1 PRCEL SHIPPERS MKE MOVES TO OFFSET ECONOMIC FORCES Part 1: Results of the PRCEL nnual Best Practices Survey By Marll Thiee What a year for the PRCEL shipping inustry! This is the year that will pbably reefi ne our inustry for years to come. Why? Transportation companies recognize opportunities. n as more companies see potential in the parcel market, we will have change. But it is not just the transportation companies that see opportunities; it is you, as shippers, who are creating the nee for more competition in the marketplace., your parcel volume may be stagnant but your rive to lower costs (your number one challenge in 08) is pushing the marketplace to create more transportation options in the elivery of packages. s you rea thugh this year s PRCEL Best Practices Survey results, co-conucte by PRCEL an Morgan Stanley, it will become obvious that with s repositioning of its merica service offerings, shippers are consiering more alternatives than an. They are making sure there is a competitive lanscape as they turn to the, regional carriers, consoliators an transportation companies for some relief on pricing. The question remains, however; can these peripheral companies compete with the gol service stanars set by an. But an are not sitting on the laurels; they have become sensitive to the changing lanscape an have been careful not to price themselves out of the market. Rate increases have been minimal an iscounts have impve slightly. To track your moves this year, we actually conucte an aitional mi-year survey. Since Morgan Stanley conucte its survey in March 08, before the major announcements by, we opte to conuct a survey in ugust to note trens after the announcement. (Morgan Stanley will conuct another survey later this fall to continue to look at trens; please take the time to fi ll out that survey as well.) The biggest change: earlier this year, Morgan Stanley aske how many of you ha change primary omestic carriers in the past six months. Six percent change a carriers an 1 switche gun carriers. When aske similar questions in ugust, 3 of shippers sai that they ha change carriers in the last 12 months an 2 of shippers anticipate that they will change carriers in the upcoming 12 months. What will your peers o in the next 12 months? Will they inee move to more, regional, consoliator an moes of transportation? Will, an price accoringly? When will the have its volume iscount pgrams entrenche to be more competitive? Stay tune. We will continue to monitor trens in the inustry an report them to you. The results of the PRCEL ugust survey are base on 443 responses. We thank those who took the time to complete the survey; it is lengthy but by fi nishing it, you have helpe us track an report on inustry trens. Morgan Stanley, a global fi nancial services fi rm an a market leaer in securities, investment management an creit services, coconucts the survey to help the clients make well-foune ecisions on transportation investments. In the vember issue of PRCEL, we continue the survey results focusing on the operations sie of the parcel inustry. We will elve into packaging, technology, management challenges an a host of other concerns for those involve in logistics. lso in vember, look for the results of an aitional survey we conucte with Traffi c Worl on the trens in shipping an hanling charges another hot issue in this economy!
