Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dr82zp/_uk_domestic) has announced the addition of the ” UK Domestic Express Parcels Report (B2B & B2C) 2014″ report to their offering.
Each sector survey focuses on regular B2B or B2C parcels shippers within the UK, tracking changes in service usage and customer perceptions of the leading carriers and their performance levels. For many senior executives in the express industry the study sets independent KPI’s for internal management initiatives and provides an invaluable competitor benchmark comparison which can work alongside in-house research data such as carriers’ own customer satisfaction surveys. Shippers too will find the survey an invaluable input to carrier selection and monitoring.
The surveys are based on fixed quotas for primary carrier ratings (i.e. carrier used most often), in order to guarantee robust results for each of the main carriers. A rating for the next most often used carrier is also captured, but no quota by carrier is set for them, i.e. these are random. Approximately 1,300 carrier ratings will be collected for this combined analysis, based on primary and secondary usage.
The surveys are conducted via in-depth telephone interviews held in accordance with the Market Research Society Code of Conduct and supported by CATI software. The core sample is selected from a large database of known users of parcel distribution services. Triangle’s interviewers are experienced market researchers who have been carrying out studies with users of express parcels services for many years.
The main areas covered by the report include:
– Market metrics (average volumes, weights)
– Carrier usage (most often used, others used in last 12 months/last 3 years, lapsed usage)
