Describe the usage of technology by Fedex in all its sectors Solution 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.
