If home delivery service is performed only in a certain area, transportation service will be provided in cooperation with a carrier having a nationwide network.

The logistics or freight forwarding of individual products is carried out through several stages of work and transportation through a large number of cargoes, so it is necessary to build an information system to handle these cargoes accurately and smoothly.

Especially in the transportation business, the parcel delivery business requires much more labor than the sales. One courier box requires at least ten people 's hand, and the size of the business varies, but at least 70% of the sales are spent on labor costs.

Looking at the characteristics of the courier business operation, the courier business firstly is the system operation. The courier business must be completed and shipped within the specified time, arriving at the terminal within the specified time, departing in class, and arriving at the office to be delivered at the specified time. Second, it has a characteristic that economical efficiency by joint logistics should be secured. Since the courier service can not make a profit for the service that completes through various stages, the basic operational value of securing the profit by maximizing the handling amount per unit is inherent, which causes the courier worker to suffer from high intensity labor . Third, it is difficult to control the supply of services in the short term. Fourth, the sender may be burdened by the shipper or the burden may be borne by the consignee. Unlike the promise to deal with the shipper, the consignee has a great complexity due to the dualization of the customer who can request different service.
