Comments To Postal Regulatory Commission On Public Inquiry On Service Performance Dashboard

The Lexington Institute appreciates the opportunity to offer the following comments for the above referenced docket, specifically pertaining to Order No. 6104.

The Postal Regulatory Commission’s (PRC’s) plan to launch a service performance dashboard is an important and positive initiative. It has the potential to spur much greater media and public interest in key reporting data from the U.S. Postal Service (USPS). As such, this is in the public interest and clearly part of the PRC’s regulatory mission.

For the record, the PRC should have regular discussions about dashboards with the U.S. Postal Service’s Office of Inspector General, which recently launched dashboards based on quarterly reporting information.
