The Idea： Each carrier has its own freight network through which a package travels and the experience of each package depends on the structure of the network. Ex. Sent books and personal supplies to VSO volunteers in Mongolia

For fun, each year teams race packages from The Supply Chain & Logistics Institute at Georgia Tech, Atlanta, GA (USA) to sites around the world via different international parcel carriers (UPS, Fedex, DHL, USPS). They choose locations to challenge the business processes of the multinational package carriers, then observe the results.

Let’s Carrier see an example first： Cost Delivery Comments Destination：Ulan Bator, Mongolia DHL Estimate by DHL: $134. 32 First!12 Oct Generally regular updates to tracking at 1333 UPS Estimate by UPS: $319. 04 13 Oct at 1113 After departing Incheon, KR on 08 Oct, there were no updates for six days. $227. 74 14 Oct at 1000 Sent, mysteriously, from Japan south to Guangzhou, China and then back north again to Korea. Only one update to tracking between 12 and 16 Oct. $68. 25 04 Nov at 1135 No visibility between leaving Miami (why Miami? ) and arrival at the local post office in Ulan Bator. Fed. Ex USPS

Through the race, an extreme and comprehensive test of the carriers' ability are taking place. The evaluation criteria is conducting by monitoring all carriers while delivering package and comparing each deliver’s performance with the others. The competition result will be published.

During this race, package carriers receive practical message about ： a. Whether their transportation routes and method are productive enough(which means high efficiency and low cost) to compete with others. b. Find their inside problems of respective transport procedures. (Ex. Human error, weak international network …)

After racing, with messages obtained by this race, each participating team can do their own investigation and design new transportation strategy. That is, correcting problems.

The Great Package Race provides monitoring, comparing and correcting chance to their participators. So, we can say it’s a good example of organization control.
