Mailings Over 200 Pieces and Non-Profit Mail Services:
United Mailing Services (UMS) currently holds a mail contract with the State of Wisconsin Department of Administration. These services are currently available to UW-Madison customers who have set up a contract standing order with UMS in ShopUW+.
For help setting up new standing orders with UMS, please see ShopUW+ support. Here you will find links to request ShopUW+ Shopper Skills training as well as a quick reference guide for use in navigating the process.
Once you have set up a standing order through ShopUW+ please contact Tom Diring at UMS for assistance with your upcoming mailing. We ask that you communicate with both UMS and DPPS when scheduling all print and mail projects. DPPS and UMS work closely together to ensure your project stays on track.

Business Reply Mail (BRM) Services:
All University of Wisconsin-Madison departments are eligible to use Permit #33 for business reply mail. There are barcoded envelope templates available that must be customized to include your Return Address and Funding Account in the upper left corner.
Reply mail is first received by FP&M Mail, then forwarded to whatever inter-departmental return address is printed on the reply envelopes. As each returned piece is processed, it will be charged to the funding account on the outside of the business reply envelope, so you’re only charged for pieces that are returned. Please note in addition to First Class return postage, there will be surcharges from the USPS and FP&M Mail.
If you would like to do a business reply mailing, please contact FP&M Mail at 608-262-3881 or bryan.summ@wisc.edu for further instructions.
