Deep Inside LiteBlue is a non-fiction 56 page 6 X 9 Book. It is small enough
to be carried in your back pocket, pocketbook, apron, shirt pocket or even
in your hand. It is a quick read that I know you will enjoy. It is one
employee's opinion that I am sure many others can relate too. There are no
secrets revealed unless you consider people a secret.
The United States Postal Service is known as Blue. The internal
operations of the postal service of the extranet are called LiteBlue, a
domain where employees send, receive and access up-to-date
information about the business. The postal plant professionally known
as a processing and distribution center (P&DC) is where all the mail
collected in the postal service is processed deep behind the scenes.
The facility is a sight unseen and unheard of by many customers in the
general public. I used to believe that when I handed my letter or
package to a postal employee that was the end of mailing. It is actually
the beginning.
Deep Inside LiteBlue is all about employees. We are doing a lot of
things well and in many aspects we are struggling with the transition
from the industrial age to the information in the processing plant.

Introduction to the plant
Releasing the babysitter and unleashing the knowledge worker
Voice of the employee
High speed postal technology

Equipment failure
