Transportation & Distribution, August, 2002
USF Reddaway and USF Dugan, regional carrier units of USFreightways Corp., both received 2001 Carrier Achievement Awards from Hoffman Enclosures. The awards are the highest honors given by Hoffman Enclosures, and USF Reddaway was recognized for the second consecutive year. "We evaluate our carriers annually, but awards are only presented when a carrier achieves a mark higher than 98%.
In the 12 years this awards program has been in existence, only six carriers have qualified for it," said Marlon Philippi, director of logistics for Hoffman Enclosures. The stringent criteria include adherence to delivery schedule, shipment performance, claims-free shipments, billing accuracy, and carrier relationship/services.
