The USPS/MTAC MOVE Update Initiative, led by Angelo Wider and Joel Thomas, focuses on improving mail quality through a collaborative effort between USPS and the mailing industry. The initiative aims to address and reduce costs associated with Undeliverable As Addressed (UAA) mail, promote service improvements, and ensure compliance with established standards. Key objectives include enhancing communication, recognizing cost impacts, and encouraging industry feedback for effective implementation. A sub-committee has been formed for recommendations, with updates scheduled for December 2002 and ongoing discussions.
