Each one has left their distinct<br \/>\nmark on the organization.<\/p>\n<p>Many seasoned postal employees will remember Marvin Runyon\u2014known across the ranks as \u201cCarvin\u2019 Marvin\u201d\u2014for his sweeping attempt to restructure the Postal Service during his tenure.<\/p>\n<p>When Louis DeJoy was appointed, he introduced the \u201cDelivering for America\u201d plan, which led to a significant transformation in our operational structure. He launched the Sorting and Delivery Centers (S&amp;DCs) and restructured many of our mail processing centers in an effort to modernize the network.<\/p>\n<p>Following DeJoy\u2019s departure, Doug Tulino stepped in as interim PMG. He brought a wealth of postal knowledge and a steady hand during a transitional time. Under his leadership, the Postal Service remained stable and focused, easing the transition between permanent leaders.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the Postal Service Board of Governors has appointed David Steiner as the 76th postmaster general. Steiner brings with him a strong background in corporate leadership, having served as president and CEO of Waste Management and, most recently, as a board member at FedEx Corporation.<\/p>\n<p>Steiner steps into this role at a pivotal time. The \u201cDelivering for America\u201d plan remains a central focus, but there are ongoing challenges ahead. Among them is the modernization of our fleet.<\/p>\n<p>The rollout of the Next Generation Delivery Vehicle (NGDV) has been slower than anticipated. Additionally, Vehicle Maintenance Facilities (VMFs) across the country are in urgent need of proper resources, including tow trucks. Towing continues to be one of the largest, non-accidentrelated expenses for the VMF. We need better tools to manage our fleet effectively.<\/p>\n<p>To our new postmaster general, I offer this message: The 600,000-plus employees of the Postal Service are dedicated, hardworking and committed to serving the American public every single day. With collaboration among the postal unions, management associations and leadership, we will continue to move forward and face every challenge head-on.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to meeting PMG Steiner and working together to ensure the continued success of the Postal Service.
