mail assignment and transport, the heart of the current Transportation Agreement, will also be the core of the new ACN contract and will continue to be a focus for feedback and improvement.
FedEx will prepare and deliver flight schedules to the Postal Service at least 30 days in advance of the first day of the operating period. These schedules are developed by PTM and are part of the Network Operating Plan as operational documents that convert the plan into action. After receipt of flight schedules, the Postal Service will create dispatch routing instructions based on FedEx flight schedules that subsequently are shown on the Postal Service D&R tag.
Mail Assignment and Transport Process – Day Network defines how the Postal Service will give FedEx tendered mail and illustrates the steps required in the planning process for assignment and transport, as shown inFigure 1-12. “All Mail Due FedEx Time” is outlined in Attachment 12 and is the time that the last piece of mail tendered must be in FedEx’s hands.

1.10 Aviation Provider Planned Accommodation – Day Network
|
With the largest air cargo fleet in the world, FedEx is better able to absorb changes in Postal Service volumes and can provide greater flexibility to the Postal Service than any other air cargo carrier. |
FedEx will guarantee up to 105% of the planned capacity in the Day Network for each origin daily. Should tendered mail exceed 105% of planned capacity, FedEx has the option to refuse the excess; however, throughout the current relationship, FedEx frequently has handled volumes tendered by the Postal Service exceeding its guarantee. Such flexibility is part of our commitment to providing the most dependable, reliable, and customer-focused service to the Postal Service.
1.11 Aviation Provider Planned Accommodation – Night Network
Not applicable to Day Network.
1.12 Treatment of Exceptional Types of Mail
|
Over the past 6 years, FedEx has integrated the special handling requirements associated with the increasing amounts of exceptional types of mail into our normal daily operations. |
Since 2006, the volume of exceptional mail types, including lives, perishables, and HAZMAT, has increased continuously. FedEx provides rigorous training in the handling of exceptional types of mail as part of the training for new employees and annual refresher training.
1.12.1 Treatment of Live Mail
For live mail handling, FedEx will continue to use a multi-step process that covers all aspects of receipt, verification of live mail viability, inspection, scanning, loading, and unloading of both perishable and live mail. The FedEx guidelines include all requirements outlined in the Postal Service Domestic Mail Manual 601, Subsection 9.3.
Prior to contract award, as specified in the Statement of Work, FedEx and the Postal Service will negotiate an attachment that lays out the specifics of transportation of perishable and live mail. Because FedEx has been handling these exceptional types of mail for six years, we expect minimal issues.
1.12.2 Treatment of Perishables
Perishable mail is treated in the same manner as that described in Section 1.12.1.
1.12.3 Treatment of Registered Mail
To accurately track each piece of Registered Mail, FedEx will provide the Postal Service with the following information:
| • | | Aircraft compartment location |
| • | | Actual flight departure time |
| • | | Any accident or irregularities |
| • | | D&R tags indicating final destination air stop. |
FedEx will send an email alerting the Postal Service of Registered Mail that has failed to make its planned dispatch; we will then await instructions from the Postal Service.

1.12.4 Treatment of Hazardous Material (HAZMAT)
FedEx follows and will continue to follow all applicable Federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, OSHA and FAA rules and regulations in the handling of HAZMAT. We provide extensive training to certify Dangerous Goods Specialists to ensure that all Postal Service HAZMAT will be handled in accordance with regulatory requirements. FedEx personnel take annual refresher training on the handling of HAZMAT, which means that all FedEx personnel have up-to-date information on any changes to procedures or policies as well as the review of current procedures. FedEx will comply with all Postal Service requirements for the tagging and treatment of HAZMAT as follows:
| • | | Tagging of hazardous materials |
| • | | ORM-D Air is for air and surface transport;ORM-D is for surface transport only. |
| • | | Division Class 6.2 is permitted only for medical/veterinary use, research or laboratory certification for public health. The shipper must pack these goods to withstand shocks, pressure changes, and other handling conditions. |
| • | | Division Class 9 is for miscellaneous materials presenting hazards during transport (solid dry ice, elevated temperature substances, environmentally hazardous substances, lifesaving appliances, and asbestos). |
| • | | Hazardous and Dangerous Goods and all other hazardous material. |
| • | | Assignment of hazardous materials |
| • | | Must be tendered at least 2 hours prior to final tender time of flight. |
| • | | Manifest copy and items must be handed to a FedEx representative 2 hours prior to closeout time of flight. |
| • | | Verification of postal manifest includes checking the number of pieces, weight, inclusion of appropriate shipper’s certification in aircraft load manifest, and completeness of pilot notification paperwork. |
| • | | Documentation of refusal to handle HAZMAT includes name, address of mailer and FedEx location, type and amount of HAZMAT, and reason for refusal. |
| • | | Procedures for HAZMAT spills, releases, incidents, and emergencies. In the 12 years that FedEx has worked with the Postal Service, there have been NO exceptions to these procedures: |
| • | | While the HAZMAT is in the possession of FedEx, but not onboard aircraft, damaged HAZMAT items must not be loaded. |
| • | | For items causing injury, illness, significant property damage, or disruption of operations, FedEx will complete PS Form 1770 and submit to the Postal Service. |
| • | | If there is an incident while onboard aircraft, FedEx must complete DOT Form F 5800.1. Within 24 hours, a copy of the form must be sent to the COR. Such incidents include HAZMAT cargo spills that come into contact with mail. |
1.13 Offshore Capacity Requirement – Day Network
|
FedEx staffed ramps at all required offshore airports enables us to meet all offshore capacity requirements from Day One of the contract. |
Capacity to handle the mail volume is critical within the continental United States, but capacity for offshore deliveries to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands is equally critical. FedEx has, and will continue to provide, at a minimum, the daily volumes required in the solicitation, shown inFigure 1-13.

Mail destined for St. Thomas and St. Croix, Virgin Islands, is handled through San Juan, Puerto Rico. FedEx will accommodate any increase in capacity through the planning process and by mutual agreement with the Postal Service.
1.14 Volume Commitment – General Information
|
Throughout the 12-year Transportation Agreement relationship, FedEx has generally had sufficient capacity to handle whatever volume the Postal Service required. |
FedEx will continue our 12-year record of successfully supporting the Postal Service’s dynamic volume requirements and of meeting service level agreements (SLAs) for aviation services. Our knowledge and understanding of the Postal Service mission, operations, culture, and technology provides a non-disruptive, no-risk option for the Postal Service – no learning curve, no initial training for existing employees, no changes in processes. Essentially, all activities will continue in the manner that the Postal Service has enjoyed since the beginning of the strategic alliance with FedEx.
FedEx has the fleet, pilots, facilities, and support staff – including [ * ] A&P-certified aircraft mechanics – to immediately support future Postal Service volume schedules and forecasts. From Day 1 of the new contract, FedEx can handle any Postal Service volume based on historical volumes. A one-day sample from a peak week in December 2011 that clearly shows our ability to support Postal Service volume schedules and forecasts is shown inFigure 1-14.
Figure 1-14. Daily Volume Commitment versus Actual Volume
FedEx has the capacity in its fleet to support any practical volume that the Postal Service can request, as evidenced by this December example from 2011.

| • | | The day after a non-widely observed holiday. |
1.14.6 Volume Commitment – Holiday – Night Network
Not applicable to Day Network.
1.15 Operating Periods
FedEx will plan and operate the Day Network in accordance with Attachment 1, Postal Service Operating Periods. Because FedEx has been providing services for 12 years based on Transportation Agreement operating periods very similar to those specified in Attachment 1, the transition to the new contract will be virtually risk-free and indistinguishable to the Postal Service. FedEx will provide to the Postal Service our monthly operating plan 30 days before the beginning of the operating period, and will specify the specific type of airline ULD per origin/destination, destination of airline ULD – direct (bypass), and destination of airline ULD – mixed (to be sorted at hub).
1.16 Ordering Process – Introduction
|
FedEx will use the proven ordering process used successfully under the current Transportation Agreement to meet Postal Service peak and non-peak volume requirements. |
The Postal Service process for ordering air transportation for mail to and from destinations in the contiguous 48 states and Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands is provided at Day 120 for non-peak periods and Day 150 for peak periods.
Because the current ordering process is very similar to that outlined in the ACN statement of work (SOW), FedEx has already demonstrated the ability to work within the specified timeframes. Careful planning means that mail tendered to FedEx will arrive on time at the proper service point, thus maintaining the Postal Service’s historical record for quality service.

