Streamlining Telework Printing with Outgoing Correspondence Center (OCC)

 
OUTGOING CORRESPONDENCE CENTER
(OCC) FOR THE ENERGY PROGRAM
 
 
Introduction: What is OCC?
 
The Outgoing Correspondence Center (OCC) was created based on an OWCP
initiative to establish one centralized print location. OCC will allow employees
who are in a telework status to print claims related correspondence and have it
mailed out for them from an established location.  The original name was
Energy Centralized Printing (ECP).  This changed to OCC the week of August
3
rd
 to support the OWCP concept.
Longshore (LS) took the lead and established a pilot in Jacksonville for
centralized printing.
 
Introduction: The Team
 
On April 9-10, 2015, a group of DEEOIC employees met in Washington, D.C. to develop
the criteria and requirements for OCC, and based on lessons learned from the LS pilot,
the team developed procedures and a training plan to implement OCC throughout the
Energy district offices and FAB.

Introduction: Why Seattle?
 
 
Users will email their documents to an email group which will be
managed by the Seattle district office.  Seattle was chosen as the site
for centralized printing to support workplace flexibilities and telework.
In  addition, there is a 3-hour time difference between the east coast
and Seattle.  With the back-file conversion being conducted in Seattle
they also have the on-board contract staff to manage this new  process.

Introduction: The Pilot-Jacksonville
 
The Energy pilot began in the Jacksonville district office and FAJ
and launched on Tuesday, May 26, 2015.  Jacksonville was
selected as the pilot based on the size of their office and number
of potential teleworks.  Based on what we learn from the
Jacksonville pilot and post launch survey will determine what
additional changes, if any, need to be made.
