THE BLURRED LINES OF RESPONSIBILITY IN AIR CARGO CUSTOMER SERVICE
Many transportation service providers have long recognized the importance of customer service. For others, however, customer service has traditionally been of a lesser concern. The recent trend is a growing emphasis on the competitive advantages that superior customer service can provide. Many shipping networks rely on multiple organizations, each with a different attitude toward customer service and each with a different customer service level. In this paper, the issue of "blurred lines of responsibility" in customer service is explored, with a focus on Manitoba, Canada, and shippers that use air cargo to move goods to and from the province of Manitoba and surrounding regions.