1.16.1 Ordering Process – Non-Peak – Day Network
The non-peak Day Network ordering process will begin with the Postal Service providing FedEx a request for mail volumes that delineates each lane pair (origin and destination) based on separate plans for Tuesday/Wednesday, Thursday/Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Volumes by lane pair will be specified in cubic feet.Figure 1-16provides further details of this process.

Figure 1-16. Ordering Process – Non-Peak Day Network
Detailed planning and coordination with the Postal Service ensures that FedEx will meet contract delivery schedules and volumes.
FedEx and the Postal Service agree on the delivery mechanism of orders and responses. For bypass containers allocated in lanes with 110% capacity of ULD configuration for planned aircraft, the Postal Service and FedEx will agree, during the planning process, that bypass and mixed containers will be built at origin service points.
1.16.2 Ordering Process – Non-Peak – Night Network
Not applicable to Day Network.
1.16.3 Ordering Process – Peak – Day Network
The 4 or 5 weeks that make up each peak operating period include Christmas week so that the requested volume capacity is sufficient to meet Postal Service volume requirements for holiday mail delivery. Both non-peak and peak volume forecasting specify individual origin and destination lane pairs and are expressed in cubic feet.Figure 1-17provides further details of this process.

1.17 Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Including Scanning and Data Transmission
|
FedEx has the infrastructure and experience with EDI to provide the Postal Service with a low-risk solution for rapid transmission of high-volume data streams. |
FedEx will transmit and receive status and operational data according to the EDI standards as required in the solicitation, Attachment 7, Electronic Data Interchange Service Requirements. Additionally, we will transmit payment information using the Attachment 7 standards for financial data. We will use the standards shown inFigure 1-18for transactions of volume and relevant scans with the Postal Service.
Figure 1-18. Postal Service–Accepted EDI Standards for Scanning and Data Transmissions
FedEx will use these EDI standards for status and operational data as well as for payment information transmission with the Postal Service.
| | |
Standard | | Purpose |
CARDIT | | To convey detailed information about domestic shipments. |
| |
RESDIT | | To receive status information at the handling unit level for domestic mail shipments. |
| |
INVOIC ADV | | Message claiming payment for goods and services supplied under agreed-upon conditions; also serves as specification for Debit Note and Credit Note messages. Postal Service implementation is to provide invoice advice to its transport providers of the items, which comprise amounts payable for transportation services. |
| |
CLAIMS | | Message claiming payment for goods and services supplied under agreed-upon conditions; also serves as specification for Debit Note and Credit Note messages. Postal Service implementation is to provide mechanism for its transport providers to report claims for the mail handling items which comprise amounts payable for transportation services. |
EDI based on the UN/EDIFACT format is ideal technology for the high volume of transactions that will be processed, based on contract requirements. FedEx owns the world’s largest private digitized, value-added network (VAN) for business-to-business data exchange, FedExNet®, which allows us to easily accommodate large data streams. We have successfully used the FedExNet® VAN for the Postal Service since 2001 to transmit and receive operational and status data, as well as payment data. We are very familiar with the Attachment 7 EDI requirements and standards, as we have used CARDIT and RESDIT protocols extensively since 2005 for international postal customers.
The status and operational data, as well as payment data, will be transmitted over the VAN as shown inFigure 1-19. Primary files on the FedEx side reside in the Scanning Database, which stores and transmits scans and service files (shown as SRS, Summary Reporting System) and the PSALMS Revenue Database, which stores invoice and reconciliation files (shown as REV). With EDI, the Postal Service will receive the invoice and reconciliation data from FedEx via a secure mailbox on FedExNet®.

1.22 Payment Procedures
|
The basis of all payments is the scanned information that we will transmit promptly to ensure accurate and complete invoicing and payments. |
In this section we present details of payment procedures, including:
| • | | Rates and Payment General |
| • | | Payment Processing – Day Network – Per Cube |
1.22.1 Rates and Payment General
The basis of all rates and payments is the scans, beginning with the possession/load scan and ending with the delivery scan at the completion of the FedEx delivery to the Postal Service. FedEx understands that if the delivery scan is not submitted or is not at the correct location, there will be no payment. FedEx team members take great care in handling our customers’ packages. Postal Service shipments enter our sorting system at specific times, are scanned, and then secured in the appropriate containers, trailers, or aircraft.
The FedEx payment process includes electronic remittance advice and electronic funds transfer (EFT) to reduce much of the cost and paperwork involved in issuing payments. Both of these tools reduce check processing costs, while ensuring quick and accurate application of payment. Remittance advice file processing is automatically included with the EDI invoices.
1.22.1.1 Scan Requirements
FedEx will comply with all scanning and data transmission requirements as stated in the solicitation. FedEx leads the transportation industry in scanning and tracking technology. Packages are scanned during our pickup, sort, and delivery processes by handlers and by automated overhead scanners and scanning systems. Scanning enables FedEx and the Postal Service to observe the movement of packages electronically from pickup to delivery for an added level of security and end-to-end tracking of the mail. Using a variety of wireless data collection devices such as PScan and PowerPad as shown inFigure 1-22, we scan D&R tags at each hand-off point, capturing a variety of shipment information, including:
| | |
• Dispatch and routing number • Origin/destination location information • Ship date | | • Exception scans • Type of service • Proof of delivery. |

1.22.2.6 Economic Adjustment
FedEx will comply with all requirements in the solicitation section on Economic Adjustment. Only the non-fuel line haul rate will be economically adjusted. We will use the economic adjustments in Attachment 10, Pricing.
1.22.2.7 Hub Sort Scan
FedEx will comply with all requirements in the solicitation on providing Hub Sort Scan at the appropriate hubs as part of our normal process. We agree that the Postal Service will pay for hub sort only where the sorts are supported by EDI scan information.
1.22.2.8 Re-Labeling Charge
FedEx will comply with all requirements and accepts all statements in the solicitation for this section. FedEx understands that the Postal Service will pay an additional charge for replacing a D&R tag that is missing or becomes illegible. The Postal Service will provide equipment to FedEx to perform this function.
Re-labeling is an example of our commitment to the Postal Service. In 2002, the Postal Service approached FedEx, requesting that we take over the re-labeling function at the Memphis hub. From the time that we assumed responsibility for this area, most, if not all pieces, move out the same day that they arrive at the sort. FedEx re-labels approximately [ * ] pieces per day on a non-contingency day. Approximately [ * ] times per month the Postal Service declares a contingency (meaning its SAMS equipment is down in the local market) and the unlabeled handling units are sent to the Memphis hub, where FedEx labels the mail. In these situations, we label between [ * ] and [ * ] handling units of mail and introduce them back into the network, thereby allowing the Postal Service to accomplish mail delivery service to its customers.
1.22.2.9 Fuel Adjustment
FedEx agrees that the Postal Service will make a monthly fuel adjustment to the fuel line haul rate in accordance with the solicitation section on Fuel Adjustment.
1.22.3 Payment Processing – Day Network – Per Pound
FedEx will provide service paid by the cube for the Day Network, so this optional service will not be provided.

