The Task Force conducted extensive outreach to stakeholders and performed in depth research and analysis in order to understand the wide range of challenges facing the USPS. In addition to our August 10, 2018, submission, the Task Force presents here its findings and full list of recommendations.

  • Top 10 Mistakes Parcel Shippers Continue to Make in 2014 What It’S Costing You & How to Fix It!
    PARCEL » TRANSPORTATION » PARCEL OPTIMIZATION Top 10 Mistakes Parcel Shippers Continue to Make in 2014 What It’s Costing You & How to Fix It! August 13, 2014, By Rob Martinez, DLP, CMDSS President & CEO, Shipware, LLC Shippers, here’s a Top Ten list that’s not at all funny! Having met with thousands of parcel shippers over the past 25 years, I’ve compiled a list of recurring mistakes shippers continue to make. And it’s costing shippers big time – into the hundreds of millions annually! The good news is that most of fixes are relatively easy, do not require significant capital outlay, are not overly time consuming, and can produce significant operational improvements and cost savings. Sound good? Let’s go! Here are the Top Ten mistakes in order. 10. Over relying on a single carrier Are you still using a single carrier for the majority of your shipping? Many shippers sole source for convenience or to maximize revenue based incentives with carriers like FedEx and UPS. However, you could realize service improvements and cost reduction by adding additional service providers to your carrier mix. The United States Postal Service (USPS), postal consolidators (FedEx SmartPost, UPS SurePost, UPS Mail Innovations, DHL Global Mail, OSM Worldwide, Newgistics, etc.), as well as regional carriers (OnTrac, Eastern Connection, Spee Dee Delivery Service, LaserShip, Pitt Ohio, and Lonestar Overnight to name a few) offer multiple shipping solutions and benefits to compliment parcel giants UPS and FedEx. A 2012 Shipware survey on shippers’ usage of regional carriers reveals that less than 30% of volume shippers are using regional parcel carriers.

SIVAK and INTERNATIONAL SAMARITAN, on behalf of themselves and all CASE NO.: others similarly situated, Plaintiffs, JURY TRIAL DEMANDED vs. UNITED PARCEL SERVICE CO., Defendant. CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT Plaintiffs Steven Sivak (“Sivak”) and International Samaritan (collectively, “Plaintiffs”), individually on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, bring this Class Action Complaint against United Parcel Service Co., (“Defendant,” or “UPS”), and in support allege as follows: INTRODUCTION 1. This is a class action seeking relief on behalf of all persons who used UPS to ship a package and purchased and paid for additional coverage for loss or damage from UPS. UPS has for years been systematically overcharging customers for the first $100 of declared value coverage, which UPS in its standardized published rates claims to provide for free for each package sent. UPS thus accepts liability for loss or damage for all packages up to $100.00 as part of its service fee and there is no additional charge for the $100 of coverage. Customers shipping products with a value in excess of $100 are able to purchase additional coverage for a fee. The exact UPS disclosure states that “UPS’s liability for loss or damage to a shipment is limited to $100.00 without a declaration of value” and that “The maximum declared value is 2:13-cv-15263-GER-RSW Doc # 1 Filed 12/27/13 Pg 2 of 76 Pg ID 2 $50,000.00 per package.
