First delivery

All shipments are processed by service type in a first expired, first out process, as part of standard operations. This means that cycle times are tracked at each point in of the service delivery workflow, and managed with the same quality standards that apply to all customers, in accordance with local regulations. The takeaway: preference is given to your shipment in flow as is best given to any shipment to be delivered first, “first delivery”, exclusive of service type.

This results in more on-time deliveries, a higher degree of customer satisfaction and overall better service. Beyond this, first delivery process aligns with strategies and targets on environmental, social and community topics.