1.23 Reconciliation Process
|
FedEx will work collaboratively with the Postal Service to reconcile and resolve all payment issues as expeditiously as possible. |
FedEx will comply with the requirements in the solicitation section entitled Reconciliation Process. The Postal Service Revenue Team and the FedEx Revenue Team have worked together since 2001 to refine many different reconciliation items. Through constant diligence in monitoring the revenue stream for anomalies, we have collaboratively developed the current reconciliation process. With this knowledge and experience with the Postal Service reconciliation process, FedEx will continue to review and refine the reconciliation process to support the Postal Service’s reconciliation requirements and process on the ACN contract.
1.24 Mode of Transportation to Service Each Air Stop – (Mail Assignment and Transport) as Identified in Tender and Delivery Specifications Listed in Attachment 3 and Attachment 4
|
As one of the most reliable, dependable, and largest air cargo carriers in the world, with a record of successfully supporting the Postal Service since 2001, we will be able to provide all modes of transportation to service each air stop on Day 1 of the ACN contract. |
The mode of transportation to service each air stop will be provided in the Monthly Operating Plan, which provides the details for each operating period. We will tailor our plans, including modes of transportation, to Postal Service needs. In general, for the Day Network (Tuesday through Sunday, excluding Saturday), we use aircraft. On Saturday, we use a combination of air and truck transport. We provide here an overview of our aircraft and truck fleet.
The FedEx Express aircraft fleet is shown inFigure 1-22. In addition, FedEx has on-call arrangements to lease additional aircraft to handle peak volume and other contingencies.

2.0 Contingency Plan
[ * ]
2.1 Aircraft Mechanical Delays or Cancellations
[ * ]
2.2 A Breakdown of Any Maintenance Support or Ground Handling Equipment and Duties at Any Outstation
[ * ]
2.3 Delays, Cancellations, or Aircraft Weight Limitations Caused by Weather Conditions
[ * ]
2.4 Airport Closings per FAA
[ * ]
2.5 Labor Disruptions Including, But Not Limited to, Walkouts or Strikes
[ * ]
2.6 Staffing Shortages Relating to Medical or Other Emergencies
[ * ]
2.7 Delays Caused by Environmental Issues Such as Fuel Spills, Chemical Spills, and Other HAZMAT
[ * ]
2.8 Other Conditions That May Affect On-Time Performance
In addition to the contingency conditions addressed in Section 2 of this proposal, FedEx knows that there are a multitude of additional situations, from snow to volcanoes to typhoons, that have the potential to impact our aviation network and our support for the Postal Service. In all cases, GOCC, in close collaboration with PTM, anticipates contingency events, assesses possible impacts, tailors and implements contingency plans, performs all required actions, and manages the contingency situation through to closure. FedEx’s primary objective in dealing with contingencies is to ensure that we continue to provide all required mail delivery services according to Postal Service contract schedules.
2.9 Training of Employees on Contingency Plan
Contingencies, from blizzards to hurricanes to floods, are a way of life for FedEx employees. Our staff has to be prepared at any given moment to respond to contingencies, implement proven plans, and continue service to our customers. Our employees, from the GOCC contingency planners and managers, to the PTM management team, to the ramp staff at each FedEx airport location, are trained to deal with events and circumstances beyond their immediate control. FedEx employees receive initial and annual recurrence training for contingency plans and response actions for each FedEx airport location. They receive additional training when contingency plans are revised or local procedures are updated. Training records are maintained in employee personnel files and include training received, test scores, and certifications

1.0 Night Network Operating Plan
|
FedEx, which has the world’s largest cargo aircraft fleet, will build upon our 12 years of successful support of the United States Postal Service to meet its Air Cargo Network requirements for mail delivery with consistently reliable and dependable service. |
FedEx will provide a Postal Service Night Network that will deliver all air transportation and ancillary services to all required service points identified by the Postal Service in the Air Cargo Network (ACN) solicitation from Day 1 of the contract. We possess the immediate capacity to provide this service five days per week at the historical non-peak and peak volume levels identified in Attachment 2, Air Stops & Projected Volumes of the solicitation. As illustrated inFigure 1-1, this network includes all 146 required NIght Network service points and 5 FedEx hubs.

Figure 1-1. FedEx Air Cargo Night Network
FedEx understands the Postal Service culture, processes, routing, and tender requirements better than any other
air freight company.
Single Vendor Network Benefits
Use of a single carrier will provide the Postal Service with needed efficiencies and cost savings. In a multiple-carrier environment, capacity is deployed less efficiently, adding cost and additional handling unnecessarily. For example, if a late Postal Service shipment on the day network misses the tender time, the Postal Service would have the option of directing the single carrier to move the product on the night network and enable the mail to be delivered to Postal customers on time. With multiple carriers, the costs of monitoring and coordinating activities would increase for the Postal Service. Policies and procedures for the carriers would inevitably differ, creating opportunities for errors, confusion, and potential delay of mail delivery.

FedEx and the Postal Service have established and will maintain a shared aviation network that has enabled the Postal Service to significantly improve the service provided to its customers while continuously reducing the cost. For the past 12 years, FedEx, as the majority carrier, has transported Express, Priority, and First Class mail to and from all of the points covered in this solicitation. Since 2006, we have also carried HAZMAT, live, perishable, and registered mail. As the largest carrier for the Postal Service, FedEx has provided this service at historical volume levels through peak days of more than [ * ] to low-volume days covering non-widely observed holidays.
FedEx has been a collaborative business partner with the Postal Service for the past 12 years, and has been extremely responsive to requests for increasing volume, expanding service coverage, adding new products with unique handling characteristics, and maintaining cost controls. We believe that a single-provider network, with its operating efficiencies, extensive network connections, service capabilities and lower cost structure, will provide the greatest long-term benefits for the Postal Service, particularly at a time of fiscal need and budget awareness across the nation. FedEx has the aircraft, equipment, capacity, network reach, and management capability to continue serving the Postal Service in an efficient and low-cost, single-vendor operation well into the future.
The ongoing strategic alliance between FedEx and the Postal Service under the Postal Service Transportation Agreement (Transportation Agreement) brings noteworthy advantages to a renewal contract for the ACN. The Postal Service and FedEx jointly developed many of the processes and procedures that are currently being employed in the Transportation Agreement network. No other air cargo carrier has the benefit of this long and efficient operational experience with the Postal Service. FedEx has worked with the Postal Service to optimize schedules and tender times, eliminate excessive cost, and increase efficiencies, as shown inFigure 1-2.

