It's no wonder that David McCaskill is so concerned about this matter, as one of the largest express companies in the United States, UPS's largest fixed assets, one is their huge fleet of own aircraft, the other is their huge container logistics vehicles and logistics distribution vehicles for urban transportation, and the annual expenditure of the fleet and fleet accounts for almost 60% of the overall operating costs of the entire UPS!

The huge number of UPS city distribution vehicles and the corresponding fuel consumption account for almost 14% of the entire UPS operating costs, not to mention that UPS will retire to a batch of express delivery vehicles in an orderly manner every year, and will also purchase a number of new cars, which is also a big expense.

Therefore, if the situation is really as said, there is a 100 kilometers of fuel consumption of only 4 to 5, the volume of the container is about 3 cubic meters, the purchase unit price is not more than 3000 US dollars, you can directly reduce the overall operating cost of UPS by more than 10%!

With a cost reduction of more than 10%, the president of an express delivery group has every reason to ask the board of directors for a handsome reward.

"Where can I see this car?" David McCaskill asked Paul Wolfowitz, "I want to see what this car looks like right now." ”

Paul Wolfowitz thought for a moment and said, "There must be eBay fulfillment points. ”

David McCaskill immediately got up: "Let's go and have a look." ”

Hearing is believing, and after hearing Paul Wolfowitz say this, David McCaskill decided to see for himself what the car was like.

....................................

The plants in Statham and Lalefort have welcomed a big customer!

UPS President David McCaskill and Senior Executive Vice President Paul Wolfowitz visited the factory in person to order a batch of three-wheeled motorcycles for UPS.

The inspection process went well, but when David McCaskill asked for further negotiations on the price and that they were willing to give an order for more than 2,000 three-wheeled motorcycles, Patrick Dorton, the general manager of the factory, told David McSkill and Paul Wolfowitz with a sad face: "Mr. McAskell, Mr. Wolfowitz, I'm sorry, we are very honored to work with UPS, but your order can only be scheduled for 5 months." ”

Another implication of this statement is that at the same time, there is no need to negotiate the price.

"Why?"

David McCaskill was not a good talker, and Paul Wolfowitz, as senior executive vice president, frowned and asked Patrick Dotton, "Mr. Dodon, this is an order worth millions of dollars. ”

"Mr. Wolfowitz, I'm very sorry, but we can't help it, the production capacity is really not enough, and we didn't expect our three-wheeled express delivery vehicle to be so popular," Patrick Dorton's smile became more and more apologetic, but his attitude was still resolute: "We have more than 20,000 orders from eBay, USPS and FedEx, so we ......"

Looking at David McCaskill and Paul Wolfowitz, Patrick Dorton had a look of regret on his face.

David McCaskill and Paul Wolfowitz frowned at the same time.

The two of them are not surprised by eBay's additional orders, but USPS and FedEx, UPS's biggest competitors, have also placed orders?

After all, UPS can see the advantages of this three-wheeled motorcycle, and it can't expect USPS and FedEx to be blind, but USPS and FedEx have placed orders, and UPS doesn't even know about it, which is a big problem.

Paul Wolfowitz tentatively asked Patrick Dodon, "Mr. Dodton, have you delivered to USPS and FedEx?"

Patrick Wharton shrugged his shoulders and said to Paul Wolfowitz: "UPS and FedEx orders will wait until 2 months later, and our fund will deliver eBay orders in these two months." ”

USPS and FedEx orders won't be delivered until 2 months later?

Patrick Wharton's words made Paul Wolfowitz and David McCaskill both breathe a sigh of relief: it is good that they are not preempted too much by USPS and FedEx.

Just now, David McCaskill and Paul Wolfowitz thought that UPS's intelligence gathering department had been abolished, and they didn't react to the actions of competitors at all, but since USPS and FedEx have not yet begun to equip this three-wheeled motorcycle, then there is no problem, but UPS must not be the last courier company to be equipped with this three-wheeled motorcycle, otherwise neither of them will be able to explain to the group board of directors.

The two looked at each other, and Paul Wolfowitz whispered to Patrick Dorton, "Mr. Dorton, UPS must not be the last company to equip this three-wheeled motorcycle, so what do we need to do to get the car at the same time as USPS and FedEx?"

Patrick Dotton frowned and thought for a moment, and then lowered his voice and said, "Method, it's not without ......"

————————————

For UPS, USPS and FedEx, the three major American express giants, they welcome the emergence of three-wheeled express vehicles, because the load capacity, warehouse volume and driving speed of this three-wheeled express vehicle fully meet their needs, and at the same time reduce the purchase cost of the vehicle to one-fifth of the previous one, and also reduce the fuel consumption to one-sixth of the original, the cost of saving, but all turned into profits!

If it weren't for the fact that it was necessary to observe the stability and reliability of this three-wheeled motorcycle for a period of time, the CEOs of the three major express delivery giants would be eager to replace all their urban express vehicles with this three-wheeled motorcycle.

But compared to the management, the front-line express delivery employees of UPS, USPS and FedEx are not happy: compared with the original van, this three-wheeled motorcycle is naturally far from comparable in terms of ride comfort and space.

The three major express companies have trade unions, and the unions immediately took action to fight for the rights of workers and protest against the company's sacrifice of employee comfort for profit.

For the three major express companies, they have been prepared for this situation, and in the face of protests and negotiations from the trade union, they gave a plan: this three-wheeled motorcycle has a stage effect on reducing the operating costs of the enterprise, so it is impossible not to use this three-wheeled motorcycle, but considering that the comfort of this three-wheeled motorcycle is indeed not as good as the previous express delivery vehicle, it actually reduces the work welcome of employees, so the company is willing to compensate employees by way of salary increase.

As soon as this plan came out, the workers were immediately happy: can they get a raise? Yes, if they can get a raise, then the conditions are not unacceptable at all.
