Technology
- New technology such as PDA/GPS, automatic lift gates will be using by the company, which may lead to the cost go up higher.
- Require training to the people when introducing new technology.
Company
- Through the new change of goal, Fast Track Couriers is expecting to expand business in the metropolitan area so that small to medium package deliveries market share increase by 7.5%
Structure
- Company structure may need to expand such as adding another trucking manager because of the expanding trucking team.