Figure 1-2. FedEx Key Differentiators
FedEx has a number of key differentiators for operation of the Postal Service Air Cargo Network.
| | |
FedEx Key Services | | Differentiators |
| |
Air Cargo Network: FedEx has the world’s largest cargo aircraft fleet to meet the Postal Service’s aviation requirements with reliable and dependable service. | | • With more than 634 aircraft, FedEx has the world’s largest fleet of cargo aircraft. • We are the only company with proven experience supporting requirements of size, scope, and scale of the Postal Service ACN procurement. • FedEx is the only aviation supplier with staffed operating bases at all ACN Night Network airports. • FedEx is the only aviation supplier to the Postal Service that operates 24/7 with no exclusion for holiday surge and weekend support. • Our ISO 9001:2008 Certification was renewed for 2012. • The FedEx fleet includes more than [ * ] trunk and more than [ * ] feeder spare aircraft that are strategically placed throughout North America to protect service. |
| |
Management:FedEx possesses the skill, financial depth, and management tools required to engage and deliver on cost, schedule, and performance expectations. | | • FedEx uses our Quality Driven Management (QDM) approach and methods are built on the proven premise that higher quality lowers costs, improves service levels, and enhances the customer experience. • Over time, QDM has contributed to FedEx being the 6th most admired company on Fortune’s World’s Most Admired Companies list and No. 7 on the Reputation Institute’s list of socially responsible firms in the United States. • FedEx’s leading edge technologies (scanning, data transmission, and communications) will deliver superior aviation support to the Postal Service. • FedEx was the first-ever service company to win the Malcolm Baldrige Quality award, demonstrating our long-standing commitment to service quality. |
| |
Past Performance:FedEx has operated with the Postal Service for 12 years. | | • We have successfully met Service Level Requirements for the Postal Service throughout our 12-year service history, as shown inFigure 1-3. |
| |
Transition:An award to FedEx ensures the Postal Service a no-risk, no-cost contract transition. | | • Our knowledge and understanding of the Postal Service mission, operations, culture, and technology, and our business partner approach means a non-disruptive, no-risk transition to the ACN contract. |
| |
Innovation and Investment:FedEx is an innovation leader in air cargo logistics. | | • FedEx is ahead of plan to increase the fuel efficiency of our pickup and delivery fleet by 20% between 2005 and 2020. • In FY12, approximately half of our $4 billion in capital expenditures is related to modernizing our air fleet. • FedEx and the Postal Service invented the Transportation Agreement network design, significantly improving the performance and reducing the cost of the air transport service, proving that our vendor-customer team excels in innovative practices. |
On-Time Delivery for the Postal Service
FedEx has achieved service levels outlined in the Transportation Agreement in alliance with the Postal Service since 2001. Throughout that time, our extensive cargo Night Network transport system has demonstrated our capacity and capability to handle the historical volumes required by the Postal Service on weekdays during non-peak and peak periods. FedEx has delivered high-quality services that have consistently met or exceeded Postal Service mail delivery service requirements as shown inFigure 1-3.
Each of the FedEx Night Network airports across the nation is currently staffed with all necessary personnel to manage the receipt, outbound loading, and inbound delivery of Postal Service cargo. FedEx accomplishes this through an advanced hub-and-spoke system that ensures meeting delivery time requirements in all 146 ramp locations. FedEx is the only air cargo carrier that serves all 146 Postal Service locations and, as we have stated, FedEx has the world’s largest air cargo fleet with 634 aircraft

serving airports in more than 220 countries and territories in all regions of the world. We can provide the capacity the Postal Service has outlined in Attachment 2 when and where it is needed without relying on availability of commercial, wet lease, or dry lease aircraft. In addition, FedEx is continuously upgrading our fleet to offer needed capacities more efficiently and economically.
Program and Operational Support for the Postal Service
The FedEx Postal Transportation Management Department (PTM), as described in Volume 1, Section 2.5, has been in place since the inception of the contract relationship in 2001 and is a dedicated Program Management Office (PMO) whose single mission is service to the Postal Service. FedEx Managing Director Ron Stevens has directed this department since the inception of the FedEx–Postal Service strategic alliance. This department was created as the interface for the Postal Service and designed to be a one-stop shop for all things Postal. Regardless of the issue, the Postal Service communicates with a single department. We recruited the best engineers in the country from our Air, Ground and Freight Services (AGFS) Division; they are knowledgeable in both ramp and hub operations and the planning process to support the Postal Service. These engineers, who are strategically domiciled around the country and aligned with the Postal Service Areas, work daily with the Postal Service on tactical issues affecting service. They work with Global Network Planning (GNP) and the Global Operations Control Center (GOCC) on issues regarding additional lift requirements as required. The PTM engineers also work closely with local management on all operational issues. When an exception occurs, the PTM engineers develop a corrective action and communicate it to the Postal Service in the local, area, and headquarters groups.
The engineers are also responsible for developing and communicating the processes for any changes. The group has two dedicated engineers responsible for building the planning matrix each month. They work closely with the Postal Service planners on the volume request for each schedule period and act as a secondary check on lane-level volume from one operating period to the next. PTM also has a dedicated Service Assurance Manager and two Operations Administrators. They provide reports and status updates throughout the day on flight and sort activity as well as issues that may impact service, such as contingency plans for weather events e.g. hurricanes and winter storms. The PTM team has experienced little turnover within the group since its inception. We feel this consistency in leadership at the management and engineer level has contributed to on-going success of this alliance.
PTM coordinates with the FedEx AGFS Division, which operates the air cargo network, and with GNP and GOCC that plan and manage flight operations, including the movement of Postal Service mail. AGFS operates the cargo system through its main Memphis World Hub and through four subordinate organizations that operate FedEx ramps at airports within their respective regions.
PTM coordinates with AGFS headquarters in Memphis, TN, and with the field ramp location managers. AGFS has an extensive management team to oversee the actual flight and logistics operations as illustrated inFigure 1-4. This figure shows the customer-focused FedEx team supporting the Postal Service, leveraging the capabilities of AGFS, and managed by ramp managers at each service point to deliver mail. PTM also coordinates with GNP and GOCC for Postal Service mail scheduling as well as flight operations for the Night Network.

Figure 1-4. Customer-Focused FedEx Mail Service Delivery Team
PTM coordinates with FedEx’s AGFS, which operates the air cargo network and, with GNP and GOCC that plan and manage flight operations, including the movement of Postal Service mail
PTM is the focal point for the Postal Service for planning and managing delivery services, which are carried out by AGFS and the ramp managers and staff at each service point. This coordination involves managing freight volumes requested by the Postal Service, planning each monthly operating period, and daily operational activity such as loading and launching aircraft, receiving, and tendering freight to the Postal Service at the destination. Also critical to movement of Postal Service mail is the GOCC, as it operates the aviation services that move the mail.
Packages are scanned and the scan data is transmitted to system collection points constantly as they move through the system. This allows comprehensive reporting of results of each day’s activity. PTM, GNP, and AGFS work together using well-defined and comprehensive communication channels. Operating the most sophisticated air cargo network in the world requires immediate communication, the ability to modify logistics operations swiftly and accurately, and total command of an exceptionally large fleet of aircraft. This is a complex management task, performed by demanding, outstanding, and talented professionals.
1.1 Tender and Delivery Times by Air Stop
|
FedEx is the only aviation supplier with staffed operating bases at all ACN Night Network airports. |
Specific tender and delivery times by air stop, including number and type of aircraft, are listed in Attachment 12, Tender and Delivery Time Commitment. FedEx has an exemplary record over its 12-year history on the job. FedEx has consistently met or exceeded the tender time delivery requirement as shown inFigure 1-3. Even during our most challenging operating period in December, with volume surges at twice our non-peak demand and extreme weather, FedEx still met the Postal Service on-time delivery requirement.

1.2 Operational Components of the SOW
|
FedEx has consistently met service level requirements for the Postal Service throughout our 12-year service history. |
Throughout our 12-year alliance with the Postal Service, FedEx has worked with the Postal Service to develop many of the processes that are now used to perform aviation support under the Transportation Agreement.Figure 1-5 illustrates the proven process flow from acceptance at the origin to delivery at the destination that we will use on the ACN contract.
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720049_1.jpg)
Figure 1-5. FedEx Air Transport Mail Delivery Service Process
FedEx has developed a series of mature processes to move the air cargo from origin to destination, consistently meeting the contractual delivery times.
As shown inFigure 1-5, FedEx accepts the cargo at the origin ramp and flies it to the FedEx hub airport, where it is distributed to its correct outbound container and loaded onto an aircraft to fly to the destination airport. Each lane is managed through established scanning procedures to ensure the correct routing of the mail from origin to destination. A “lane” describes the origin point to destination point routing of the mail, for example from origin city A to destination city B, e.g., from Atlanta to Albuquerque. The main processes in the transport of the mail as specified in the solicitation are:

