free at last.......
I've recently been thinking about this potentially ground-breaking idea in service.
Here's the scenario.......
A factory has a critical piece of equipment go down and doesn't have the part on hand to fix it. They immediately order the part from the supplier and request "Yesterday Air". The part is then picked up by UPS and taken to a location whereupon it is sent out into space at the speed of light. It is then returned at twice (2x) the speed of light, theoretically arriving before its' departure (of course, distances would have to be determined to effect the correct results). Then it is expedited to the factory location. Back at the factory: immediately after placing the order, they go to receiving where the part is sitting there ready to make the repair.
Advertising campaigns with the message...."You needed it yesterday?.....We can do it!"
Whichever company conquers this service level will surely take the lead in the shipping industry. I think UPS is poised to take the lead in this area. After all, with the recent success in the design and implementation of the PAS/EDD system.........................................................nevermind...............
