USPS policies are now at employees’ fingertips

The Postal Service has made it easier to search corporate policies with the Policy Lifecycle Management System, or PLMS.

The new platform includes a search portal for employees to easily find the most up-to-date version of policy and related documents. During the soft launch, PolicyNet will also remain available as a source to access policies.

PLMS is available to employees on Blue under “Essential Links,” by selecting Policy Lifecycle Management System. Multifactor authentication through USPS single sign-on is required.

The search portal offers:

• Easy search capabilities using keywords or policy titles;

• Quick access to official policy and related documents and the ability to open the latest approved versions directly from search results; and

• A centralized policy library with manuals, directives, procedures, handbooks, publications and guidance documents in one searchable location.

The Policy Management team, reporting to Brand, Design, and Policy in Corporate Communications, will partner across the organization to provide direction and support related to PLMS. The system itself will be maintained by IT.

More resources, including training and general user FAQs, are available on the Policy Management homepage.

For more information about PLMS, contact Policy Management at plmsadmin@usps.gov.