1.3.1 Coordination and Oversight of FedEx Operations
With responsibility for scheduling and management across the FedEx Express global network, GNP and GOCC work closely with PTM to ensure on-time delivery of the mail. The GOCC (Figure 1-7) is fully staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year with highly skilled and experienced airline operations management specialists.
The GOCC is one of the most sophisticated control centers in the transportation industry, with state-of-the-art facilities, information systems, and communications, and proven plans and processes based on real-world contingency management experience and expertise. All day, every day, the GOCC team responds to and overcomes challenges, including severe weather systems, flight delays, emergency maintenance events, and even natural disasters. The GOCC supervises and protects FedEx team members and assets while correcting situations that could impact mail delivery service to the Postal Service.
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720051_1.jpg)
Figure 1-7. FedEx’s GOCC
Our Global Operations Control Center is state-of-the art in managing a large airline fleet traversing the nation and the world.
FedEx has the facilities, tools, processes, and staff to effectively respond to contingency situations. We were an industry leader in collaborating with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in responding to the events of September 11, 2001 and the restoration of aviation support for the Postal Service. FedEx belongs to the Domestic Events Network (DEN), which was established on the morning of September 11. DEN is a 24/7, unclassified interagency telephone conference – sponsored by the security arm of the FAA – dedicated to real-time coordination of air security issues.
FedEx has a back-up center located in Collierville, TN, that operates the network in live mode every Monday so that this contingency control center remains fully capable of assuming operational control of our global network in an emergency.
1.3.2 Facility Support and Administrative Functions
The goal of facility management at FedEx is to enable on-time delivery of Postal Service mail and all non-postal FedEx products. PTM ensures, through its coordination with AGFS, that local facility support and administration functions are present at each airport local ramp, ensuring mail movement, hub support, scanning and data capture, billing support, communications, and other functions. The PTM Department, described in Section 1.0, coordinates all necessary administrative and facility support at each of the FedEx ramp and hub locations throughout the network.
As an example, FedEx facility support includes on-site maintenance staff at each of our ramp and hub locations. . We have more than [ * ] ground support and material handling equipment mechanics at FedEx ramps and hubs across the country. We have a planned and executed preventive maintenance program and an equipment replacement plan and schedule to ensure that equipment is operational, capable, and available to support service delivery requirements. We ensure that gate space for our aircraft, loading and surface handling equipment, scanning equipment, and other facility requirements as established in Section 1.3.8, are available.
1.3.3 Monitor Performance
The Postal Service and FedEx have developed, over the years of joint operations, and will continue to provide a series of monitoring control points that provide a high degree of confidence for on-time and reliable mail delivery services. We will continue to operate these control points. Performance is monitored

by PTM through our well-established data capture capability that provides snapshots of our performance at 15-minute intervals, and is summarized to show our performance during the day and at the end of day, end of week, and end of monthly operating periods. Sections 1.3.5, 1.3.10, and 1.3.15 further describe key points of data capture and distribution that provide performance monitoring input.
We have email distribution lists in place the for the Night Network which include Postal Service local operators, FedEx local operators, and the area and national headquarters personnel for both organizations. Emails of the Day Summaries contain the daily recap data and an attached Excel spreadsheet providing delay details and explanatory information. The reports are prepared in a.m. and p.m. versions and are distributed by the Senior Operations Administrator in PTM with the departmental email ID: PTM_OPS@fedex.com.
We distribute a Weekly Service Level Report–Adjusted and a Weekly Analysis Review presentation to management in several organizations including PTM and Postal Service Air Transportation Operations. We list in Section 1.3.16 in this volume a number of reports that we prepare, including information about the intended audience, a brief description of each report, the distribution timeline, and report frequency.Figure 1-8 lists some benefits of the FedEx performance monitoring activities.
Figure 1-8. FedEx Performance Monitoring Benefits to the Postal Service
The Postal Service and FedEx have developed, over the years of joint operations, a series of monitoring control points that provide a high degree of confidence for on-time and reliable mail delivery services.
| | |
FedEx Performance Monitoring Features | | Benefits to the Postal Service |
| |
Management review of daily Ramp-to-Ramp Report | | Assists in identifying operational issues and root causes, leading to corrective action |
| |
Monitoring of hub operations with daily Roll-Over Scans and Analysis Reports for potential mail delay | | Ensures that mail is identified at the hub for re-routing to ensure timely processing |
| |
Monitoring and verification that changes are understood locally via email, telephone, and meetings | | Ensures coordination throughout the network when operating plans change, so that all staff are alerted and disruption to mail movement is minimized |
| |
Monitoring of monthly service level reports to identify any problems in the network and review with appropriate department | | Ensures that sorting and other operations are efficient and meet on-time delivery schedules |
| |
Provision and monitoring of mission-critical Day Summaries that detail flights more than 60 minutes late departing major hubs or major sorting locations | | Establishes the ability throughout the Night Network to adjust schedules to minimize mail delay from its origin to its destination |
| |
Monitoring of national weather daily from the FedEx Meteorological Department | | Establishes the ability to adjust Night Network flight schedules, re-routing, and hub operations to maximize on-time delivery of mail |
1.3.4 Provide Feedback to the Postal Service
FedEx has Operations Administrators who track performance daily. We provide updates on Postal Service transport parameters with regard to system performance throughout the day, with recaps at the end of each operation. Thus, feedback to the Postal Service occurs on both a formal and informal basis, with our PTM informally discussing both normal and unusual operations with their counterparts in the Postal Service and formally through the documented reports that we describe in Section 3.3.16.
1.3.5 Ensure the Integrity of Data Entry
FedEx has eliminated manual data entry to reduce keying errors. In addition, we perform root cause analysis for abnormalities discovered in the data. We have developed a program that validates the accuracy of Dispatch and Routing (D&R) numbers to eliminate duplicate entries. The Error Correction (EC) program searches D&R tags that have been identified as not being billed because no container has been assigned.

The EC program goes into the PSALMS EC website, does a screen scrape of the D&Rs, and downloads them into an Excel document. The program then downloads a Truck Dispatch Report (TDR) and Flight Dispatch Report (FDR) data base and a (Postal Service Alliance Leveraging Multiple Synergies) PSALMS billing file to search against. It takes the D&R and does the search to see if the unbilled D&R tag can be found on the TDR/FDR to identify a container that it can be assigned to. If the D&R is found, it is then compared to D&Rs already billed that are located in the PSALMS billing file. If there is a comparable D&R found, then the D&R is a duplicate and the D&R is not billed again. If the D&R is not found in the billing file, the container found is assigned and the D&R is billed using that container.
If the D&R is not found in the TDR/FDR database, the program goes into a master database to get the corresponding scans. If the scanned data reveals a DECONS, the D&R is deemed invalid and the D&R is not billed. If there is no DECONS scan and there is a CONS scan, then the CONS number is recorded and is used by the program to go into FAMIS to do an additional search of TDR and FDR data. If the program cannot find a container to assign the D&R tag to, then it is noted as “Research Required” and the engineers do more research on the D&R.
[ * ]
1.3.6 Coordinate the Exchange of Information
FedEx has a series of comprehensive daily, weekly, and monthly reports that coordinate information across the FedEx and Postal Service organizations. FedEx will communicate daily with the Postal Service through electronic reports, using EDI 214, Version 4010, as well as face-to-face meetings with on-site ramp personnel.
Daily reports include:
[ * ]
Weekly reports include:
[ * ]
Planning reports are provided monthly and include:

hubs and major sort locations. They also communicate ad hoc and alternate move activity. Flight schedules and area operating plans identify changes to Postal Service headquarters, area offices, and the local operating teams. FedEx and the Postal Service also hold local meetings at ramp locations to manage and correct local issues.
1.3.8 Correct Type and Quantity of Equipment
FedEx will continue to provide a Unit Load Device (ULD) matrix monthly, which lists the planned ULD equipment by day and by week for the month. This information is in the Planning Matrix which will be sent to Postal Service headquarters and the local Postal Service representative in each market.
FedEx also maintains spare aircraft, crews, ULDs, vehicles, and operating equipment which are strategically positioned to ensure on-time operations and to ensure that we meet the Postal Service’s operational requirements.Figure 1-10 lists our ramp and ground equipment that is used to load, move, and manage all air cargo, including Postal Service mail.

