Implementation of PNOP and CSI resulting
chaotic working of Parcel Hub
Department has implemented PNOP
and CSI without considering the effect of implementation of these projects on
the working of the offices. Offices are facing the following problems:-
1.
CSI network is very slow therefore, working of set
suffers adversely.
2.
Staff is not well aware with CSI. Staff should be
imparted training.
3.
Before deciding L-1 and L-2 hubs, Circle
administration should discuss with circle unions and decide logical mapping of
L2 Parcel Hubs with L1 Parcel Hubs. Back
routing of the parcels should be avoided while re-designing the sorting
pattern.
4.
Cities which are booking more Parcels have not been
identified as L-I Parcel Hub. One case is of Cuttack RMS. In Haryana Circle
also remapping of some L-1 & L2 offices require.
5.
Sufficient accommodation and adequate infrastructure
(particularly hardware and software) should be provided for Parcel hubs.
6.
Before implementation of PNOP, mapping problems arising
out of C.S.I implementation should also be settled. So that the Staff are not put to undue stress.”
7.
The staff of Bangalore Sorting Division have become a
casualty in the mayhem created by PNOP roll out. The bitter truth is PNOP has
been partially rolled out. Parcel hub is functioning in a modified building
layout with modern equipment. But in old Parcel Net Software. After PNOP roll
out, deposit of unopened parcels is spiraling. The staff in parcel hub are
working under severe mental stress because of several shortcomings in PNOP.
8. Despite four weeks having been
elapsed after PNOP roll out, normalcy in the working of Parcel has not been
restored. Bangalore Sorting Division is already reeling under undesirable
effects of severe staff shortage. Staff are being diverted from administrative
units to clear the back log of unopened parcel bags. Administrative work is
also hampered because of diversion.
Special sets are being constituted with existing man power to lessen the
deposit of unopened parcel bags.
9. Circle Secretary R-III Union of Haryana, Orissa and Karnataka and other Circles have also taken up their problems on implementation
of PNOP & CSI with respective CPMGs. Their letters are enclosed for kind
perusal & information.
We urge upon you to hold
on the PNOP and CSI and implement these projects after providing proper
facilities of networking, space and training to the staff.
With regards.
Yours sincerely,
