FedEx Corporation is a US multinational courier delivery services company headquartered in
Memphis, Tennessee. The name \"FedEx\" is a syllabic abbreviation of the name of the
company\'s original air division, Federal Express, which was used from 1973 until 2000. The
company is known for its overnight shipping service, but also for pioneering a system that could
track packages and provide real-time updates on package location (to help in finding lost
packages), a feature that has now been implemented by most other carrier services.
FedEx Corporation is an import/export company, incorporated October 2, 1997 in Delaware.
FDX Corporation was founded in January 1998 with the acquisition of Caliber System Inc. by
Federal Express. With the purchase of Caliber, FedEx started offering other services besides
express shipping. Caliber subsidiaries included RPS, a small-package ground service; Roberts
Express, an expedited shipping provider; Viking Freight, a regional, less than truckload freight
carrier serving the Western United States; Caribbean Transportation Services, a provider of
airfreight forwarding between the United States and the Caribbean; and Caliber Logistics and
Caliber Technology, providers of logistics and technology solutions. FDX Corporation was
founded to oversee all of the operations of those companies and its original air division, Federal
Express.
FedEx is a proponent of e-commerce. They realize that through prosumption, having
customers conduct their business online, they save the cost of additional employees and phone
costs. Industry Analysis within the industry are two types of companies. There are combination
carriers, which are primarily passenger airline companies that also carry cargo. And then there
are all-cargo companies like Federal Express which only carry cargo, have fleets of planes,
usually fly at night, have ground transportation, and personnel for door-to-door pick-up and
delivery. The all cargo companies control 90% of the domestic cargo companies. Competition in
the all cargo segment of the industry includes: UPS, DHL, Airborne Express and U.S. Postal
Service. The entire industry delivers roughly 5.6 million packages each day. FedEx currently has
a 45 “ 50 % market share and thus delivers 2.8 million packages each day.
FedEx is organized into operating units, each of which has its own version of the wordmark
designed in 1994 by Lindon Leader of Landor Associates, of San Francisco. The Fed is always
purple and the Ex is in a different color for each division and platinum for the overall corporation
use. The original FedEx logo had the Ex in orange; it is now used as the FedEx Express
wordmark. The FedEx wordmark is notable for containing a subliminal right-pointing arrow in
the negative space between the \"E\" and the \"X\", which was achieved by designing a
proprietary font, based on Univers and Futura, to emphasize the arrow shape. In August.

Growth and Structure Provide an Integrated Portfolio of Services at FedEx
Many companies have goals designed to achieve growth and diversification of the markets they serve, both product and geographical. These long-term goals are often maintained even during economic recessions such as that experienced at the end of the first decade of the twenty-first century. Growth can be achieved by developing new products and services internally or by acquiring other organizations. Growth by external acquisition has been popular because it is often a faster and less risky means of achieving the desired growth. FedEx’s corporate strategy involved both of these approaches.
In 1971, Federal Express Corporation was founded in Little Rock, Arkansas. Early in its history, FedEx used internal development to achieve rapid growth. By 1983, Federal Express had achieved $1 billion in revenue; it made its first acquisition in 1984, Gelco Express International, launching its operations in the Asia Pacific region. Five years later,
Federal Express purchased Flying Tigers to expand its international presence. That same year, Roberts Express (now FedEx Custom Critical) began providing services to Europe. In 1995, FedEx acquired air routes from Evergreen International with authority to serve China and opened an Asia Pacific Hub in Subic Bay, Philippines, launching the FedEx AsiaOne Network. By 1996, FedEx Ground achieved 100 percent coverage in North America.
In 1998, FedEx acquired Caliber Systems, Inc. and cre- ated FDX Corporation. This series of acquisitions made FedEx a $16 billion transportation powerhouse. But the acquisitions and growth continued. In 1999, Federal Express Corporation acquired Caribbean Transportation Services. In January 2000, FDX Corporation was renamed FedEx Corporation. Also in 2000, FedEx Trade Networks was created with the acquisitions of Tower Group International and World Tariff.
In 2001, FedEx acquired American Freightways; in 2004, it acquired Kinko’s for $2.4 billion and also Parcel Direct; and it completed its acquisitions in 2007, with its purchase of Chinese shipping partner DTW Group in order to obtain more control over and access to services in secondary Chinese cities.
As suggested by the large list of acquisitions, FedEx’s strat- egy to achieve growth was realized. It also diversified the c ...

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

3. Brief introduction of FedEx
FedEx, originally know as Federal
Express Corporation, is the first overnight
express delivery company in the world,
and the largest in the United States. The
company headquartered in Memphis,
Tennessee. Fred Smith is the founder,
chairman, president, and CEO of FedEx.
4. He got a “C” for the idea of
FedEx
Fred Smith had a great interest in
flying, and became an amateur pilot as a teen.
He entered Yale University in 1962. While
attending Yale, he wrote a paper for an
economics class, outlining overnight delivery
service in a computer information age. Folklore
suggests that he received a C for this paper,
although in a later interview he claims that he
Fred Smith
told a reporter, "I don't know what grade,
probably made my usual C", while other tales
suggest that his professor told him that, in
order for him to get a C, the idea had to be
feasible. The paper became the idea of FedEx
(for years, the sample package displayed in
the company's print advertisements featured a
return address at Yale).
5. Ship in a way never had been done
before
In 1970, Smith purchased the controlling interest in an
aircraft maintenance company, Ark Aviation Sales,and by
1971 turned its focus to trading used jets. On June 18, 1971,
Smith founded Federal Express with his $4 million
inheritance, and raised $91 million in venture capital. In
1973, the company began offering service to 25 cities, and it
began with small packages and documents and a fleet of 14
Falcon 20(DA-20) jets. His focus was on developing an
integrated air-ground system, which had never been done
before.

8. Operating units and logos
FedEx is organized into operating
units, each of which has its own
version of the wordmark, designed by
Lindon Leader of Landor Associates, of
San Francisco, in 1994. [10] The Fed is
always purple and the Ex is in a
different color for each division and
grey for the overall corporation use.
The original "FedEx" logo had the Ex
in orange; it is now used as the FedEx
Express wordmark. The FedEx wordmark
is notable for containing a hidden
right-pointing arrow in the negative
space between the "E" and the "X",
which was achieved by designing a
proprietary font, based on Univers and 8
Futura, to emphasize the arrow shape.