throughout the network on schedule.
1.3.9 Assist in Unloading or Loading ULDs to or from Surface Transportation
FedEx will continue to assist in unloading or loading ULDs to and from all surface transportation. FedEx has more than [ * ] ramp personnel across the network. FedEx personnel work with the Postal Service to ensure that the ULDs arriving at the origin or destination ramp are transferred to and from aircraft and trucks expeditiously. We have accommodated this assistance requirement over our 12-year history with the Postal Service and our personnel comply with this requirement routinely to move the mail. Our local ramp managers and staff have solid working relationships with the Postal Service representatives at each ramp location, and those relationships operate to make the Postal Service processes work without interruption to ensure that we meet daily schedule demands.
1.3.10 Scan Material Handling Units (required) or Postal MTE
FedEx performs scans on all handling units to ensure the chain of custody and accountability for all Postal Service handling units tendered to FedEx. All handling units will be scanned consistent with our established best practices. FedEx will perform possession scans, load scans, hub sort scans, hub nest scans, and delivery scans. Scan data will be aggregated and transmitted via electronic EDI to FedEx and Postal Service information technology systems. No scanning of Mail Transport Equipment (MTE) is required as FedEx is not performing the THS function.
1.3.11 Process Mail for Dispatch from the Aviation Supplier’s Facility to the Postal Service Facility
Upon request from the Postal Service, FedEx will process mail for movement via aircraft, tug and dolly, containerized trucks, and bulk trucks as necessary, from our facility to the Postal Service facility.

Before the start of the sort, any EML that has been rolled from the previous Night Sort Operations is to be staged in the appropriate staging area. Any EML which does not move on the scheduled night sort is held for sorting on the next night sort. Any EML that is not scanning correctly will be taken immediately to the Postal Service Re-Label Area. The Postal Service Re-Label Area has been given instructions on how to handle EML with distribution table problems.
FedEx will comply with all requirements and will accept all the statements in the solicitation for this section. The additional charge is for replacing a D&R tag that is missing or becomes illegible. The Postal Service will provide equipment to FedEx to perform this function.
1.3.12 Close-Out, Receive, and Dispatch All Surface Vehicles
FedEx will continue to work closely with all THS providers to close out, receive, and dispatch all surface vehicles. Our streamlined approach will be managed by the FedEx ramp manager at each service point.
1.3.13 Handle Overflow Volumes per Postal Service General Directions
FedEx will continue to work closely with the Postal Service to accept overflow volumes of mail. Our ramp managers, in collaboration with Postal Service managers, will make every effort to accept and process all overflow volumes when possible. FedEx ramp managers at service point locations will coordinate with Postal Service staff to identify overflow situations as early as possible, develop solutions to handle the overflow volumes, and resolve the overflow situation quickly and effectively with zero to minimal impact on mail delivery service schedules.
1.3.14 Cooperate With All Aviation Suppliers in the Transportation Service Chain
At both the PTM management level and the local ramp manager level, FedEx will cooperate with all suppliers in the transportation chain including air carriers, air cargo companies, airport staff, and THS service providers.
Areas of cooperation will include items such as sharing ground handling equipment when one party has equipment breakdowns, sharing joint-use ramps, and working collaboratively to deal with contingency events or irregular operations that would endanger on-time performance.
1.3.15 Enter Data Timely and Accurately
FedEx has developed a series of processes that depend on accurate and timely collection of data(Figure 1-11). The foundation for quickly capturing data in a highly accurate manner is the electronic identification of cargo as it moves from its origin to its destination. Bar code scanning establishes the foundation for FedEx’s near-100% accuracy and high speed of data capture for fast-paced and time-sensitive processes.
![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-K/0001193125-13-290858/g563720056_1.jpg)
Figure 1-11. Electronic Bar Code Scanning
Bar code scanning of tags and ULD devices ensures accurate and timely data capture.
These data capture techniques and system updates allow customers to determine the progress of their cargo from origin to destination. The accuracy of the data capture also allows the network performance reports to be prepared and submitted to the Postal Service. FedEx has been at the forefront of the industry in the development of these rapid data capture technologies and has applied them to all processes in the Postal Service network.

1.3.16 Prepare Required Reports
FedEx has prepared and submitted all required and requested reports over the life of the current Postal Service contract. As requested by the Postal Service, FedEx will continue to provide these reports under the Air Cargo Network contract. Reports submitted under the current contract will be continued as is, or modified as required by the solicitation. These reports include:
[ * ]
In addition to these reports, FedEx will also provide new reports that are required to meet Postal Service requirements. In all reports, we will be diligent in providing accurate, timely information to enable Postal Service oversight and management of the ACN contract.

1.3.17 Perform Verification of Security Seals on Surface Transportation
FedEx will continue to verify all security seals on surface transportation prior to leaving our facility, as we have done since 2001. This will be a physical inspection of security seals on each trailer upon receipt by FedEx. The verification inspection will also be done prior to tendering the mail to the Postal Service. The FedEx ramp manager at each ramp will ensure that all security seals are verified and logged by ramp staff. The process involves verifying the integrity of the seal on the back of the trailer and noting it on the Truck Dispatch Report paperwork.
1.3.18 Ensure the Security of All Mail
It is the mission of FedEx to protect and safeguard all mail from the time it is tendered to FedEx until the time FedEx tenders it to the Postal Service. We accomplish this through a combination of training of staff, physical protection of facilities, and scanning of mail up to nine times from tender to FedEx through tender to the Postal Service. We also run background checks on all employees, and we conduct drug screening to ensure we have a drug-free workplace to decrease the likelihood of security incidents related to the mail while it is in our possession.
We provide initial and annual refresher training on mail handling and on the importance of the security of the mail to all FedEx employees involved in the contract. We have physical protection capabilities at each ramp location including closed-circuit video surveillance, facility access control, intrusion detection, and routine patrols by FedEx or local uniformed security staff. We maintain tight access control at all facilities to ensure that only authorized individuals are allowed into areas processing mail. Individuals attempting to enter or exit a sorting facility must successfully clear established screening checkpoints. These checkpoints:

1.5.1 Delivery – Day Network
Not applicable to Night Network.
1.5.2 Delivery – Night Network
FedEx and the Postal Service have developed efficient and effective coordination processes and procedures over our long relationship to expedite the delivery of mail. All FedEx employees, as they do today, will assist Postal Service employees in both the unloading of inbound surface vehicles and the loading and dispatching of outbound surface vehicles. FedEx routinely transmits reports to the Postal Service (see Section 1.3.16 for report details) on mail delivery status and operational issues. Regularly scheduled meetings enable a broader audience to discuss a wide range of topics, while daily communications focus on tactical issues such as extra volume and late tender. Daily interface between the Postal Service and FedEx occurs via email; phone; and face-to-face meetings among PTM engineers and management, FedEx ramp managers, and local Postal Service contract and operations managers.
FedEx will deliver mail to the Postal Service on or before the latest delivery time (as indicated in Attachment 12) for the Night Network. At all destination service points, FedEx will unload the mail from the ULDs received, scan it, and deliver it to the Postal Service as outlined in Attachment 4, Operating Plan, Night Network. FedEx will accept direct tender of night volume from the Postal Service to satisfy the requirement for the aviation supplier to provide THS functions on the Night Network.
The FedEx matrix plan will cover Night Network. Tender and service commitments by delivery times will be tracked, measured, and reviewed for potential service improvements by the customer service and relationship team within PTM at FedEx.

