OFFICE
MEMORANDUM
Sub: Standardization of Nomenclature of
Mails Offices and Rationalization of number of Mail Business Centres
(MBCs)/Business Post Centres (BPCs)
The matter relating to
standardization of nomenclature for various categories of mail offices as well
as the need for rationalization of number of Mail Business Centres (MBCs)/
Business Post Centres (BPCs) was under consideration of the Directorate. This
was necessitated by operational complexities being faced on account of
functional overlap between mail offices and increased possibility of misrouting
of mail due to lack of standardized nomenclature.
2. After a review,
the following instructions are issued with respect to standardized nomenclature
for mail offices and rationalization of number of BPCs/MBCs.
(a) The nomenclature
of mail offices across the county would be as follows:
(i) Sorting mail offices located at Railway
station: XXX RMS (e.g. Lucknow
RMS)
(ii) Sorting mail offices located at Airport
premised/near the airport: XXX APSO (e.g. Chennai APSO, for Chennai Airport
Sorting Office)
(iii) Sorting mail office not located at Railway
Station or Airport premises/near the airport: XXX Sorting (e.g. Panvel Sorting)
(iv) Transit Mail Office (TMO) located at
Railway Station: XXX RSTMO (e.g. Hazrat Nizamuddin RSTMO)
(v) TMO located at Airport/near Airport: XXX
APTMO (e.g. Chennai APTMC)
(vi) TMO located at Bus Stand/Station: XXX
BSTMO (e.g. Bangalore
Bus Station TMO)
(vii) Automated Mail Processing Centre (AMPC)
wherever such centres exist/to be set up: AMPC XXX (AMPC Delhi).
(viii) Book Now Pay Later (BNPL) Processing
Centres for Speed Post with direct bag closing facility for Sorting hubs: BNPL
SP Hub XXX (e.g. BNPL SP Hub Kashmiri Gate, BNPL SP Hub BPC Anna Road)
(ix) The existing nomenclature for Paper
Sorting Offices PSOs) would continued as XXX PSO (e.g. Chennai PSO)
(b) Name of the
city/town should be suffixed to the name of the office so standardized for
clarity in case of offices not having the name of the city. Standard
nomenclature should be used on bag labels, manifests/mail lists, correspondence
etc. The signage/name board of the mail offices/TMO should also carry
standardized nomenclature and should be prepared in accordance with guidelines
contained in the Corporate Branding Manual of the Department.
(c) Mail office would
no more be called Mail Business Centre (MBC). Wherever mail offices have been
named as MBCs, the name of such offices should be restored as “XXX RMS” or “XXX
Sorting” as the case may be. All MBCs opened in the past in addition to the
BPCs may be closed/merged with the BPCs concerned. Delivery of mail to the bulk
addressee may be done through Speed Post Sorting Hub/Intra-Circle Hub for Speed
Post, through CRCs for Registered mail and through mail offices for
unregistered mail wherever necessary. Accordingly a list of mail offices and
BPCs may be sent in the form of ‘MIS on mail operations’.
(d) The number of
Business Post Centres (after closure/merger of MBCs) may further be
rationalized by the Circles in order to eliminate/minimize fragmentation in processing
of such mail.
Receipt of this O.M may be
acknowledged to Shri M.B.Gajbhiye, ADG (MO). An action report on standardized
nomenclature, with a list of all mail offices (including BPCs) may be sent
within 60days of receipt of this memo.
