USPS is making progress consolidating operations in regional processing and distribution centers – RPDCs, in particular at the Richmond VA facility where it kicked off the national effort, the postal inspector general has said.
Launched in July 2023, the Richmond RPDC consolidated operations from various facilities in the surrounding metro areas. USPS projects that the $25.4 million investment will save $185 million over 10 years by reducing mail processing labor and transportation costs, and by closing two leased annexes.