1.6 Boarding Priority
|
FedEx will adhere to Postal Service boarding priorities as we have done successfully on the Transportation Agreement since 2001. |
In accordance with Postal Service priorities, FedEx will adhere to the boarding priority described in the following sections.
1.6.1 Boarding Priority – Day Network
Not applicable to Night Network.
1.6.2 Boarding Priority – Night Network
In the Night Network, FedEx will load accepted mail in the following mail boarding preference order:
2. | All other classes of mail |
Any repossession of mail by the Postal Service without exercising the rights outlined in this RFP under Repossession of Mail by the Postal Service will be determined by the Postal Service designee, depending on circumstances.
1.7 Frequency
|
FedEx will provide aviation supplier support to meet all Postal Service frequency of service requirements |
The frequency of service for the Night Network is based on 5 days of Postal Service delivery, Monday through Friday. This provides approximately 254 operating days annually (255 in a leap year). Excluded holidays are discussed in section 1.14.5 in this proposal.
1.8 Mail Assignment and Transport – Day Network
Not applicable to Night Network
1.9 Mail Assignment and Transport – Night Network
|
Mail assignment and transport, the heart of the current Transportation Agreement, will also be the core of the new CAN contract and will continue to be a focus for feedback and improvement, |
FedEx will prepare and deliver flight schedules to the Postal Service at least 30 days in advance of the first day of the operating period. These schedules are developed by PTM and are part of the Network Operating Plan as operational documents that convert the plan into action. After receipt of flight schedules, the Postal Service will create dispatch routing instructions based on FedEx flight schedules that subsequently are shown on the Postal Service D&R tag.
Mail Assignment and Transport Process – Night Network defines how the Postal Service will give FedEx tendered mail and illustrates the steps required in the planning process for assignment and transport, as shown inFigure 1-12.

Figure 1-12. Mail Assignment and Transport Process
This process, jointly developed by the Postal Service and FedEx, facilitates on-time delivery.
Once flight schedules and dispatch routing instructions have been exchanged, the Postal Service will show the routing on D&R tags and deliver not less than 75% of total volume assigned to the Night Network outbound flights per the time listed in Attachment 12. The Postal Service will then provide the remaining 25% of total volume at the time specified by location in Attachment 12. “All Mail Due FedEx Time” is outlined in Attachment 12 and is the time that the last piece of mail tendered must be in FedEx’s hands.
1.10 Aviation Provider Planned Accommodation – Day Network
Not applicable to Night Network.
1.11 Aviation Provider Planned Accommodation – Night Network
|
Flexibility to handle additional volume required by the Postal Service is part of our commitment to providing the most dependable, reliable, and customer-focused service. |
FedEx will accept up to 120% of planned capacity in the Night Network for each origin daily. Should tendered mail exceed 120% of planned capacity, FedEx has the option to refuse the excess; however, throughout the current relationship, FedEx frequently has handled volumes tendered by the Postal Service in excess of the guarantee. Such flexibility is part of our commitment to providing the most dependable, reliable and customer-focused service to the Postal Service.
1.12 Treatment of Exceptional Types of Mail
|
Over the past 6 years, FedEx has integrated the special handling requirements associated with the increasing amounts of exceptional types of mail into our normal daily operations. |
Since 2006, the volume of exceptional mail types, including lives, perishables, and HAZMAT, has increased continuously. FedEx provides rigorous training in the handling of exceptional types of mail as part of the training for new employees and annual refresher training.
1.12.1 Treatment of Live Mail
For live mail handling, FedEx will continue to use a multi-step process that covers all aspects of receipt, verification of live mail viability, inspection, scanning, loading, and unloading of both perishable and live mail. The FedEx guidelines include all requirements outlined in the Postal Service Domestic Mail Manual 601, Subsection 9.3.
Prior to contract award, as specified in the Statement of Work, FedEx and the Postal Service will negotiate an attachment that lays out the specifics of transportation of perishable and live mail. Because FedEx has been handling these exceptional types of mail for six years, we expect minimal issues.

1.12.2 Treatment of Perishables
Perishable mail is treated in the same manner as that described in Section 1.12.1.
1.12.3 Treatment of Registered Mail
To accurately track each piece of Registered Mail, FedEx will provide the Postal Service with the following information:
| • | | Aircraft compartment location |
| • | | Actual flight departure time |
| • | | Any accident or irregularities |
| • | | D&R tags indicating final destination air stop. |
FedEx will send an email alerting the Postal Service of Registered Mail that has failed to make its planned dispatch; we will then await instructions from the Postal Service.
1.12.4 Treatment of Hazardous Material (HAZMAT)
FedEx follows and will continue to follow all applicable Federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, OSHA and FAA rules and regulations in the handling of HAZMAT. We provide extensive training to certify Dangerous Goods Specialists to ensure that all Postal Service HAZMAT will be handled in accordance with regulatory requirements. FedEx personnel take annual refresher training on the handling of HAZMAT, which means that all FedEx personnel have up-to-date information on any changes to procedures or policies as well as the review of current procedures. FedEx will comply with all Postal Service requirements for the tagging and treatment of HAZMAT as follows:
| • | | Tagging of hazardous materials |
| • | | ORM-D Airis for air and surface transport;ORM-Dis for surface transport only. |
| • | | Division Class 6.2is permitted only for medical/veterinary use, research or laboratory certification for public health. The shipper must pack these goods to withstand shocks, pressure changes, and other handling conditions. |
| • | | Division Class 9is for miscellaneous materials presenting hazards during transport (solid dry ice, elevated temperature substances, environmentally hazardous substances, lifesaving appliances, asbestos). |
| • | | Hazardous and Dangerous Goods and all other hazardous material. |
| • | | Assignment of hazardous materials |
| • | | Must be tendered at least 2 hours prior to final tender time of flight. |
| • | | Manifest copy and items must be handed to a FedEx representative 2 hours prior to closeout time of flight. |
| • | | Verification of postal manifest includes checking the number of pieces, weight, inclusion of appropriate shipper’s certification in aircraft load manifest, and completeness of pilot notification paperwork. |
| • | | Documentation of refusal to handle HAZMAT includes name, address of mailer and FedEx location, type and amount of HAZMAT, and reason for refusal. |
| • | | Procedures for HAZMAT spills, releases, incidents, and emergencies. In the 12 years that FedEx has worked with the Postal Service, there have been NO exceptions to these procedures: |
| • | | While the HAZMAT is in the possession of FedEx, but not onboard aircraft, damaged HAZMAT items must not be loaded. |

1.13 Offshore Capacity Requirement – Day Network
Not applicable to Night Network.
1.14 Volume Commitment – General Information
|
Throughout the 12-year Transportation Agreement relationship, FedEx has generally had sufficient capacity to handle whatever volume the Postal Service required. |
FedEx will continue our 12-year record of successfully supporting the Postal Service’s dynamic volume requirements and of meeting service level agreements (SLAs) for aviation services. Our knowledge and understanding of the Postal Service mission, operations, culture, and technology provides a non-disruptive, no-risk option for the Postal Service – no learning curve, no initial training for existing employees, no changes in processes. Essentially, all activities will continue in the manner that the Postal Service has enjoyed since the beginning of the strategic alliance with FedEx.
FedEx has the fleet, pilots, facilities, and support staff – including [ * ] A&P-certified aircraft mechanics – to immediately support future Postal Service volume schedules and forecasts. From Day 1 of the new contract, FedEx can handle any Postal Service volume based on historical volumes.Figure 1-13is a 1-day sample from a peak week in December 2011 that clearly shows our ability to support Postal Service volume schedules and forecasts.

