Colleagues at East Finchley delivery office in London have passed the Basic Skills and Standards and Workplace Management gateways of One Plan.

New delivery office manager Romulo Vinhas Chaves and his team took over the One Plan work packages from a retiring colleague.

One Plan in delivery consists of five strands that are part of a system designed to support our colleagues and ensure we comply with national standards. The next strand is Indoor Optimisation.

Romulo said: ‘I started at this office at the beginning of April. I knew the manager before me was going through this training plan.

‘I really like the idea of One Plan, which is about reorganisation of the workplace, quality, adherence to standards and freeing up time for managers to focus on other activities.’

Senior change lead John Deere said Romulo and the East Finchley team had ‘performed brilliantly’ in picking up Basic Skills and Standards and completing the Workplace Management strands of One Plan.

‘That’s two gateway assurances passed and we’re now ready for Indoor Optimisation,’ he added.

Romulo, who joined Royal Mail on a graduate scheme, said One Plan complements what he learned.

Postman Luke Mankutu said: ‘One Plan is brilliant for harmonising the way we work at different offices. It brings everyone together and everything in line.’
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Yes, indeed.
Every day I just want to go to work, sort and deliver the mail properly and go home but any claptrap about "Optimisation" and "Gateways" could only make me more irritable and less effective. :arrrghhh
It looks to me as if about a third of them on that photograph have managed a smile. :sad:

Our office has gone through this reorganisation as well. Trouble comes when the actual volumes don't match up to the 'forecast' and/or resourcing issues present themselves. And when they do, well it is no better than the old 'NO PLAN'. It does give our managers another reason to justify why they are needed - to produce the one-plan for the day ahead. Let us not forget the time spent (1 year +) by 'the planners' in all this. :roll:

World Class Mail bastardised child told you all about one plan as the postman/manager says it standardises (management speek) everything so every office is the same bit like automatons zombies of royalmail and we will all vote how MOYA wants us to vote! So I take it East Finchley has surrendered or is this another management coup parading as postmen/women who actually work day in day out!

100%

I read that rubbish and had no idea what it was about ?

Lot's of fancy PR gobbledygook but no actual explanation what the hell it is?

Pathetic

The old timer at back centre looks pleased

"How the hell do i get out of here quick" springs to mind

I'm not sure why but I'm trying to understand what we're meant to aspire to. :crazy:
"One Plan in delivery consists of five strands that are part of a system designed to support our colleagues and ensure we comply with national standards. The next strand is Indoor Optimisation."
Right, so if there are five strands and "The next strand is Indoor Optimisation" is "Indoor Optimisation" the second, third or what strand and if so what are the previous ones ? :roll: :cuppa :cuppa