| Figure 1-14. Holidays Included in the Solicitation The asterisks indicate widely observed holidays. |
1.15 Operating Periods
FedEx will plan and operate the Night Network in accordance with Attachment 1, Postal Service Operating Periods. Because FedEx has been providing services for 12 years based on Transportation Agreement operating periods very similar to those specified in Attachment 1, the transition to the new contract will be virtually risk-free and indistinguishable to the Postal Service. FedEx will provide to the Postal Service our monthly operating plan 30 days before the beginning of the operating period, and will specify the specific type of airline ULD per origin/destination, and destination of airline ULD – mixed (to be sorted at hub) in those locations that are not loose loaded.
1.16 Ordering Process – Introduction
|
FedEx will use the proven ordering process used successfully under the current Transportation Agreement to meet Postal Service peak and non-peak volume requirements. |
The Postal Service process for ordering air transportation for mail to and from destinations in the contiguous 48 states and Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands is provided at Day 120 for non-peak periods and Day 150 for peak periods.
Because the current ordering process is very similar to that outlined in the ACN statement of work (SOW), FedEx has already demonstrated the ability to work within the specified timeframes. Careful planning means that mail tendered to FedEx will arrive on time at the proper service point, thus maintaining the Postal Service’s historical record for quality service.
1.16.1 Ordering Process – Non-Peak – Day Network
Not applicable to Night Network.
1.16.2 Ordering Process – Non-Peak – Night Network
The non-peak Night Network process will begin with the Postal Service providing FedEx a request for mail volumes that delineates each lane pair (origin and destination) Monday through Friday for the average day. Volumes by lane pair will be specified by weight.Figure 1-15provides further details of this process.

The 4 or 5 weeks that make up each peak operating period include Christmas week so that the requested volume capacity is sufficient to meet Postal Service volume requirements for holiday mail delivery. Both non-peak and peak volume forecasting specify individual origin and destination lane pairs and are expressed in pounds.
The ordering process for peak Night Network is illustrated inFigure 1-16. FedEx and the Postal Service have established and improved both peak and non-peak ordering processes over our 12-year relationship. This alliance has fostered a very effective continuous improvement environment that identifies areas for positive change and implements the changes.

Figure 1-17. Postal Service–Accepted EDI Standards for Scanning and Data Transmissions
FedEx will use these EDI standards for status and operational data as well as for payment information transmission with the Postal Service.
| | |
Standard | | Purpose |
CARDIT | | To convey detailed information about domestic shipments. |
| |
RESDIT | | To receive status information at the handling unit level for domestic mail shipments. |
| |
INVOIC ADV | | Message claiming payment for goods and services supplied under agreed-upon conditions; also serves as specification for Debit Note and Credit Note messages. Postal Service implementation is to provide invoice advice to its transport providers of the items, which comprise amounts payable for transportation services. |
| |
CLAIMS | | Message claiming payment for goods and services supplied under agreed-upon conditions; also serves as specification for Debit Note and Credit Note messages. Postal Service implementation is to provide mechanism for its transport providers to report claims for the mail handling items which comprise amounts payable for transportation services. |
EDI based on the UN/EDIFACT format is ideal technology for the high volume of transactions that will be processed, based on contract requirements. FedEx owns the world’s largest private digitized, value-added network (VAN) for business-to-business data exchange, FedExNet®, which allows us to easily accommodate large data streams. We have successfully used the FedExNet® VAN for the Postal Service since 2001 to transmit and receive operational and status data, as well as payment data. We are very familiar with the Attachment 7 EDI requirements and standards, as we have used CARDIT and RESDIT protocols extensively since 2005 for international postal customers.
The status and operational data, as well as payment data, will be transmitted over the VAN as shown inFigure 1-18. Primary files on the FedEx side reside in the Scanning Database, which stores and transmits scans and service files (shown as SRS, Summary Reporting System) and the PSALMS Revenue Database, which stores invoice and reconciliation files (shown as REV). With EDI, the Postal Service will receive the invoice and reconciliation data from FedEx via a secure mailbox on FedExNet®.

1.22 Payment Procedures
|
The basis of all payments is the scanned information that we will transmit promptly to ensure accurate and complete invoicing and payments. |
In this section we present details of payment procedures, including:
| • | | Rates and Payment General |
| • | | Payment Processing – Night Network – Per Pound. |
1.22.1 Rates and Payment General
The basis of all rates and payments is the scans, beginning with the possession/load scan and ending with the delivery scan at the completion of the FedEx delivery to the Postal Service. FedEx understands that if the delivery scan is not submitted or is not at the correct location, there will be no payment. FedEx team members take great care in handling our customers’ packages. Postal Service shipments enter our sorting system at specific times, are scanned, and then secured in the appropriate containers, trailers, or aircraft.
The FedEx payment process includes electronic remittance advice and electronic funds transfer (EFT) to reduce much of the cost and paperwork involved in issuing payments. Both of these tools reduce check processing costs, while ensuring quick and accurate application of payment. Remittance advice file processing is automatically included with the EDI invoices.
1.22.1.1 Scan Requirements
FedEx will comply with all scanning and data transmission requirements as stated in the solicitation. FedEx leads the transportation industry in scanning and tracking technology. Packages are scanned during our pickup, sort, and delivery processes by handlers and by automated overhead scanners and scanning systems. Scanning enables FedEx and the Postal Service to observe the movement of packages electronically from pickup to delivery for an added level of security and end-to-end tracking of the mail. Using a variety of wireless data collection devices such as PScan and PowerPad as shown inFigure 1-21, we scan D&R tags at each hand-off point, capturing a variety of shipment information, including:
| | |
• Dispatch and routing number • Origin/destination location information • Ship date | | • Exception scans • Type of service • Proof of delivery. |

1.22.3 Payment Processing – Day Network – Per Pound
Not applicable to Night Network.
1.22.4 Payment Processing – Night Network – Per Pound
1.22.4.1 Invoicing
FedEx accepts the solicitation requirements for invoicing and payment for the Night Network based on pounds and completion of scans during the operating periods. We will include additional charges not covered by the automated payments system in our monthly invoices. FedEx will produce an invoice weekly, based on a service week that begins at 0000 hours Saturday and ends at 2359 on Friday. We will submit the invoice by noon on Wednesday in order to receive payments by Wednesday, 3 weeks following the receipt of the invoice.
1.22.4.2 Economic Adjustments
FedEx will comply with all requirements in the solicitation section on Economic Adjustments. Only the non-fuel line haul rate will be economically adjusted. We will use the economic adjustments in Attachment 10, Pricing.
1.22.4.3 Re-Labeling Charge
FedEx will comply with all requirements and will accept all statements in the solicitation for this section. FedEx understands that the Postal Service will pay an additional charge for replacing a D&R tag that is missing or becomes illegible. The Postal Service will provide equipment to FedEx to perform this function.
Re-labeling is an example of our commitment to the Postal Service. In 2002, the Postal Service approached FedEx requesting that we take over the re-labeling function at the Memphis hub. From the time we assumed responsibility for this area, most if not all pieces move out the same day that they arrive at the sort. FedEx re-labels approximately [ * ] pieces per day on a non-contingency day. Approximately [*] times per month, the Postal Service declares a contingency (meaning its SAMS equipment is down in the local market) and the unlabeled handling units are sent to the Memphis hub, where FedEx labels the mail. In these situations, we label between [ * ] and [ * ] handling units of mail and introduce them back into the network, thereby allowing the Postal Service to accomplish mail delivery service to its customers.
1.23 Reconciliation Process
|
FedEx will work collaboratively with the Postal Service to reconcile and resolve all payment issues as expeditiously as possible. |
FedEx will comply with the requirements in the solicitation section entitled Reconciliation Process. The Postal Service Revenue Team and the FedEx Revenue Team have worked together since 2001 to refine many different reconciliation items. Through constant diligence in monitoring the revenue stream for anomalies, we have collaboratively developed the current reconciliation process. With this knowledge and experience with the Postal Service reconciliation process, FedEx will continue to review and refine the reconciliation process to support the Postal Service’s reconciliation requirements and process on the ACN contract.
